Indian Chief Bobber Dark Horse Overview

A low 662 mm seat and 162 Nm of torque give the Indian Chief Bobber Dark Horse a distinctive cruiser appeal. Its Tour, Standard and Sport modes let riders choose between three power delivery settings, while cruise control and a Bluetooth-connected 4-inch display with map navigation add useful support on longer rides. Dual-channel ABS can help prevent either wheel from locking under hard braking.

The 315 kg kerb weight is a consideration when moving or parking the bike, and there is no pillion seat. Its claimed mileage is 14 kmpl, with a claimed riding range of 211 km. The seat height matches the Indian Chief Dark Horse, but this bike is 11 kg heavier and priced above it. Against the Harley-Davidson Fat Bob, it has a lower seat and is priced below, but its claimed mileage is lower than the Fat Bob’s 18 kmpl.

  • 162 Nm of torque gives this large cruiser strong stated pulling force.
  • A 662 mm seat height can make reaching the ground easier for shorter riders.
  • Dual-channel ABS helps prevent both wheels from locking under hard braking.
  • Three riding modes offer Tour, Standard and Sport settings.
  • Cruise control and map navigation support longer rides.

What we like

  • Low seat height compared with the Harley-Davidson Fat Bob.
  • Dual-channel ABS and disc brakes at both ends.
  • Cruise control, Bluetooth connectivity and map navigation are included.
  • Rear shock preload can be adjusted.

What could be better

  • At 315 kg, it is a heavy bike to manoeuvre when stationary.
  • No pillion seat is listed.
  • Claimed mileage is 14 kmpl, below the Harley-Davidson Fat Bob’s 18 kmpl.
  • Traction control is not available.

Best for: It suits solo riders seeking a low-seat, high-torque cruiser for relaxed longer rides who can accommodate its weight and claimed fuel use.
