PASSION SHARED ACROSS GENERATIONS
Ride far enough and you’ll go back in time. The Chief Vintage combines the timeless sense
of yesteryear with the modern capabilities today’s riders demand.
A look that takes signature pieces of our storied past and brings them back in all the right
ways. Desert Tan Genuine Leather saddlebags, chrome front end and an air-cooled Thunder Stroke®
111 Engine that look like they're straight out of an old photo. Even though the Chief Vintage
borrows a few iconic styling cues from history, every ride is brand new.
