Indian Motorcycle has taken the wraps off a fully customised Indian Chief Classic at the International Motorcycle Show in New York City.
Conceptualised and designed by Indian Motorcycle's Industrial Design team, the "Big Chief Custom" is the first custom Indian Chief created around the 2014 models.
The custom features an array of genuine Indian Motorcycle aftermarket accessories, along with a custom paint scheme and billet girder front fork.
Designed, machined and built in-house, the girder fork features fully machined uprights and sand-blasted billet cross members with a custom 23-inch front wheel. The custom front valance fender maintains the classic look of the Indian Chief. A custom shock and headlight complete the front end package.
Another nod to the long history of Indian Motorcycle is the springer style seat, though updated through a cantilevered design. It’s combined with the standard single rear shock.
The "Pinnacle Series" of Indian Motorcycle accessories on the Big Chief Custom includes the cam cover, primary cover, chrome grips and beach bars. Other custom accessories include war bonnet floorboard pads, a heel shifter and chrome rear fender bumper.
