💭 After putting a few more pieces together, it’s time to try and start Indian Chief. This won’t be a walk in the park, but definitely a learning moment.

Nice job sir. No great job. You need to start up your own Indian repair shop. Let’s go!!!
Dude you grinding wayyyy harder than that starter ever will! Ain’t the small victories just awesome ✊😜
Congrats on your career of being a Top Flight Mechanic. Glad to see you accomplished what you set out to do and nailed it.

Decades in the saddle and many frame up builds later.....That look on your face brought me back to some good times. Good on you dude, it's always worth the smiles. I'm a die hard Victory rider. But the 116 chief definitely caught my eye when she came out. Earned yourself another subscriber 👍

What a satisfying feeling when they start & run! The efforts of your labor pays off!
Thats a great feeling isnt it? I still have my first frame up custom and still smile when I think of its first fire up, get your self a digital temp gauge and check the heat difference between the front and rear jug

That’s worth looking into! After a few days, the headers don’t get as red anymore so they could’ve needed a burn in period.

The first start after a rebuild is always exciting. Funny that I found your videos just recently. Last year I bought a totalled Indian Chief and rebuilt her and then rode it her out to Sturgis from PA.

That’s a hell of a win. Great job dude! I can’t wait to see how this one looks all put together.
Sounds sweet, the glowing exhaust is normal.
Well done Brandon, I nearly have mine back together so hopefully it starts ok too. Your tip about the selector drum was very helpful and I also found another video on the clutch which showed the order of the different plates. Yours is running like a dream. I’ve had the red exhaust on mine too. Seems normal.

Great Job, it may be running Rich. That would cause the Exhaust to turn Red from the Heat. You’ll definitely have a nice Ride.👍👍
CONGRATS !! Gonna be a really fun bike.
I WANT ONE! I just spent a lovely evening watching you rebuild this motor. I have ridden Harleys over here in Australia, but you never get a fully American machine. The solution to that was Victory Motorcycles, yet they are gone - and very sadly too - because they WERE 100% made in the U.S. Now I look at Indian, I am pretty sure that they are built in the U.S. and crated over. But I would love to rework a wrecker, tho I would probs take the engine down to base metal / lacquer. Thank you Brandon. I'm subbing you now. Cheers mate. Ride free.✌💪
Great Work Brandon, I knew you would conquer it young bro.
