Test Riding A 2023 Indian Sport Chief With A Stage 2 Upgrade
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.ย. 2024
- M&M Performance let me take out their Indian Sport Chief with a stage 2 upgrade tuned by LLOYD’Z Motor Workz!
And at 139 foot pounds of torque and close to 110 horsepower, this little thing just rips! 🤩
I’m probably having too much fun on this little guy hahaha. But you put that bad boy in sport mode and you better be ready to hold on!
LLOYD’Z specializes in Indian performance products, and M&M Performance in Kelowna is the only place in Canada that offers LLOYD’Z tuning!
If you are in the area, I strongly recommend you stop and and give these guys a visit! They have a packed showroom and they are extremely friendly and genuine, and I think that combination goes a long way in the motorcycle industry!
Go give 'em a visit, and tell them Red Rider sent ya 😉
And I’ll catch y’all on the flip! ✌️ 😘
And, anyone who want's to send me pictures of their bikes, you can email me at:
redrider.canada.bc@gmail.com
PLEASE SEND LARGE CLEAR PHOTOS!
1080p x 1080p is the MINIMUM we can work with, so please do your best at making sure your photos are large and not blurry 🙂 And send more than one if you can as well!
Only motorcycle related emails please - sorry, but I just don't have the time to engage in personal conversations.
Thank you for your understanding.
If you DON'T want your bike highlighted in a future video showing viewers bikes then make sure to mention it in your email. Other than that, expect to see your bike in one of my videos!

Funny how the speedometer went fuzzy in sport mode. Obviously a problem they will need to fix! Lol. Nice bike. Thanks for taking us for a ride with you!
You bet! Haha
I love the Indian Chief's. They kept the appearance of what a classic should look like.
Totally!
I think they hit a home run with that model.
Cool eh!
What did Carroll Shelby used to say? "You cannot have too much power, you can only have too little traction." Thank you for an intriguing video, Angel!
Lol sounds about right
Wow! That Indian chief is a real beauty
Totally!
Those Performance pipes really sound amazing. I have a set of slip-ons on my Scout and I love the sound and they certainly let the motor breathe so much better. All I have is a stage one on it, and it does not need anything else. If I ever did ride one of the Sport Chief Sport with a Stage Two, I'd probably just have to but the darn thing lol! Indian makes a fast hot rod straight out of the box. Loved this video and I'm so glad you got to ride that souped up Chief! Ride and stay safe up in your beautiful B.C.!
I had so much fin on that thing! Just wish I would have gone faster 😅
I've done 19000 km on a 22 super chief limited with stage 1 kit, for nz roads it's AWESOME! Great video, keep doing it.
That is awesome!
So your rode the Scout and now the Chief! I have a Chief, stage 2 with Dean Speed Exhaust (tuned locally), no fairing 🤣and it rips. The freedom performance exhaust was 1 year back order. The sport chief you rode has Brembo brakes, inverted front tubes, and adjustable Fox shocks, which mine does not have so ride and handling is more aggressive with the sport version. It's interesting that they allow you to do videos on their bikes and Harley won't. The smile on your face when you went full throttle was priceless 😎
Lol that wasn't even full throttle! I shouldn't have held back 😒
That thing looks and sounds SO effing cool!
I know eh!
Big bang for your buck, hope you enjoyed the ride👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I very much did!
This was a cool vlog. I have been looking at the India Sport Chief. I actually like it. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it!
I really like the look of the Thunderstroke engine, it has the look of the old style engine , while integrating updated overhead valves, but still looking like the old classic engine...I like the looks of the Thunderstroke engine much better than the Scout engine personally !! You sound like a spokesperson for Indian MC Angel 😆💖😘✌ I enjoyed the ride thanks for taking me along ❤
I agree that they did a good job of keeping that old school look!
@@RedRiderCanadaBC much better than when they were using S&S engines...Not that S&S is a bad engine, but I just think companies should make their own engines !!
