Some things must come to an end...

Because I bought the last of this dealers 2015 Indian Cheiftains. I couldn't pass up the incentives and I was able to unload my Road Glide Ultra.

I will be officially listing my Voyager for sale after it returns from recall work. It will probably not go until March or so but no worries.

2012 Voyager w/ABS 36k stock with K&N drop in.
New rear tire and rear brakes.
Rays throttle mod.
Wolo air horn.
Kuryakyn grips.
I will throw in Chucksters risers.

If anyone knows anyone looking...I will kick someone finders fee.

A lot a great info to be had here.

Congrats. The chieftan is a sweet looking bike, much nicer than the roadmaster. That fairing is ugly as chitt in my opinion.

Congratulations on the new Chieftain.
Chieftain and Roadmaster share the same fairing.

I test rode a Vintage last winter down in Texas. Nice bike but I just can't make myself spend more than ten grand for a bike. Enjoy the ride.

I LOVE my Vaq but when I attended the Indian demo weekend back in 2013 and rode the Chieftain, I was impressed. NO, thoroughly impressed. Made my Vaq feel, well, unimpressionable. That experience with the Indian has me doin the wait n see so Indian can get all the bugs out and apply a Japanese quality pant job.

I don't blame you one bit. Tho the Vulcans are fine skoots but the Indians is a cut above in many ways.

Congrats and enjoy!!!

It is the nicest bike I have ever owned/ridden. I traded my 2011 Road Glide Ultra and no love loss there. I would never buy another Harley.

The owner said to me "you will see a used Harley on an Indian dealer floor, but you will never see a used Indian on a Harley dealer floor"...LOL!

I got the bike this past Saturday and have 250 miles at various speeds. All I can say is wow.
