A STEP UP IN POWER. AND MENACE.
Timeless design, legendary past, and unobtrusive modern technology.
Thunderstroke 116
The air-cooled Thunderstroke 116 produces 162Nm of raw torque for passing power in all 6 gears, giving you the power to leave everything—and everyone—in your exhaust.
Head-turning Design
Turn heads on every corner with simple, purposeful design showcasing bobbed fenders, exposed rear shocks and a steel welded tube frame. It's an invitation to make it your own.
4" Ride Command Touchscreen
The 4" touchscreen maintains a classic aesthetic by disguising itself as an analog gauge. Use it as a speedo and a tach, but it also provides turn-by-turn navigation, controls ride modes, lets you answer and decline calls, and manage your music from any Bluetooth-connected device.
THE BEAUTY IS IN THE DETAILS.
The result of fine American craftsmanship: no detail overlooked.
Black, and more black
Dark by design with premium gloss-black finishes from fender to fender.
19" Machined Cast Wheel
The 19" machined cast front wheel with ABS adds to the menacing stance and will beg you to roll the throttle.
Ride with confidence.
With a low seat height, a solo saddle, and mid-mount foot pegs that keep your feet underneath you, the Chief gives every rider complete control.
MODERN TECHNOLOGY HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT.
More of what you need, less of what you don't.

Off the line, every Chief Dark Horse comes with keyless ignition, USB charging port, cruise control, ABS, and super-sticky Pirelli Night Dragon tires.
Light Your Way
Full LED lighting provides great visibility to the road ahead.

Indian Motorcycle - Powerplus
We have raised the bar for American motorcycles with our most powerful engine to date, the PowerPlus. The all-new 108 cu in, liquid-cooled V-twin engine delivers a class leading 122 hp and 128 ft-lbs of torque, establishing a new standard for V-twin performance.
TESTED, REFINED, PROVEN
We put the PowerPlus through the industry's most rigorous development and testing program. We piled on almost one million miles of simulated testing, including state-of-the-art dyno testing and over 250,000 miles on the road.
POWER YOU CAN DEPEND ON
The PowerPlus motor's overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder deliver incredible V-twin power. Hydraulic valve lash adjusters and hydraulic camshaft chain tensioners make it easy to maintain and reliable.
ALL-NEW POWERTRAIN
Six-speed transmission with true overdrive, assist clutch to reduce effort and three ride modes - Rain, Standard and Sport. Now riders can customize throttle mappings and traction control settings to their riding preferences.
ICON HERITAGE
A nod to Indian Motorcycle's iconic history, the new PowerPlus motor is named after one of our original motorcycles, produced from 1916 to 1924.
