How Sport Chief Creates Value For Any Rider - A Full Experience

- 💭 Sport Chief is the next breed of air-cooled goodness from Indian Motorcycle. After owning 5 Indian Chief myself, you'd think this would be another of the same ole story. It's not. New parts, improved handling, stickier brakes, different attitude. Here's my take on 2023 Indian Sport Chief.

Indian's version of a Dyna
Indian's *improved* version of a Dyna.
@@spacetruckin6555 I hope so they had years to work on it especially since dyna has been gone for several years
Could just say. Indian everything Harley wishes it was.
@@victoryrider you could but it's actually reversed. Since Indian copies HD
Seeing as how you put "HD" in your username you are clearly a life long HD nut hugger and will disregard everything else no matter how good it is. 😆
Fun fact: this video took 30 hours to edit. 😮💨🤌🏾
Appreciate the long hours Bicasso! Another great video.
Holy hell! Looks good though!
Dang man. But definitely came out🤌🏼🤌🏼 beautiful work
Wow, you need a editor
@Gary Ehrhardt I can't see anyone else duplicating a Bicasso vid vibe
This is quite possibly the best video that could exist on this bike. Knowledgeable, honest and very well put together. I appreciate the hard work and time this took to make. Well done, Brandon Bicasso 💪🏽💪🏽
Thanks Fam. Took awhile to get this one out but didn’t want to rush it.
Brandon, this video may have taken you awhile but it is the best and most deliberate coverage of all the details on this bike. You're part of the reason I returned to a Indian and actually bought one of these. I've got a ICON Sport coming. I think you're starting to see how you building those bikes has allowed you to see the small details and how they come together to provide the overall experience. Effectively, you see the full picture and not just from the rider or the builder. That's a big leg up on others that choose to review this bike.
Ayeee that awesome! I wish I could’ve seen that color in person since blue is my favorite. Enjoy it!
Been silently watching you for a few months. Figure it's time to say you're doing a wonderful job on these videos and i love the indian motorcycle reviews. You're going to be the reason i drop 20k+ on a new bike this summer lol
Preciate that Fam! You'll love it!
Hey Anthomnia!
Just test rode a Chief Bobber Dark Horse and I fell in love with it. Probably what my next bike will be sometime in the future.
I've been riding for 45 years and a few miles. My dad rode Indians. Ive had a variety.. However, on a 4th HD (Night Rod) at present. You are one of the best I've seen regarding the latest version of Indian Motocycles. I think you do a top notch job and are one of the best I've seen on here in a sea of so called motorcycle experts. One dude went off on hating HD so much, it was like the factory had singled him out to fuck him over. Another sidewalk commando who grows a beard and gets a grave like voice to portray balls or manhood or both? No idea. Motorcycling is good with more choices to please (nearly) everybody. I like it that the new Indian is an underdog even though Polaris is not a small company. HD had AMF, and, finally, Indian has theirs after going though a host of other owners of the proud marque. I will be viewing your videos asap. Thanks man!!
BB. you love for Chief shines through. I love to see people enjoying what they do. Thanks again for bringing us along for the ride. Keep 'em coming!
I really like your mechanical angle on bikes, their weaknesses, design faults and how difficult they are to repair. Your enthusiasm and knowledge is second to none. A big thank you from london uk.
The block head plug is hilarious- glad to see another great video - if my dyna ever dies a chief is the replacement
Great video man, was looking forward to watching this on my weekend off!
as a old bike restorer, i like that new indians come w/ all round tubing frames. makes them look timeless and can see them being restored 50-60 years from now as classics. Harleys after the 80's frames look like abominations w/ Square Tube sections, and random tubing diameters and butt welds.
This was awesome!!!! Thank you for your efforts!!!
Great video Brandon! The 30 hours of work speaks for itself & shows!
Brandon, I have the same gauge system in my Polaris snowmobile (Ride Command). When you first start the sled it takes it a minute to figure out wear it is at. Especially when you are in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan riding. Great honest review. Looking to get bike next year once the snowmobile is paid off. Appreciate you taking your time for the review
Thank you for your effort, top infos, keep up the good works mate!
This is the video that I have been waiting to watch. The Indian Sport Chief looks like the bike for you Brandon.
Dude this was such a thorough and well done review. Best I've seen, kind of helping me settle on making this bike my next one.
Glad you enjoyed it 🤟🏾
that was a fantastic video. appreciate it and you for making it. what a great bike.
