Polaris Japan will bring five units of the Chief Vintage Sturgis SD Edition to Japan, part of a global run of 125 units marking Indian's 125th anniversary. Priced at 3.98 million yen and sold by lottery, it packs the air-cooled Thunderstroke 116 (1,890cc, 156 Nm) with 1930s-inspired classic red and cream paint. Deliveries start in November; entries close September 30.

Look at the spec sheet: the Thunderstroke 116, 1,890cc, 156 Nm — that lump of low-rev torque is the whole point of a cruiser. It's got the 4-inch RIDE COMMAND and three ride modes too. And a serial badge for all 125 units — this is the good part. The numbers alone stir the urge to own it.

Just carrying the Sturgis name makes it worth owning.

Classic red and cream is cheating. Total love at first sight.

For the same 3.98M you could grab a Harley CVO — tough call.

Air-cooled 1,890cc and 156 Nm — the numbers alone punch your urge to own it.

So a serial badge really carries that much value, huh.

3.98 million yen, 125 worldwide, only 5 in Japan — whether you can buy it is pure luck.

Forget running costs — winning the lottery looks like the hard part.
