Indian and Jack Daniels Limited-Edition Chieftain

Seeing as how Road Grub is the meeting place between the ride and the restaurant, it's only sensible that we talk about The Limited Edition Jack Daniel’s Indian Chief Vintage being produced in very limited quantities, along with some JD cocktail recipes to boot. The two companies teamed with bagger Jedi Brian Klock to launch the iconic Indian Chief Vintage platform to a whole new level with an array of genuine Indian Motorcycle accessories and custom accessories, as well as Jack Daniel’s-inspired custom paint and logos, badging, leather saddle, and saddlebags. The bike’s front fender is also inscribed with the names of the seven Master Distillers who have overseen the Jack Daniel’s distilling process over its 150-year history. Final customization work was designed and completed by Brian Klock and his inspired team at Klock Werks in Mitchell, S.D.

The 2016 Limited Edition Jack Daniel’s Indian Chief Vintage was on display January 23-31 at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Collector Car Auction. It will also make an appearance at a series of events throughout 2016 including Daytona Bike Week, taking place March 4-13. Ultimately, this first-in-the-series display bike will be auctioned at the Barrett-Jackson Auction in Las Vegas, which takes place October 6-8. All monies raised from the charity auction will be donated to support “Operation Ride Home,” a partnership between the Jack Daniel Distillery and the Armed Services YMCA that provides funding and travel assistance to help junior-enlisted military personnel spend time with their families during the holiday season.
