Indian Chief Bobber Dark Horse (2022)

Indian Chief Bobber Dark Horse (2022)

The Indian Chief Bobber Dark Horse is a masterclass in minimalist design, where raw power meets unadulterated style. Built on a timeless steel-tube frame, this American V-twin icon is powered by the potent Thunderstroke motor, delivering a riding experience that’s as uncompromising as it is exhilarating.

The Bobber Dark Horse’s stripped-down aesthetic and chunky tires evoke the rebellious spirit of post-war era V-twins, while the solo bobber seat and muscular front end hint at a riding experience that’s as unapologetic as it is thrilling.

But don’t let its rugged exterior fool you – the Bobber Dark Horse is also a testament to Indian Motorcycle’s commitment to modern performance and technology. With a 15.1-litre fuel tank and dual outboard preload-adjustable rear shocks, this bike is built for the open road, where the horizon is your limit and the thrill of the ride is all that matters.
