" The new Sport Chief will join the Chief, Chief Bobber and Super Chief in the Cruiser line of the brand by 2023.
The fairing minimalist is what we appreciate in the first place, since it completely changes the aesthetics of the chief, giving the most aggressive lines model and a determined posture, further increased by the high superbike type handlebar with 6 -inch turrets. However, there is more than new aesthetics here; The designers also endowed the Sport Chief with a combination of top quality components to ensure that it could live up to their appearance. 43 mm inverted Kyb fork placed at a more acute angle of 28 degrees and a shorter route, 4.4 inches.

The 4 gallon deposit has not changed, with short fenders and staggered double escapes, which also remember the family pieces seen in the other Chief models, such as LED and key lighting that complete the list of standard features.
