In 1921 Musk first introduced the Chief Model in the Indian, and was the one who largely established the status of this manufacturer and its leadership of the American market and the institutionalization of its iconic status even after it disappeared as a real manufacturer after World War II.

It was therefore very natural to see this model also serve as a significant part of the Indian model avenue also in its new incarnation, again as a manufacturer of stylish American motorcycles, but under the wings of the Polaris.

And as such, its target audience is the kind that seeks the tool different from the others, and although these three models are completely serial they still take this story of the Chief model to a slightly different place.

And of course as with any custom motorcycle, the tool on the floor of the showroom is the base and the sky is the limit.

The three latest additions to this model that appear here can be divided into two general families - the two models belonging to the "Dark Horse" genre of the manufacturer and the third is the more equipped Limited.

The base for the three models is the same: in the chief's tubular chassis, a V8 twin engine with a volume of 1,890 cc and a power of 88 hp and 16.5 kg. Armature for all three keyless propulsion, cruise control, three riding modes, digital dashboard which is actually a rounded touch screen with a diameter of 101 mm that is also controlled by commanders on the handlebars, with the option to view calls, messages, music and navigation with mobile phone coupling.

But from this base the three versions split in different directions: the

Dark destroys with a wide handlebars, but and a sitting position that takes the legs slightly back than usual in the Chief models.

The blackened look for the assemblies, as its name implies, a 19-inch cast front rim, a minimalist flashlight, and contrary to what you might think, is available in two other colors besides black (gray and aluminum).

Price: NIS 150,000.

The second Dark Horse is the "Buber": here the handlebars are higher, the 16-inch diameter spike rims, and the legs in a more forward position.

In this version the shock absorbers are given in "sleeves" for a more classic look.

In this version it is also available in smoky titanium and smoky matte green colors.

Price: 160,000 shekels.

The third version is the Chief Limited, here the direction is longer rides and an even more classic look with the addition of a freak front mirror, leather bags in the back, a "touring" seat for the rider and another complex seat with a backrest.

The price of this version of the chief is NIS 170,000.

Along with the new models, importer DLB Motorsport is also inaugurating the new Indian showroom.

Which moved from its previous corner location with the opening of the Royal Anfield showroom and is now located further down the street in the sequence of the importer's showrooms with Royal Anfield, KTM and Indian at Chocken 14 to 18.
