Indian has unveiled the Chief Vintage Sturgis SD Edition, a limited model paying tribute to the origins of the world's largest motorcycle rally. Just 125 units will be built, each featuring a 1940s-inspired red-and-cream livery, a multicolor Warbonnet tank logo, a hand-painted-style '56' on the side panels echoing the rally's earliest hand-numbered racers, and an individual serial plate.

Looking back, the Sturgis rally began with just nine riders and two hundred spectators in 1938. The number 56 painted on this bike's flanks is a nod to those early hand-numbered racers. Seeing the 1940s color scheme, I can't help but feel the weight of nearly ninety years. Though what's inside that Ride Command touchscreen is frankly beyond me.

What can the Ride Command system actually do? Is it easy for a beginner to use?

The Thunderstroke 116 is shared with existing models. The differentiation seems limited to paint and the number graphic.

No price listed, which worries me. Limited editions are usually pricey, so this might be out of reach.

That number 56 really nods to the early rally days. I appreciate this kind of attention to detail.

I'd love to ride all the way to Sturgis someday and experience the rally atmosphere firsthand.

That Warbonnet logo with the red-and-cream paint is amazing. 125 units makes me want one even more.

Limited editions usually just mean a higher price tag. Not sure what limiting the run really achieves.