Nicely done! Very informative and great cadence with the dialogue.
Great, thorough video as always. 💪🏽💪🏽
I just want to compliment your review. It was the most professional and well spoken review I've watched on UA-cam by any motorcycle UA-camr. I'm a harley rider and do follow several channels. I hope Indian takes notice of how you present their product. Good luck to you and thanks for an excellent viewing experience.
Thank you! I've been a fan of your channel for a while because of how in depth and thoughtful you are with your commentary. I'm having the hardest time trying to decide on my next bike lol, and this is one of the three I'm considering. I'm thinking Low Rider ST (most $, but set up from the factory to be able to do long miles comfortably), a used Harley Sport Glide with low miles (cheapest on my list depending on the deals I can find, but missing quality features like dual disc brakes), and then there's obviously the Sport Chief (less than the ST but maybe more than a Sport Glide, but on the upside I wouldn't have to go to a Harley dealership and get swarmed by salesmen lol, plus the Sport Chief gets more style points in my opinion). Still don't know what I'll go with, but I appreciate this video for helping me see the perks of this one. Keep up the quality content sir!
Great video man, thank you for your time and work
Sure thing. Glad you got some value from it.
Really great review. So well articulated, edited, and clear. Very well done mate! Leaning toward an Indian Sport Chief myself and this review covered all the bases! Thank you for your work.
Thanks, Philip!
Truly love The Amazing Indian Sport Chief!!!
Great Production ❤Editing is Amazing 🤩
Thanks Mike!
I like that you like bikes THIS much.
I mean, I’m probably the only person that bought 5 in a year. 😂
Solid video, the best of this media ride yet, you did an outstanding job of articulating your opinion and the reasons behind them. Thank you.
Glad you got value from it. 💪🏾
Thank you for putting in the considerable time to edit this video. The best review I’ve seen. Honest, comprehensive, and from an experienced Indian owner’s point of view. Looking at Indians and H-D’s. Your review has me heading back to the Indian dealer.
Absolutely love the thorough, objective coverage of the bike! While this doens't take away from my desire for an Indian Challenger, it sure does make me want to ride one some day!
That "oh shiet," going over the cow stop was hilarious, and I may have chortled more than was probably needed 😆
Great review Brandon. Thank you for all the effort you put into this.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very good editing on this video: good style.
Really good information and opinions expressed here.
Fantastic review, you really told its story ot just from a technical stand point.but an emotional one. You can tell when people really love riding and love bikes. Can’t wait for you next one.👍😊
Totally enjoyed your video. Your video of the 22 chief helped me decide on getting the bike. I wanted dual disk since I've found myself a few times not being able to stop as quickly as I like but I've learned to utilize the downshifting to assist. Knowing that the dual disks bites pretty hard makes me think the single disk isn't all that bad. I did get the syndicate seat for my 22 and have to say it's amazing.
Sehr schönes Video 👍
Danke für deine Mühe 😇
Good video. Like your work on the frame and the motor, not too much out there for viewers yet. I have a chief classic and most all the work on it. I've used some of the information you've posted. Thanks, I appreciate it very much.
Your absolutely killing it with this Indian Chief content. Keep it up Brandon.
🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
I had a Judge 12 years ago, this scrape sound is pretty normal and easy to do.
I had an FJR with ABS once. I felt it kick in one time once when it was a wet street, I was coasting down to a stop anyway down a short hill. It feels really weird. That is the only time I've ever experienced ABS on a MC.
Thanks for doing such an in depth review of the sport! It's refreshing to watch a video about a bike without it being just a bunch of comparisons of another brand, or nit picking and complaining about it. The sport chief is quite the looker, but as you showed, it's quite the rider as well!
Fantastic video. Thankyou Brandon. I'm off to have a look at a Sport Chief this morning.
Sweet! Enjoy it 🤟🏾
This channel made me convince my Ducati Monster riding friend and I to hit the Indian Dealership here in Brisbane Australia. We went with the intention of checking out the Scout and primarily the Chief (any chief would have been fine). Unfortunately for us, the dealer had 0 chiefs of any kind as apparently the dealership can't even get their hands on them due to the pre-orders by consumers taking precedence! Both my friend and I were extremely disappointed in Scout compared to our existing bikes in the similar price point, but understand it's the entry level bike. I would have loved to have ridden a Chief but ended up buying a Harley Sport Glide which I am in love with. Still room in the stable for a Sport Chief in the future when Indian Dealerships in my city get their act together! Until then, living vicariously through you all!
