While Indian's history may not be as continuous as that of its rival Harley-Davidson, it is no less of a storied brand and one with deep roots in American motorcycling history. The '17 Chief Classic faithfully celebrated Indian's most legendary model with a machine befitting of the title 'Chief'. Powered by Indian's award-winning Thunder Stroke® 111ci V-twin and featuring all the modern niceties of anti-lock brakes, electronic cruise control, keyless ignition and more—it still retained the skirted fenders and legendary good looks that made the model famous—along with an illuminated headdress on the front fender, harkening back to when that feature was introduced 70 years hence.
This Chief Classic was originally specified in Burgundy Metallic but was the recipient of a custom stars-and-stripes paint job that's wholly appropriate for a motorcycle rich in American heritage. Acquired new by the vendor and having traveled only 1,294 miles since leaving the showroom floor, it has been on static display the last few years and as such recommissioning is recommended prior to active use.
