The Sport Chief RT, the sportiest model in Indian Motorcycles’ Chief Cruiser lineup for 2025, was first shown. The Sport Chief lineup has been expanded with the Sport Chief RT.
Its air-cooled, V-twin, Thunderstroke 116ci (1890cc) engine generates 156Nm of torque, same as the previous Chief versions. It’s interesting to note that this torque is less than that of the Sport Chief, which produces 162Nm.
The only motorbike in its lineup with inverted forks up front is the Sport Chief RT; these KYB units cannot be adjusted. At the back, it has dual Fox shocks that can be remotely adjusted for both compression and rebound.

It has Metzeler Cruisetec tires on a 19-inch front and 16-inch rear alloy wheel set-up. Twin Brembo 4-piston calipers up front with dual-channel ABS are in charge of braking. Unlike the axially placed calipers on previous Chief models, these are radially mounted.
The Sport Chief RT receives high-end factory components that were previously optional, and it expands upon the same feature set as the basic Sport Chief. Along with 37 liters of combined storage, it comes with all-weather locking rigid saddlebags, which are an add-on for other Chief models.
In terms of functionality, it has a 3.97-inch touch-operated TFT display with two gauge designs that can be used to access a variety of information, including music selection, audio settings, and bike and ride information. It has handlebar controls to facilitate mobility. Additionally, you have the option to switch between three ride modes: Tour, Standard, and Sport. Additionally, the Sport Chief RT has keyless ignition.

Compared to previous Indian models, the Sport Chief has more aggressive look, which is emphasised by longer handlebars and a little visor over the front bikini fairing. It has an adjustable LED headlamp that adjusts the lighting based on the bike’s lean position.

With a Thunderstroke 116ci engine, three ride modes, a TFT display, and all-weather saddlebags, it smoothly combines technology, performance, and touring capabilities. Sport Chief RT is a must buy for all the bike enthusiast.
