Indian Motorcycles is known for its prestigious lineup of motorcycles. Both in the past and present, this American brand has produced some of the most recognizable bikes on the road. Aside from their unique charm and impressive performance, Indian motorcycles also serve as excellent platforms for custom builds. Enter the “Rage,” a custom Indian Sport Chief created by Krazy Horse in collaboration with Richard Jones, the bassist, keyboardist, and vocalist of the British rock band Stereophonics. Krazy Horse specializes in custom builds focusing on Indian’s cruiser range, and the Rage is their latest addition. Their builds strike a balance between style and functionality, and the Rage is no exception. The bike was designed with the unique road conditions in the U.K. in mind, resulting in a distinct “British look and feel.”
The collaboration between Indian Motorcycles and Krazy Horse has resulted in a visually appealing build that pays attention to the finer details. The cockpit has been customized with tasteful parts from Wunderkind, a custom bike parts manufacturer. These parts include new grips, clutch and brake levers, master cylinder covers, foot pegs, and a gear shifter. They work together to give the bike a bespoke and factory-fresh appearance. Additionally, the Rage features several one-off custom parts. Richard Jones himself helped design the sand-cast aluminum derby cover, and a custom belly pan with integrated cooling fins was added to help regulate the temperature of the bike’s powerful 1,890cc engine.
The aesthetic elements of the build are equally as impressive. Krazy Horse designed custom sand-cast aluminum side covers to give the bike a unique look. The turn signals were relocated to the front cowl and rear fender to create a more streamlined aesthetic. The build is completed with a stunning custom paint job from Pageant Paintwork, featuring a black and blue design with silver pin striping. The saddle was also hand-painted with a custom tattoo design by Rich Jones.
To enhance its road presence, the Rage is equipped with a custom two-into-one performance exhaust system from OJZ Engineering and a Billet Performance air filter.
