Description

Draped in **125th Anniversary Red with Black Crystal**, the 2026 Indian Motorcycle® Chief® Vintage 125th Anniversary Edition looks like it rolled out of a legend and straight into your garage. The color has that deep, celebratory glow—rich red that catches the light, sharpened by dark, sparkling contrast—so even standing still it feels like it’s already halfway down a backroad.



Twist the grip and the **Thunder Stroke 116** answers with that unmistakable **V-Twin** heartbeat—air-cooled, pushrod **OHV**, and built for the kind of torque you feel more than you measure. With **120 ft-lbs at 2,900 rpm**, it doesn’t beg to be revved; it just leans into the moment and surges forward with confident, old-soul muscle. The **fuel-injected** setup keeps the response crisp, while the **6-speed manual** lets you choose whether today’s ride is an easy roll through town or a long, gear-clicking escape.



This is a cruiser that’s happy doing cruiser things: long, low, and planted with a **64-inch wheelbase**, a relaxed **29° rake**, and a seat height of just **27 inches**—the kind of stance that invites you to settle in and stay out. A strong **aluminum frame** keeps it composed, with a **telescopic fork** up front and a **twin shock** rear setup that’s **air adjustable** and preload-ready for dialing in your ride.



The road feel comes through a matched set of **16-inch** aluminum wheels wearing **Metzeler CRUISETEC™** tires, while **hydraulic discs** front and rear—**11.7 inches** each—deliver confident stopping power. And when the day stretches into night, **LED lighting** keeps the way ahead clean and bright.



Riding solo suits it perfectly: a **one-piece vinyl seat**, classic **kickstand**, and smart modern touches like **RIDE COMMAND™ GPS**, **Bluetooth® audio**, and **handlebar controls** that keep everything right where it should be—under your hands, and under your control.
