This past weekend, at the Barber Vintage Motorcycle Festival, Indian Motorcycle debuted a custom Indian Chief like never before.
From cruiser to racer, the RT-3/4 custom Indian Chief was designed by Noise Cycles and brought to life by Zach Hindes.
Have a glimpse of the photos of the completed build, along with a series of videos filmed and directed by Scott Toepfer.
As you can see, the build and specs is unique as its concept & execution.
Next step: Paint.

In this second stage of the custom RT-4/13 Indian Chief Zach Hindes brings things from design to reality. Lots of modifying existing pieces and hand-fabricated parts will make this road and race machine work as it should, and look incredible.
