The 2023 Indian Chief carries the same recipe as the year before — Thunder Stroke 111 V-twin, single round gauge, no factory screen — now offered in a deeper color palette that includes Stryker Red Metallic, Stealth Gray and Spirit Blue Smoke. None of those paint options change the infotainment story: there's still nothing to bypass, because the Chief never shipped with a touchscreen. HogPlay's 7-inch CarPlay and Android Auto screen fills that gap directly, with its own speakers and a plug-and-play mount that leaves the stock bike underneath untouched.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2023 Indian Chief left the factory with no radio, stereo or touchscreen to bypass — so instead of a workaround, you add your own. A standalone HogPlay Media Screen is a 7-inch head unit with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, live Maps & Waze navigation, calls and streaming built in — we recommend the Screen 7 Pro with its onboard DVR drive-cam. Most riders settle for Bluetooth-only kits that leave the phone in your pocket with no turn-by-turn directions; this puts it all on the bars instead. It mounts to the handlebars with basic power and ground and comes off just as easily, so reach out to the HogPlay team if you'd like a hand. (Media Box support on Screens is in development.)

Where the touring Indians (Chieftain, Roadmaster, Springfield) all run a 7-inch Ride Command display with wired-only CarPlay, the 2023 Chief takes the opposite approach — it has no factory screen at all. That makes it one of the more straightforward HogPlay installs in the lineup: no bypass module, no paired-headset workaround, just a self-contained 7-inch CarPlay and Android Auto screen with built-in speakers that mounts to the bars or dash. Riders get full wireless CarPlay and Android Auto on a bike Indian never wired for it in the first place.
The HogPlay Media Screen on the 2023 Indian Chief runs a dual-Bluetooth design — pair your phone for wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on one channel while the other feeds an auxiliary amplifier, handlebar speakers or a portable Bluetooth speaker. A small built-in speaker handles turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio on the move, and the fully sealed, waterproof housing is built rugged to stand up to the weather and the elements the 2023 Indian Chief rides in.