Nice review. Great
looking bike. I’d love to ride one. The TS’s always make beautiful motor music. Better than the M8
107hp
139tq
That’s impressive torque. More than my cammed 114ci M8 softail. More per cubic inch also. Not the HP but it’s a 2V head. Love to see one done with ported big valve heads.
They are a nice ride for sure!
Sport Chief with the better suspension would be the best pick of the Chief lineup in my opinion.
Picked up my first Indian last may …. FTRs1200. Really solid made bikes. My local Indian dealer has recently got a red Sport Chief in stock and it looks awesome. Cool video 🤙🏁
🤩
Well said Red. These are a VERY capable and fun bike to ride, and that comes from over 53 years of riding ALL sorts of bikes, and many many Harleys. Check it out; you will LOVE it I reckon.
The seem like they are pretty good bikes! But I still prefer old school for ease of maintenance
Cool Bike. I once did a demo ride at the Harley Davidson museum. Took a new Heritage Classic with the 114 out and during my return loop, I was already trying to come up with a plan to swing the payments while avoiding divorce court. I will stick with my Road King which is paid for and avoid tormenting myself in the future.
Hahah good plan
It was so funny seeing you get yanked back in that saddle when you hit-it in sport mode.
Those pipes on that bike sound amazing.
It was funny seeing guys in traffic looking at you like, "man that's a lot of bike she's riding"...ha ha
If I'm in the market for an Indian, I'm going to call them.
Thanks, Red. This video was way cool.
Eric in Kissimmee.
Thanks for watching!! Tons of fun 🤩
Nice job. The only thing I would disagree on is using the tour mode in town. I own a Sport Chief and I have tried all three modes in town, on the highway, and the interstate. The tour mode for me in town doesn't have anywhere near enough immediate throttle response. In tour mode a quarter twist of the throttle results in very little engine response. Standard and sport modes are both fine and the response is great. The only time I've found the tour mode useful is at highway speeds of 70 mph or more with the cruise on when I need to roll onto the throttle to speed up slowly. Other than that, for me the tour mode is unusable. I really love the bike and the tour mode may be the only thing that I dislike about it.
Good info to know. I will definitely keep that in mind if I ride one again!
Looks great from behind the bars. That combo digital tach speedo😮could use a flare wind vest over that stock slab.
Great Video! What a bike! I've had my eye on Indians for quite sometime. I love the FTRs. I really like how this Cheif is set up. Sounds absolutely Awesome!
Thanks for watching! And I would highly recommend a test ride 😁
LOL! Smilin' thru the whole video says it all right there! The bike sounds great!
You got that right!
Gr8 review! Thank you for going over most imposetant specs & making it fun! 🔥⚡️🤘
You bet ya! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
That is one sweet bike. My dad had a Harley Street Bob with the 107 and it felt like it was trying to push you off. I can only imagine what it feels like on this Indian. This one has a lot milder aesthetics than the big Indians, which I prefer. That is what really turned me off about the Indians was the swoopy fenders. Not my style, but this one I like! Thanks for sharing Red!
It was so much fun!!
Cool bikes I hear
Tons of fun!
Awesome test ride and commentary, Red. Many thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Always love your videos red ,and am always looking forward to the next one.
Thank you 😊😊
That Indian looks good on you Red, would be a asset to your garage!
😆 🤔
hello angel
wow, I admire you for having the courage to ride such a big bike. You can see your enthusiasm for the bike, that's nice. Keep it up and enjoy it. take care of yourself .
Thank you 🙂 I had fun!
Pretty cool bike! I'll bet that was fun to test ride.
Totally fun!
The smile on your face in sport mode says it all
🤩🤩🤩🤩
dang she sounds good!easy on the eyes and the bike is cool too
😆
👍🐾... Reminds me of my stripped down '71 CH with a 19 tooth sprocket, it ripped 😬
Fun stuff!
