Pros and Cons in comparison

Indian Super Chief Limited 2021

A US-American V2 as it is in the book, cast in a beautiful shell - the Indian Super Chief Limited is a real treat. Pure cruising with classic looks and classic virtues. Of course, if you're expecting records for braking distance, high speed or lean angles, you're on the wrong side of the tracks. Everyone else will experience moments of happiness in the saddle. The windshield and side panniers make it a real touring machine that can also be turned into a minimalist cruiser in no time at all. The price is reasonable, but that doesn't make the Super Chief a bargain.
