Color choice widened for the 2023 Chief Dark Horse, with five finishes on offer — Sagebrush Smoke, Black Smoke, Quartz Gray, Storm Blue and a Dark Horse Storm Blue — all riding on the same air-cooled Thunder Stroke 116 as the year before. The cockpit hasn't changed: one round gauge, no touchscreen, and nothing from Indian that speaks Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. HogPlay fills that space with a 7-inch CarPlay and Android Auto screen built around its own speakers, so whichever finish you pick gets the same navigation, calls and streaming, powered off universal USB and removable without a trace.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2023 Indian Chief Dark Horse 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.)

For 2023, Indian gave the Chief Dark Horse its broadest color spread yet — Sagebrush Smoke, Black Smoke, Quartz Gray, Storm Blue and a dedicated Dark Horse Storm Blue — while keeping the mechanical formula unchanged: the air-cooled Thunder Stroke 116, cast wheels, and a stripped, single-gauge cockpit with no factory screen. That means no Apple CarPlay and no Android Auto out of the box, regardless of which of the five finishes you're sitting on. HogPlay's 7-inch CarPlay and Android Auto display adds both, with built-in speakers replacing the sound system the bike never had and universal USB power keeping the install simple. It mounts up front, adds nothing permanent, and comes off clean if you ever go back to stock.
The HogPlay Media Screen on the 2023 Indian Chief Dark Horse 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 Dark Horse rides in.
