It is also powered by the new Thunder Stroke® 111 engine.
2015 Indian Chieftain (starting MSRP: $22,999)
The first Indian Motorcycle of its kind, the all new Indian® Chieftain® maintains the legendary Indian Chief styling, while taking this progressive machine to new heights with advanced features and premium comfort. Unlike any Indian Motorcycle ever made, the Chieftain features a fairing with integrated driving lights, and its power windshield is an industry-first for a fork-mounted fairing.

2016 Indian Chief Dark Horse (starting MSRP $16,999)

Painted entirely in Thunder Black Smoke Paint, these bold and iconic cruisers share the same frame and suspension, same great ride and handling, same rider ergonomics – and, like all Indian Chief cruisers, both have the powerful Thunder Stroke 111 engine. Featuring classic Indian bodywork, the Dark Horse features standard Indian Motorcycle features like ABS braking, cruise control, and keyless ignition, not to mention outstanding performance. The Dark Horse weighs slightly less than the Chief Classic, meaning the Dark Horse has the best power-to-weight ratio of any model with the Thunder Stroke 111.
