It has emerged that Indian Motorcycles would unveil the new 2014 Indian Chief on August 3 at Sturgis. The bike will be unveiled at an event at 999 Main Street at the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame. The unveiling event will also comprise of a guest appearance from Mike Wolfe, interactions with Indian officials and an audio/video tribute to Indian’s past.
It is pretty much for sure that the iconic bike maker is readying itself to step into the fast developing Indian bike market. The manufacturer might arrive in our country as soon as in 2014 and the new Indian Chief will be the first Indian Motorcycles product that will go on sale in our country.
We aren’t too surprised to know that the manufacturer is headed our way, what with most international bike makers deciding to open shop in India? With Harley Davidson already here and Indian Motorcycles coming next year, Indian cruiser-bike lovers are looking all set for a treat.
