Ducati Panigale V4 vs Indian Chief Classic Comparison

The new Ducati Panigale V4 S has that innate quality that makes a 200-plus bhp superbike very accessible and safe around a racetrack. Sure, it's not made for less experienced riders new to litre-class superbikes, and despite the state-of-the-art electronics package, one wrong twist of the wrist can make things go wrong very quickly; after all, all that power and torque over a wide rev range is not to be fooled with, or taken lightly, by any standard.

The Indian Chief Classic was a throughbred cruiser from Indian Motorcycle. It was an iconic model and one of the finest cruisers ever built and is equipped with modern features and elegant fenders, which have featured since 1940 in all Indian Motorcycles, along with the traditional big ‘Indian’ badging on the fuel tank. The Indian Chief Classic has been discontinued.
