THUNDERSTROKE 116 V-TWIN ENGINE

Everything about Sport Chief RT was purpose-built from the factory to perform. The legendary air-cooled Thunderstroke 116 V-Twin produces 156 Nm of torque that dominates in all 6 gears, giving you the power to leave everything in your exhaust.

RIDE & OWNERSHIP ENHANCEMENTS

Design detail meets modern function on the Limited +Tech Trim with the 4" Display, powered by RIDE COMMAND. Experience effortless cruising with GPS navigation, Bluetooth® connection, and other ride-enhancing features.

STABLE AND PRECISE HANDLING

Forward controls, adjustable 23-click piggyback shocks, and responsive inverted KYB® forks with Brembo® brakes provide a direct feel at the lever and pedal with incredible stopping power, delivering curve-hugging handling and unyielding stability for you to carve every corner.

CUSTOM INSPIRED STYLE