Yahoo. Love it Red. Your correct there is always room for another bike. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
😅
This is a great test drive, thanks a lot. If I were a blogger, I would also blurr my speedometer, that's just for a different reason. My speed in the city is 40km/h, and on the highway it is 80km/h, and if there were no cars, I think I would drive even slower 😂
You have to learn that the ponies have to stretch out their legs and speed limits on a motorcycle is more just a suggestion enjoy the ride 😂
Sports mode ridden with operator throttle *self-control* / respect. Nice‼️
All that was missing was some more open roads
Amazing scooter Ms. Red and it sounds great BUY IT !
I know hey!!
Awesome video, Indian bikes are awesome.
Yes they are!
That smile on your face when you hit sport mode said it all...😂
Lol wasn't even going that fast yet hahha. But it got there quick either way!
What a bike! With that torque, you could probably ride just in high gear.
Just about haha
Great video.... I'm digging indians dyna.....lol great stuff!!!
Thanks!
Great review, the sport chief is a fantastic bike and a lot lighter than my chieftain!
Right on!
Great video, Angel! Amazing bike for sure... if it was mine, speeding tickets! 😅
Lol 😅
You are having too much fun.😎👍
Lol I thought maybe not enough 😆
Indian Bikes have the best looking style for a cruiser in my opinion. Lol 👍
They are nice looking bikes for sure
by by license on that bike....... ya audio is defatly playing up..... cheers Red.... great run..
Think I need a better wind sock for my mic
@@RedRiderCanadaBC think its your conection it sort a did the same on ya last live draw they do rattle lose on Harleys..
maybe a dab of the elecrical spray on ya transmitter lead ends???
hope its easy fix Cheers Red
I need to test one soon, afraid I'd have to get one.
Do it!
I was looking at the scout but it's only 1300cc ISH and after owning sports bikes and a 1700cc 2014 fatbob the drop would be crap for me, the chief is alot more expensive so I'm looking at a Harley again, still not sure on fat bob or street bob, the biker smile well cool
This one was a really fun little bike. 😃
Get you and your dad to work on that rear fender. That thing has enough metal in it to build 8 rear fenders. Needs a little customization. Great video you take care and stay safe.
I was thinking the same thing. That fender definitely would need to go.
Hi 👋, Red Rider, only if I had some money, but I am a loyal Harley rider, it looks very very nice, and sounds great to, 😂, there is obviously something wrong with the speedometer. All the figures dropped down to the bottom of the dial as you accelerated ha ha, 😅😂. I think it’s called Fuzzing Out, 😂. Did I see a speed camera flash at you when you was going down the road?, Oh dear., ha ha , 😂.
How do you spell usual a great tutorial on the Indian chief? , Catch you on the flipside., 😂 Phil from the moulin.
Hahah I think I should have been going faster!
@@RedRiderCanadaBC it is better to be safe, and get used to the bike first, and how responds, I would normally ride around 50 to 60 miles an hour, as I would like to enjoy the ride, but have been known to go into three digits, seven of us shooting down towards Spain, very intense,
Ride Safe, Phil from the moulin
Steady girl😅. Gorgeous bike! Impressive acceleration.
So much fun!
Great review!
Thanks!
The styling looks more Scout than Chief to me, i would have thought the modes would have just changed suspension settings and not engine maps, ripping your arms out of their sockets sounds like fun
Hahah it was lots of fun
Ha ha ha... She's Hooked .... lol. Yes Angel, that 300 # diff is going to be a huge deal maker for those wanting a ride in the 550 to 600 pound range with the low seat height and Mid-Controls, and .... Whoop-ass Power.
Stay Safe.
It was ridiculous amounts of fun hahah
THANKS
Welcome!
Indian looks and Victory reliability.
👍
Thats the kind of wind screen needed on johnny. One you can see over.
Yea I think so
What? ...fuzzed out gauge 😂
🎉
🤫 😆
I luv this bike better than low rider s
🙌
Hahahaha you liked that spot mode sounds good
😎
Sounded great too,nice bike✌️
It was!
Yeah. I’ll take 10 of those
👍 👍
Just tell ‘em. Send me all your money so I can go shut Matt up.
