Andres Soto is a genuine member of the big biker family and we at Indian Motorcycle are honoured that he is buying one of the first Chiefs in Europe.
Andres lives in Murcia in Spain and only ever travels by bike. For years, he rode Harley Davidsons. When the
return of the Indian, the make of his dreams, was announced in 2013, he immediately went to see his local
dealer where he paid a deposit without even seeing the model. He just wanted the first one to come in. His
Chief Classic First is already a collector’s bike, with the number #1035 on its side, identifying it as one of
the first 1,901 machines to leave the production line in Spirit Lake.
For his first ride on his Chief, Andres rode to the Elephants Rally in Germany, a traditional annual winter meeting created in 1956 that takes place early in the year. The hallmark of this genuine pilgrimage is the invariably bitter cold. It is frequented by hardcore bikers, such as Andres, who ride on frozen snow-covered ground to get there.
An avid biker, he never misses a meeting, gathering or concert, which punc-tuate his life. In doing so he flies our colours making him a true Indian ambassador. As proof, his Chief already has over 80,000 km on the clock.
