The regular Chief has more chrome than the Dark Horse version and adds cruise control, otherwise, they are iden cal. Like the Dark Horse, the Chief has 16- inch cast wheels. IndIan ChIef CLaSSIC The 2018 Indian Chief Classic at $19,500 is $1,000 more than the 2017 version. The Chief Classic is differen ated from the Classic and Dark Horse with white wall res, wire wheels, and chrome hand controls. The Chief Classic looks a li le more retro than the other cruisers, but its handsome Burgundy Metallic paint contrasts well with the massive chromed components. 2018 IndIan baggerS Indian has more motorcycles that it calls "baggers" in its 2018 lineup than in any other category. The defining feature is the presence of saddle bags, either leather — with or without fringe — or hardcase double rear storage Model Chief Dark Horse Chief Chief Classic Star ng price $17,500 $18,500 $19,500 Engine type V-twin V-twin V-twin Displacement 111ci / 1,811cc 111ci / 1,811cc 111ci / 1,811cc Max torque (lb- ) 119@3,000 RPM 119@3,000 RPM 119@3,000 RPM Engine cooling Air Air Air Transmission 6-speed 6-speed 6-speed ABS brakes standard standard standard Wheelbase (inches) 68.1 68.1 68.1 Seat height (inches, laden) 26 26 26 Wheels front/rear (inch - es) 16/16 16/16 16/16 Dry weight (pounds) 745 745 758 compartments.
