I own the Chief Vintage from the "Why we won't sell Indians" video. Almost 4 years and over 24,000 miles later, the bike has been flawless. I've ridden it from Massachusetts to West Virginia and every state in between with no issues whatsoever .
@@ronnierushing700 Dont' mind at all. It was a gear position switch. The digital readout became slow when changing gears up or down. Also, the factory was concerned that it would show neutral when it was actually in gear. The dealer fixed mine under warranty before the factory knew it was a more widespread problem. I subsequently received the improved switch with the recall.
@wooley: true. But if the dealer is a douche, why get the bike? I mean, some where a long the way, you'll probably need to take the bike to the dealer. I don't need that kind of stress. I ride a bike to de-stress.
@@deepsleep7822 My HD dealer was a douche like Most all of them! They just want to sell you the HD trash and then treat you like crap when something goes wrong under warranty!
Harley equivalent !?!? Nah they don't have one, the Indian handles way better, brakes better, feels more comfortable to be on and thanks to excellent suspension tuning on the front and that Fox shock on the back it absolutely eats the Harley on the rougher roads and bumpy corners. Now I'm talking apples for apples, one touring bike against another, all of Harley's touring bikes have at best two and a half inches of rear suspension travel whilst the Indian has four and a half. As a long time Road King owner who has traversed Australia more than once, I can tell you that one ride on the Indian blew my mind. If you ride both and still buy a Harley, it's because you're buying into a brand, that's it, nothing more, there is no way your Harley is better.
I had a 16 Chief Darkhorse and loved it. I sold it in18 to get a chieftain darkhorse. The 19s started looking like harleys. Love my chieftain. The adjustable electric windshield is one reason I would never consider a Harley. Very useful.
I think the brown bags, seat and whips, would pop on there. Make it look like a spotted horse. 🤔🤔🤔 black bikes are everywhere. The Indian brown seats, really helps them separate themselves from the others.
I've got an 18 dark horse. You are exactly right, I love the stripped down look. Not knocking Harley a bit but indian has it together on this bike. When I ride I dont want bags or extra frills in my way. Thanks for the vid and glad to see u have a better experience with an indian.....
Been debating on whether to ger a Harley or Indian Dark horse. From the reviews ive seen. The Indian has way better handling and riding comfort. As well as virtually no mechanical issues. Think I'll get the Dark Horse.
@@Iceman77772 I can honestly say that I don't have much time for a nice bike but anytime I regret buying it, all I have to do is ride it. No remorse here.
@@Iceman77772 I decided to get a Dark Horse this spring. I found one online in Detroit for the right price, so called the dealership and told them to hold it for me. Bought a one-way plane ticket from Utah, signed for it and rode it almost 2k miles homes. By the time I got home I'd already gotten more comments and people talking to me about it then the whole 2 years I rode a Harley lol. Harley's are good, but from where I'm sitting, the Dark Horse is better :)
I'm new to your channel and I already love it. Been riding for about 8 years now and I'm ready to switch to a touring bike. I was between the vintage and the road king. I like the way you explain your knowledge. OAN: I do love how you always read a verse before riding.
A few months ago I test rode a Chief Dark Horse. It does ride pretty smooth, and suspension is very nice and soft. The con for me: I'm 180cm long (5.9) and the shifter is too much forward. I'm used to heel-toe shifting on my Intruder, and that would be a great feature on this motorcycle. The current shifter would have felt much nicer if I would have longer legs or even bigger feet. My advice: If you like the looks and have the money, go for it!
I plan on getting a chief dark horse as my first bike. (Yes I'm batshit crazy and I'm proud of it) but when I first went into the dealer, I was looking for a scout. Guy actually recommended I try the chief out and I'm GLAD I did, the scout felt small to me when I was sitting on it but the chief felt like a damn glove man. And you're right, it really doesn't feel all that heavy when you're riding it.
The Chief Dark Horse is my dream bike. The look of them, especially with beach bars and a spring seat, makes me want to throw down the money even though I know it's a bad idea with my limited experience. I love matte black, and I love Americana. This bike is absolutely both of those. I'm currently looking at a used Vulcan 900 so I can get used to bikes that are bigger and heavier than the little Rebel 450 that I've been riding. Once I have the experience though, a Chief Dark Horse will be mine.