Pretty good detailed review, Brandon. As always, fair and impartial. 👍
Much appreciated! 👌🏾
Very nice video Brandon!
great video, thank you
Hey Brandon, really enjoyed this video. Your videos seem to be getting better and better. Your content is great. However, watching made me still glad I got my Bobber and have a blast personalizing it. That Red did look great under you though! I am a shorter rider…5’6” and maybe that’s why I’m loving my Bobber. But that’s of no importance. Just preference.Anyway, gonna sit and enjoy your follow up video. Keepem coming and take care Fam!!!!!
Great vids 👌🏾🙏🏾
🫡
Found your Channel again, nice to see things are well on your end. Nice work. I see you stole my look👀
What look 👀
Very thorough review. Thanks👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
Officially goated 🐐
🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
I've read Zen five times now and the book always concludes with something that I didn't catch the first time around...The idea that Phaedrus is the hero is something that I have always wondered is true. I am more of a Work and Quality of work guy now thanks to the book. I love to ride but I love to know that what I am riding, has my workmanship. Good call out and awesome review!
Well done Brandon. Sport Chief is a winner. I’m still loving my Chieftain but like the idea of a lighter bike.
Not gonna lie, I kinda still miss my Chieftain however I can’t wait for the next time I get to ride my new Chief😊
Thank you for such a great in-depth review
Thanks for watching ✌🏾
Top Work as always brother
Knocked another one out of the park. Great camera angles. Great audio. And it looked like great food as well. The Chief Sport gets it !! Nimble and fun. Thanks for sharing. And taking us along for the ride !!
Great review and well made video
Well done!
Awesome video!
Great video man. Subbed
Thanks, Nick!
Like how you present the product!
Fantastically produced video! I subbed within the first 5 seconds of the video. Really informative too. I'm taking a chance on the "new" (hopefully it becomes a reality) Buell Super Cruiser. Got any opinions on it? If they don't deliver with that, I'm definitely considering this one. Has pretty much everything I want on a bike.
Great all around review of the Sport Chief
Wow fabulous review. Nothing like someone who knows their stuff reviewing. Very entertaining I am testing the sport cheif tomorrow and this has helped me thank you.
Enjoy!
Lol, yeah dude, that engine looks sick. Like how you left it sitting in frame the whole time during the garage convo bits. I zoomed in on it couple times to check it out.
A lot of risky work went into that. Appreciate it!
BY FAR the BEST video regarding the Sport Chief and the ride/demo that Indian invited all y'all UA-camrs to!!!!! NONE of the other "influencers" even came close!!!!! Great job!!!!!
Always so detailed and entertaining Brandon.. I'm glad to see indian are supporting you,, Australia is not even close. I ride a 2018 RM Elite with 115.000klms so far. Would definitely go the Chief for off road and solo riding. Great review. 👍
My favorite part is now getting the option for risers on the regular Chief. It might be just enough to get me to upgrade from the Scout. I'm too old to care about the other amenities that come with the Sport. 😁
Def a more compelling reason to get one. Accessories have been a weak point for Indian. It’s getting better and having these parts interchangeable is a win.
It seems that you really like Indian bikes. That is cool.
Awesome video! Which Victory would this bike be closest to? Anything Polaris put into these that reminded you of their long, lost brand?
Good videos you the man
Been looking at this bike for a minute. I ride a 2014 Victory Vision. I love it and I'm keeping. I enjoy having my wife of 44 years on the back of my bike and the Vision is the ultimate 2-up touring bike IMO. It's actually a cousin to the Indian. But I'm going to order the Chief Sport for my everyday ride. Watched a couple of your videos and that sealed my decision.
Ayeee, definitely get you a test ride on one. You'll love it.
GR8 video would love your opinion on a Sport Chief vs Low Rider S
The control housings are huge !
Nicely done
You are all looking good on those bikes. Cool AF. 'Busa rider in UK wishing you many miles of smiles. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Appreciate you, Roy! Thank you!
Amazing ride, super comftable (I am a beginner and did not felt intimidated). The digital screen looks so nice, but most times was useless, I just wanted to gave up on trying to connect my mobile or setting up a route. Navigation was painfully slow, missed a few turns because of the delayed update route (after I`ve managed to set it up: the keyboard has a back/cancel button on the left side which can be easely pressed by mistake...so you need to start over...really some UX testing would change and improve a lot). The price it`s quite high so I do have high expectations. A reverse gear option would be nice too (found myself couple of times on narrow roads and had to rourn around, was challenging with the weight and road inclination but did managed since I am a big guy, nevertheless a smaller person most likely would not be able to push it). Overall an awesome machine but still needs a little refining to match the price.
