That is usually the case for the uninitiated in India.

To top it off, I only had a total of 6 days to do everything, including adjusting my biorhythm to the almost 12 hours of time difference between Los Angeles and New Delhi.

There were people from all nationalities who were getting ready to ride the motorcycles they rented and romance the American highways which are especially exotic to someone who is coming from Europe where you rarely have the emptiness and rustic charm of the US country roads and highways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-31-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-31-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-31-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-31.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-45-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-45-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-45-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-45.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It was then that I spotted the odd one out. Amongst a load of Harleys, an amazingly beautiful Indian Chieftain awaited me. It was blue, Springfield blue to be exact. A gentleman that I met on the road told me that it\u2019s called Springfield Blue because it is one of the most common town names in the USA. Not sure how accurate that is but I instantly fell in love with that colour. Not only that, they added a personal touch by having a post-it on the tank with my name on it! How cool is that!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-40-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-40-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-40-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-40.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-96-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-96-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-96-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-96.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The bike, even though it was a rental, looked brand new and was immaculately kept and serviced. Eagle Riders surely are a great bunch of pros! What overwhelmed me was the amount of chrome on the bike. It was simply beautiful! There is no other word for it and I do mean it from the bottom of my heart! The Indian Chieftain is a hard bagger which meant that I had decent space to put my five days\u2019 worth of stuff in it. After completing the packing I stored my suitcase in the Eagle Rider facility (another great advantage) and thumbed the starter on the bike to start the journey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-87-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-87-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-87-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-87.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-81-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7204\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-81-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-81-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-81.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chieftain comes with a keyless function where the bike and the panniers can be operated with the key in your pocket. The handle lock is near the right side fork column and is a bit of a stretch sometimes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have said enough about how much I love the looks of the bike. The last time I rode an Indian was in Sydney, Australia. That was a Vintage with its beautiful brown side panniers and a more classic look. This one essentially is the same bike with hard baggers and a fairing that provides wind protection and a great audio system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-78-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-78-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-78-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-78.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-69-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-69-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-69-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-69.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The 1,800 V-twin is a beautiful chrome-treated mill which makes it the centre of attraction in the bike. It looks meaty and big enough for you to comfortably hold your head high in any cruiser mega meet that you might find yourself in. Not just that, the key design elements of the Chieftain are its front yin-yang-styled wheel cover with a transparent glowing Indian Chief\u2019s head on it. This coupled with the hard fairing and integrated indicators make for a wonderful mega cruiser look.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1365\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-28-1365x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-28-1365x1024.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-28-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-28-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-28.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1365px) 100vw, 1365px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-8-1536x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-8-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.xbhp.com\/roadtrips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Indian-on-Indian-USA-8.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Indian golden head is present on both sides of the blue tank and looks classy.
