Factory USB locationFactory USB port (Ride Command)
Fairing Stylebagger fairing

The 2020 Indian Chieftain Limited launched the chrome-dressed Limited trim into Indian's Ride Command era — the first model year the Limited carried a 7-inch touchscreen in its fairing, running Apple CarPlay from the factory but only over a plugged-in cable. A HogPlay USB-C bypass adaptor cuts that cord so CarPlay pairs wirelessly, and a HogPlay Media Box or Piglet layers in Android Auto and your streaming apps. It all plugs into the factory USB on the air-cooled Thunder Stroke 116, reversible and dealer-free. 2020 finishes ran from Thunder Black Pearl and Radar Blue to a bolder Burnt Orange Metallic, Dragon Green, and a Thunder Black with Graphics option.

USB-C Bypass Required

The factory 7" Ride Command runs Apple CarPlay by USB cable only — no wireless, and no Android Auto. A HogPlay USB-C bypass makes CarPlay wireless, then a Media Box or Piglet adds Android Auto and streaming apps.

We also stock universal parts that fit the 2020 Indian Chieftain Limited and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2020 Indian Chieftain Limited

The Chieftain Limited is the chrome-trimmed member of Indian's hard-bagger family — a fixed, frame-mounted fairing over hard saddlebags and the air-cooled Thunder Stroke 116 V-twin. 2020 was the first model year the Limited carried the 7-inch Ride Command touchscreen, and the lineup leaned toward bold color choices that year: Thunder Black Pearl, Radar Blue, Burnt Orange Metallic, Dragon Green, and a graphics-package Thunder Black. Ride Command supports Apple CarPlay out of the box, but only tethered to a USB cable, and Indian has never offered factory Android Auto. HogPlay's USB-C wireless bypass adaptor unlocks wireless CarPlay, and a Media Box or Piglet adds Android Auto and streaming — see the Indian Ride Command radio page (/pages/indian-ride-command-radio) for how the factory system is built. Everything plugs into the factory USB and harness, no cutting, no splicing.