I own a Vulcan so I maybe bias, however you can get all the bike you will ever need for less than $5,000 if you buy Nov-Feb a near meant condition 6+ year old Vulcan can be purchased as low as $3,500. The bikes are very low maintenance and can easily run 100,000 miles
Hey same here! I would prefer the Springfield Dark Horse but still, the Dark Horse line up are my dream bikes, they look so badass and I have heard nothing but great things about performance
Google up "old inc fiberglass fenders". I have a drifter fender on my vulcan 900 and it's a great platform till you're ready to move up. I can show you pics of what my 900 looks like with their fender, it's perfect
@@iamIncrediblehulk Even when I was on my V Star 1300 my wife's Shadow 750 felt like a scooter in comparison. Maybe if you started on a Shadow and never rode a bigger bike that would be all you want... maybe ;-P But after riding an Indian a Honda Shadow isn't even close; as long as you're willing to pay the difference of course. Notice I said WILLING to pay not can AFFORD to pay. I hate it when people think that just because someone is riding a smaller cheaper bike it's becasue of a financial limitation instead of what they person wants to ride. BTW I'm not an Indian, or any bike (owned Kawi, Honda, Yamaha, Victory, and Indian), snob. But they're not even close to the same league of bike.
@@jasonrobertson5526 Victory and Indian are both owned by Polaris making it the same company. Polaris ended their Victory line because Indian has an immortal name and there was no point in having two big v-twin company names.
I rode that bike in Daytona on a test run. It's comparable to the Heritage Harley but sits lower. My cousin Eddie ended up blowing up the engine after he test rode it.
My '48 Chief has rated 40 hp, weighs 593 pounds, max 85mph, foot clutch hand shift, drum brakes, lotsa tappet noise and heavy handling, you gotta love the oldies.
only complaint i have of your vids is you use the same type of title. Don't buy, ect. it's kind of click bait to me , especially when as far as i know you have not ridden the bike that long. a first impressions i can see, but one short trip won't tell you everything. just my opinion. i do like that you tryout alot of bikes .
The Chief Dark Horse certainly did come with bags & windscreen if so ordered. I had one, a 2016 & it was a great machine. It shared duty with my CVO Ultra which was, at the time, pushing 60k on the clock.
Thank you for a good review. I own a 2020 Darkhorse Chief. I love it!!! Funny thing is that I was looking for a vmax because of your review. Nobody has one in Nashville. I drove the Darkhorse Chief one time, and purchased it a few days later.
My O to 60 guestimate ...5.3 second. On a side note, I love the way that bike sounds; full, low octave purr is so cool. Yes, I get the loud thumper Harley deal, but this bike sounds like it has so much power, yet it’s not rattling you’re melon.
The two buttons on the center console are... on the left heated handle grips (if installed) and the right is your lock/unlock button for the hard saddle bags if you buy them.
I love my 2016 darkhorse. I have put 20k miles on it in the past 3 years and it has been absolutely amazing. There are a few issues with it. But it doesn't bother me
@@pythonman8103 the speed sensor on the front wheel isn't protected very well and has had to be replaced twice due to small rocks hitting it when riding down gravel roads, the gear indicator switch gets clogged up with belt shavings and will show the wrong gear and can actually start in gear if your not careful, happened to me once lol (Indian has a recall with new designed switch I just have not done it yet), and the ABS will sometimes work and sometimes not work and has been like that for a long time.The heated grips are not very warm at all and are basically useless( this is probably my fault because I didn't install correctly or I might need to update the pcm). Stock oem battery SUCKS and is a hit or miss with how long it will last, I replaced it with a higher CCA battery and is a major difference in starting as well. Minor issues in my opinion but they are technically problems. I have about 30k miles on it now, still running strong.
1 Corinthians 15 "Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures"
I bought a new 2019 Indian Springfield this year... holy cow brother you wouldn't BELIEVE how many comments I get. I've never had dudes roll their windows down at red lights and ask me Where I got it/How much it costs/etc... Harleys are cool, but Indians turn heads more, and to be honest come with just as much muscle and even more tech straight from the factory.
