Parts List: 2023 Indian Motorcycle Sport Chief

Repositioned the rear shock mounts and relocated swingarm mounts to reduce the rear section’s width.
Narrowed and lifted the fuel tank, outfitted it and the side covers with 3-inch louvers, and custom-made a fender inspired by old-school Indian style to fit the narrower wheels.
Modified seven-spoke Morris Mag replica wheels to fit Indian Motorcycle axles, brakes, rotors, sensors, and bearings. Lyndall Brakes made matching chrome rotors and a sprocket to complement the wheels.
Narrowed down the front fork system to accommodate an 11.5-inch rotor instead of a 13-inch rotor, due to the narrow wheel used.
Designed custom 8-inch risers to imitate the Indian Motorcycle display gauge engagement system and created handlebars that were narrow with lots of pull back to suit the bike’s needs.
Fabricated a one-off stainless steel exhaust pipe with a RedThunder cone from the bike’s Italian partners.
Crafted a fully custom cobra-style gunslinger seat with a stainless steel seat pan and upholstered it.
Applied a custom paint job with a mix of root beer colors that was darkened to fit the Indian Motorcycle style.
Paint and bodywork were done by Walt at WW Cycles, while Pacman added custom pinstripes.
All work conducted in-house except for the bodywork and chrome/powder coating, which were done by Garett GAS Powder in Simi Valley
