A 1948 Indian Chief that hadn’t turned over in forty years sat quiet at Kiwi Motorcycles in Riverside, California, until a small crew decided to find out if the engine had actually died or just gone to sleep. What came next was a cloud of exhaust smoke, a rough idle settling into a steady thump, and a comment section full of riders who still remember exactly what a stock flathead V-twin sounds like. Watch to see if forty years of silence really was the end.