Glad to see an Indian video of yours again - not owning one yet - but I’m really thinking switching into that camp. They look better, they are better and definitely more state of the art on the paper. Need to get my hands on one and test ride it
Never owned a HD when test riding them was never impressed compared to my Honda VTX 1800, with that said though cannot wait till I get my 20 Chieftain with a few upgrades 😎
I have a chief vintage with a decatted, performance programmed, cammed stage 2. Fun, big and fast. I can make it perform, but dig the unique look and color. It is different and not an HD.
If you have 8 bikes and if one of thems not an Indian you’re doing something wrong 😂 love that line. I work for Harley, and I ride an Indian. I love Harley’s cus they’re what got me into motorcycles, but I haven’t been on one that feels good. Every Indian I’ve been on felt smooth and much more controllable than any Harley. Not knocking em, but Indian specs their bikes a lot better for new riders and experienced. They price theirs more for a younger audience too. You get a much better bike for the price. In any class. And quality control and reliability.. omg. Why do you think Harley offers their warranties on used bikes? You buy one and if you haven’t visited the shop in less than 5k you’re lucky. I still love Harley’s, but being young and broke, and still a somewhat new rider (3 years) Indians my go to brand.

Hey Sean. You had spoken about a verse that I cannot remember the number. Was from Matthew about if u do all your work for god he will always give you enough time and strength you need to get through. . I cant remember exactly. Could u help me remember the numbers. I had started working 2 jobs 2 months ago and have been feeling super overwhelmed and after u talked about that I heard it again from a coworker. And i think it's something i am suppose to pay attention to. Just wanna remember the verse better. Thank alot you guys. Keep em coming.
@2:31, those are usually the buttons to lock/unlock the saddlebags! Just an FYI. Since this came with none... well... yeah lol. Only needs one guage because they don't constantly have issues like _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
Thanks for ruining this for me 😂. Now I can’t look at my Indian without hearing “THUUUNNNDERSTROOOOKE”. As always, great vid. Love the Words of Wisdom. 2017 Indian Springfield 111 Thunderstroke
For those of us who don't know what turquoise is, I'd bet you've probably never been to Eastern Oklahoma (Indian Territory). Turquoise is a rock that many of us Indians use as jewelry. Not everyone sees the beauty in it. Turquoise was put on that Indian for a reason. Either the previous owner or the artist knew some Indian History.
Went and looked at new Indians yesterday. Love the new bikes and they feel nice but $28K is a bit steep for a bike. The Challenger looked like the Road Glide and fixed fairings throw me off big time. Chieftain was Street Glide comparable and I did see a Dark Horse on the floor.
Hey man, love your videos. Why do you not have a review of the KLX 250? I love this bike and I am about to buy one (2021 model). Would love to hear your thought on it.
Talking bout the handle bar size I’ve been having a hard time finding a cell phone mount that fits, will the phone mount u always recommend fit this bike? Also while you have in your stable I wanna pout a sissy bar or stick on back to strap a bag when I go to work instead of carrying on my back. Can you recommend one for the dark horse. 🤗

20K miles in three years on my '17 Chieftain LTD. One minor factory recall, no other issues. Love it.
What was the recall if you don’t mind me asking
2018 limited. Best all around bike I've ever owned, and that includes the 2014 ultra I traded in on it.

@gtsteele6219 same . Had it taken care of a couple years ago. It's starting to do it again.
The two "buttons" on the tank are for power locking saddle bags/trunk (on the right) and heated grips (on the left).

He actually built two yachts; this one and a 107 meter, now named Andromeda. . . He reportedly sold Andromeda to billionaire Yuri Milner. . . In September 2019 & several messages that Milner also bought the 116 meter Ulysses (!). . . Hart in the meantime has bought the CRN yacht Cloud 9 and named her Odyssey. . . And we were also told that Hart bought the CRN yacht J’Ade. (And she is now on transport to New Zealand). .for the Americas Cup races in 2021..!!!
Obvious Correction: "If Batman rode a motorcycle" it would be a blacked out Honda Valkyrie Rune. Hands down. No question.
Just sold a rune. It’s a great bike. Very attention grabbing. I’m happier with my Indians.
@@cwroberts79 I'd love to pick up a Rune to sit next to my Valkyrie. But alas, the paycheck says "no". LOL.
Batman rides custom.
