Starklite Cycle Retirement Sale

February 28, 2022

Dear Indian Owner,

Since 1918, when Charles Stark opened his Indian dealership in Akron, Ohio, three generations of the Stark Family, Charles, Bob and myself, have been supplying parts and service for your Indian Motorcycles. It’s now time for me to retire. I appreciate all our long-term customers and want to thank you for the years of support.

Our retirement sale is now active on our website. Please browse our website and look for any parts you might need. As retirement nears, we are no longer ordering production runs of parts. As these parts are depleted, they will not be replaced. We do have several outstanding orders that will be added to inventory in the coming weeks. We will continue to produce our 4-Speed Transmissions during our retirement. So, you can continue riding your Indian Chief in overdrive for years to come with a steady supply of parts available.

Thank you for your support over the past 100+ years. I am looking forward to slowing down my day-to-day activities. Thirty plus years of 6-7 days per week and ten-hour days has taken a toll. Retirement will allow me more time with my family, motorcycles, antique cars, antique airplanes, and horseback riding. Also, I am looking forward to having more time to attend road runs.