Outstanding video 🤘⚡️🤘✨✨✨
Awesome
Thanks Brandon. I haven't found anyone who is so knowledgeable and is able to communicate so well, in the way you do. Almost all of my questions answered. I would LOVE to see Indian make a statement though and make this bike MORE performance oriented, particulalry given the competetion. Thinking particularly about that ugly standard air intake. Give us the performance intake as standard please Indian, AND give us the option to add passenger pad & pegs!
This is the best video Ive seen on this bike. Fantastic job! You have a new subscriber. Question about the pegs: did your legs feel cramped on the ride? I have a 32 inch inseam and was wondering what the comfort level would be.
Not as much as Chief with a lower handle bar and riser set up. I think you’d be more comfortable on this one. Get a test ride on one. Only cost is your time and potential smiles.
When you powder coat motors like that it retains a lot more heat. But you're doing a hell of a job on those bikes.
Just got one at my dealership in KY.
Luv the set up front forks & the dual front brakes. Indian's take on the Cali/Dyna/SOA type bike to the masses. Not for me, but it should be a hot seller. Surprisingly, they didn't make the JD bike out of this bike vs a regular Chief.
Bike looks good!
Just took home my Sport Chief in the Icon Spirit Blue this week. Video is accurate and described it well. The exhaust is standard for a stock exhaust but I would have like to see a more aggressive stock exhaust look on the Sport model, but I’ll be shopping this week for a 2:1 swap. Good video. Thanks for sharing.
Enjoy it! 💪🏾
Maybe I can suggest the exhaust I have on mine. Here’s the link to a video of it: ua-cam.com/video/7f0-PjJ-lFA/v-deo.html
@@soganoflarider I was looking at the Sawicki 2:1. I purchased my Sport Chief at Indian of Charlotte but Lloyd no longer owns the dealership. Did you notice any performance difference with that pipe versus stock pipes?
@@josephbooth-oh5vi aside from it being 8 pounds lighter than stock, Sawiki states on their website that it also adds 10hp and 8 pound feet of torque on the stock tune alone
Superb review👌
The consistent improvement in production quality is becoming more and morenoticeable. I don't know if it's a new camera, or new editing software, or what... but whatever it is, keep it up brother
Will do 😅👌🏾
Greta video. Wild Hoggs!!!!!
Fun fact... Gin and Juice in the background when having lunch ❤
Well I'm happy to say that I have mine! Honestly have wanted a chief for so long after watching brandon's videos and knowing it was the bike for me. It's been an amazing upgrade so far!
That’s awesome! Enjoy it and glad I could help lead you in a cool direction. 💪🏾
@@BrandonBicasso Thanks to your videos I knew that it was the perfect bike for me. Thanks for the amazing content.
I ride a Honda atm and am a HD guy, always have been. But I love the sport chief. As most Indians they are super low center of gravity and scrape bad but this one just makes it worth it
I like it!!!
New subscriber here ... Great vid bro
Blockhead is a Super Troll lol. Kool vid. I still dig the indian line. The only things which tend to turn me off are the sharp edges, too blocky on the fairing and to be just a bit more "beefier."
I'm 5'6" so the stock handlebars would be a stretch for me. Hopefully they make some bars with a 4" pullback and cable, brake line kit for the bike that would put the bars closer to the rider. That would make it a consideration for me.
Great review my brother. I subscribe to you just because of this review I think you're a cool cat dude and you've got a lot of good information
Preciate that!
Although i love to customize anything i own that is mechanical, I've been waiting on someone to make a bike that i call "turnkey happy." This one is soooo close with their current offerings. I have less gripes about the sport chief than say the scout rogue. My boss owns a rogue and we did a 240 rear tire swap just to make that bike look right. Id like to see a different rear fender, change grips, exhaust and all that little subjective stuff. Overall its an amazing start
I wonder if the sport chief front forks will work on a chief dark horse or the slipper clutch
I explain that in detail here. ua-cam.com/video/xrGIyLWtbpE/v-deo.html
Great video. Of all the bikes in your garage I didn't see the m109r. You still have it and enjoy riding it?
Yes, it’s stored away at another location.
Look good , regards Richard London UK 🇬🇧
the best video...
