MITCHELL, SD August 6, 2026 | Indian® Motorcycle and Klock Werks officially unveiled a one-of-a-kind custom Indian Challenger® built for country artist Redferrin during the 19th Annual Palace City Pre-Sturgis Party in Mitchell, South Dakota. The custom motorcycle continues a 12-year collaboration between Indian® Motorcycle and Klock Werks, following a series of celebrated custom builds created alongside Jack Daniel’s® Tennessee Whiskey.
Designed and built by the Klock Werks team, the Challenger features custom paint by Mickey Harris of Menno, South Dakota, bringing together American craftsmanship, performance, and a design inspired by Jack Daniel’s heritage. The motorcycle was revealed before a packed crowd gathered inside the Klock Werks headquarters as riders from across the country made their way to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
Following the unveiling, riders joined the community ride from Klock Werks to downtown Mitchell, officially kicking off the city’s annual Palace City Pre-Sturgis Party. The evening concluded with a live outdoor performance by country artist Redferrin at the Corn Palace Plaza, capping off a full day of activities celebrating motorcycles, music, and community.
Throughout the day, Klock Werks welcomed visitors during its annual open house, beginning with the company’s signature morning meeting before opening its doors to riders and families. Downtown festivities featured the Quick Draw exhibit, 301 Rodz Car Show, Shifter Crew Motorcycle Show, Kids Zone, Strider Bike demos, food trucks, LFG 1904 Biker Games, a mechanical bull, Two Rivers vintage tractors, and stunt performances by Rob of One Wheel Revolution.
“So much great energy – from Donnie Smith to Mickey Cohen and Bobby Woods, young up-coming builders and legends congregated to make a community-day of fun and motorcycles. Thanks to Indian Motorcycles and Jack Daniels for 15 years of design excellence celebrated today with Redferrin,” commented Brian Klock, Klock Werks Founder, Visionary, and President.
