Finally a reviewer who actually talks about the handlebar & seat. I have a '23 Chief Bobber that I put the Sport chief fairing on and now want to put the Super's seat and handlebars on for more comfort.

Thank you! I'm about 9500 miles on the stock seat. I find it comfortable, but considering a gel insert. I'm not quite ready to go Saddlemen just yet. I ran just over 330 miles today and had no complaints about the seat or my rear end getting tired.

Great review! I agree it's a very smooth ride with tons of power and as you said "power to spare". Better be careful in sport mode. It can come out from under you real fast. I ordered my Super Chief Limited Black Metalic last week. Can't hardly wait.

Thank you, Gary! Yes! Sport Mode I am still trying to get nailed down. It is super twitchy, so I don't use it for stop and go travel. I'll use it in areas where I have runs in-between corners just to get me all giddy😂 I'll use Standard or tour for highway travel. I am waiting to place my order for the Stage 1 intake and exhaust. I know there is a long wait. The wait is worth it for this bike. Congratulations!

Great video!! I put down a deposit on a Chief Dark Horse three weeks ago, waiting patiently for it to arrive. Your video made me a little less patient - I want it now!

Congratulations! Enjoy it! I raised the bars about an inch. I felt stock was too low. I'm 5'10" I did lift up the rear a tad bit too. If you notice it bottom out when you hit a bump, that will be your fix. Easy to do with the spanners. I used a caliper to make sure my measurements were equal on both sides. You'll need to remove the saddle bags. Pretty easy. I'm glad I did because I found some really loose bolts. Blue loctite to the rescue!

Late to the party but congratulations! That bug did bite me hard and I was sooo close to buying one. If I didn't already have my scout and put so much money and work into it, I would have traded it in for the chief dark horse for sure. I'm too sentimental of my scout to let it go, so I opted for a touring bike so I'll have some more options in what and how I can ride vs two bikes that are similar in terms of function and style.

I'm literally in the same boat as you were - looking for a cruiser. Had my heart set on a 2021 HD Sport Glide as I love the looks. Test rode it and it handled surprisingly well but don't think that rear brake works lol. Did you ride Sport Glide at all? How's the HD 107 compare to the Indian 111?

@JunkyardDadski

3 жыл бұрын

My buddy has a 2016 Sport Glide. It rides nice but isn't my style. The 107 to the 111 - you can tell a difference as the 111 just feels a bit more "torque-ee". The gearing also seems to play a factor. The HD had gears you knew what to expect and seemed you rarely would use 3rd and 6th. The Indian, 1st gear gets really short usage because you can hit the limiter easily. I'm learning that it all takes finesse. Plus side on the Indian is the throttle / Ride modes. All useful. The HD was the flick of the wrist.

Oh yeah, you're right, my bad. Still a comfy bagger. Yep, the slim is the HD comparison. I rented it for the weekend. For me, it was uncomfortable. The footboards just seemed off set and the seat was uncomfortable and hard. Suspension was a bit rough and my rear and back was sore after the weekend. Maybe it is made for a smaller person and I'm not saying it's a bad bike, but the slim was not for me.

I have heard the heritage had a much better seat. Why I didn't choose a heritage? The styling wasn't exactly me. I'd do additional changes, making the cost of a heritage outweigh the cost of the super chief. When I outgrow the Chief, it's going to be fun comparing again!👍

I have been using the rear cylinder deactivation feature. So far, works pretty well. I was used to riding my old Ironhead Sportster, and learned how to mitigate the heat. With the Indian, I tend to use my legs like air scoops to direct the wind inward towards the seat, helping a bunch with keeping me cool.

If it has plenty of storage why did you skip it when you were opening them up?

For me, I have old leather bags on my 79 Sportster, which was my only comparison. It's all perspective for me as I never required much space as I carried tools, spare gas, zip ties and Slime for a flat tire. This had more space than that, so it was plenty for me.

Man its my dream bike and saving money for it, it costs almost 25 lakhs in INDIA including registration and all. I don't know when I will be able to buy it but I will one day. At present most of my income is going in to house loan repayment. Need to close it first , then will save all money for this bike.
