Brandon, It was an absolute please to be able to show you everything ive done to the bike. I do have a couple updates on the things in this video. the carbon fiber company that i DO recommend is TNA Custom, they make every body part for the chief and other indians. The other thing is i said that the brakes wobble until they warm up. it turned out that the wheel weights had fallen off of my front wheel which was causing the shake because they werent balanced. I got a new tire and noticed they were not on there. with the wheel balanced, there is no more shimmy on braking. I love the lyndalls! So glad that we got to catch up, and ill be back again im sure! also to everyone commenting, thank you so much! glad that other people like what ive done with it as well.
Man, this is exactly what Indian should’ve done to the Sport Chief RT but with hard bags. Instead they came up with the lamest refresh ever… Absolutely gorgeous bike!
Would a Challenger front end and wheel fit the Super Chief trees or did you have to change out the trees to make up for axle length due to the second caliper and rotor or are they all the same length?
No, the Sport Chief and Challenger have different diameter fork tubes. You would need Sport Chief or Challenger upper/lower triple, fork tubes, brake calipers, brake line, wheel, fender, rotors to make this set up work.
the forks dont fit the super chief tree because theyre inverted so they are wider at the top than the super chief forks. i had to use a sport chief triple tree. i tried with the challenger triple tree and it sits too far back and makes contact with the tank. the forks from the challenger work, thats what i have, but i am under the impression that they are longer than the sport chief forks but im not sure by how much. the wheel is also from a challenger. the axle is actually the same as the super chief.

Thanks for sharing! This was a great reunion!

Nathan really made that his own, and you made it possible. Love this!
I love hearing about the Chief. It brings me closer to my ‘22 😊
Now that’s how you mod out a chief 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
This is my favorite custom Chief yet, like ever, and I've seen a lot of custom builds. Killer build Nathan!
thank you so much!
Awesome setup! Great to see how it’s been matched to its rider.
That is a sick paint job and set up. So this is the guy that won my bike! He is now my enemy lol
Who would have thought there were so many custom options available for the Indian Chief? 🙂
😂
I like the colours. The flames on blue...
So cool to see what came about with this bike! 🔥

Could have been another “certain” Chief alongside for the ride…… an “Alumina Jade Green” one ……….just sayin’ 😂 Awesome personal touches Nate🤘😎
sorry buck! guess ill have to go back!
This bike is so amazing. Well done!
thank you!