Yo Red, more torque, more ponies, equals more fun. 😎✌️😘❤🇺🇸
You bet ya 😎
Looks so cool BUT, so expensive. There's almost no third party upgrades, exhausts and add ons plus for $22k= (US) you can buy 2 FZ900's.
Yea, I would rather spend that one something cool and old that I can do what I want to. But it's a fun little bike nonetheless!
Not true about only tuning Indians at Lloyd's in Corona CA. Many Indian dealers can remote tune to Lloyd's in their dealership.
It's in Kelowna Canada.
Good job O.U.T. IT FLYS GOTTA BLUR THE SPEEDO
Yep hahah
Good video. Bike sounded nice Indian makes a nice bike
They sure do
Im watching you, but the sound is off for now, as my son sent me his dem music, which I cant share but goes well with you - btw: That's a beautiful machine - said Adam -
😁😁😁
Hi 👋, Angel , NICE,
Hello 👋 Thank you 😁
That exhaust reminds me of the one that was on my 1980 Sturgis HD it does sound good, how does it ride is there a lot of vibration in the engine ?
It was a very smooth ride altogether!
🆒 BIKE Angel!!!
🤩
@@RedRiderCanadaBC 👍U ROCK 🎸Angel !!!!!
Hello✌️c'est sympa votre vidéo et votre région, vous êtes où ?
Moi de France 😉
Canada 🇨🇦
Looks like a cool bike.
It is!
I approve this message…
😎 👍
Nice.. might be my next bike
Go for it!
Kool Motorcycle
It was fun 🤩
@@RedRiderCanadaBC yep I could tell by the excitement in your voice & that wonderful smile.
It obviously boogies along well.
Sign of a true rider: bugs all over the helmet. Man that thing sounds good!
Yep and yep lol
I like watching your show because I LOVE YOUR BIRD,hes a good looking thing..show him more.....
I'll try! He's a rascally little guy.
I like what both Harley and Indian offer in their line-ups. I like the Indian Sport Chiefs' looks until you get to the back fender. Not being petty, just a personal thing. Just looks a little "off" to me. My bikes been paid off for 30+ years. Its only got one ride mode, "SMILE"
I was looking at that fender and thinking the same thing actually
I'm detecting a bit of Wild Side tendencies here. 😂
Well she is red 😂
😅
There seems to be a bit of muck on the camera cant see the speedo. 😁🇬🇸👍
How’d that get there!
Oops... how'd the speedo get fogged up, must have leaky seal, better let the dealer know 😊
😆
Not too keen on Indians, sound good but for me red ♥️🍒
Was fun tho!
Potato is how you describe the sound.
I always wondered why tho 🤔
@@RedRiderCanadaBC po ta to po ta to po ta to. haaa
Шикарна покатуха😊
Yes!! 👏
Someone likes the power?!😂
Not at all 😅 😆
🤘😘🤘
😄
I could use a lesson in blurring ! Not kidding
You can do it in the youtube editor. Should be able to find some videos that show youn how! I do mine in my editing program.
You shouldn't call it "sport mode" when you are riding it, judging from the look on your face you should call it the "smiley mode" 😂
haha it was a ton of fun
Hello.
👋
The wind screen and the screws are very poorly finished, especially on the inside. Or am I the only one who makes an issue of this?
I hadn't noticed
I paid 7k for my yamaha raider that pulls similar power to this 27k bike
Crazy
😄
😎
Beuatiful bike, if Indian instead of Harley had won the government wartime contract in WW2, Hmmmm.....
What if!
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
☺️
Potato potato potato
🥔
👋👋👍❤️🔥😎🤠🇺🇸
👏 👍 🇨🇦
tryin to keep the bugs outta your teeth , but couldnt stop smilin
Pretty much
why don't you keep your hair loose? They will be majestic in the wind!
Because combing it out after would not be magical
@@RedRiderCanadaBC But nothing is better than the feeling of the wind trough your hair
Looks roudy😂
🤩
Get a bigger garage first.😁
Right lol