@@cwroberts79 I think
If batman rode a motorcycle, it’s gonna be an all black MV agusta.
4.59 "Victory is on point" Yeah Victory certainly were.... This is an Indian though.
My triumph thunderbird storm 1700 does 0 to 60 in 3.3 seconds now. Partly because I got better at take off and partly because some mods
I’m not a cruiser guy but this is a beautiful bike
If you could have only one, FTR 1200 or the Chief? Another nice vid
Damn, I can see the rust bubbles on the skirted fender from here..
My God I love this bike the way it looks all it needs is a stereo man its beautiful I was all about Harley till I seen this video
When you go victory indian you never go Harley Davidson...
I think the two unidentified buttons on the tank are to set the clock or trip counter on the odometer.
Hey Sean. You had spoken about a verse that I cannot remember the number. Was from Matthew about if u do all your work for god he will always give you enough time and strength you need to get through. . I cant remember exactly. Could u help me remember the numbers. I had started working 2 jobs 2 months ago and have been feeling super overwhelmed and after u talked about that I heard it again from a coworker. And i think it's something i am suppose to pay attention to. Just wanna remember the verse better. Thank alot you guys. Keep em coming.
@2:31, those are usually the buttons to lock/unlock the saddlebags! Just an FYI. Since this came with none... well... yeah lol.
Only needs one guage because they don't constantly have issues like _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
Would love to see an Indian Scout Bobber review
Thanks for ruining this for me 😂. Now I can’t look at my Indian without hearing “THUUUNNNDERSTROOOOKE”. As always, great vid. Love the Words of Wisdom.
2017 Indian Springfield 111 Thunderstroke
For those of us who don't know what turquoise is, I'd bet you've probably never been to Eastern Oklahoma (Indian Territory). Turquoise is a rock that many of us Indians use as jewelry. Not everyone sees the beauty in it. Turquoise was put on that Indian for a reason. Either the previous owner or the artist knew some Indian History.
Love the tip of the hat to our fallen comrade.
This is the Indian Vintage Dark Horse, regular 2020+ chief dark horse fenders doesn't look like that.
I ride a honda VFR800 and was running about 110mph when my friend ran me down and pulled up next to me on his indian chief no problem
looks like a yamaha road liner with no saddle bag
I think the words of wisdom meant know when to fight your battles and when to let it go its not worth it today.
Funny you should mention batman - there's a scene in mask of phantasm made in 93 with a bike that looks like the dark horse.
I await the day Sean reviews an actual horse.
Have you ever seen Native American Jewelry Sean like a Squash Blossom necklace the blue stones that's turquoise. Absolutely beautiful stuff!
Went and looked at new Indians yesterday. Love the new bikes and they feel nice but $28K is a bit steep for a bike.
The Challenger looked like the Road Glide and fixed fairings throw me off big time.
Chieftain was Street Glide comparable and I did see a Dark Horse on the floor.
Hey man, love your videos. Why do you not have a review of the KLX 250?
I love this bike and I am about to buy one (2021 model).
Would love to hear your thought on it.
@Srkcycles When are you gonna try the Challenger?
Love the power of my indian Roadmaster ts 111
Hi Sean nice bike great vid thank you 🖐🇦🇺✌
For Xmas can we please have Sean’s outtakes from the cutting room floor? All the things that got cut from the test drive videos?
Talking bout the handle bar size I’ve been having a hard time finding a cell phone mount that fits, will the phone mount u always recommend fit this bike? Also while you have in your stable I wanna pout a sissy bar or stick on back to strap a bag when I go to work instead of carrying on my back. Can you recommend one for the dark horse. 🤗
Turquoise is a stone, you'll never guess what color it is ... lol
🤣🤣🤣
Your Victory faux pas bled through. You know you were dreaming of a Vision!
My cross country tour has changed the standard of motorcycles. I’ve ridden the Indians, the harleys, the vaquero. All feel cramped by comparison
I didn’t know turquoise was an element 😆
even better, I thought it was a color LMAO
yea can't believe that
Sean I have the 2016 dark horse, best bike I ever had, replaced my 2005 Electra glide with this bike, so much better
Is it more reliable as well?
Ceez n Sandz Maese Ceez it’s definitely all my Harley was n more, very reliable
It’s both. Color and a Gemstone.
