Ozzy Osbourne: Rock, rebellion and two wheels
Ozzy Osbourne, born in 1948 in Birmingham and known as the “Prince of Darkness”, forever changed the heavy metal panorama as the main voice of Black Sabbath. But his rebellion was not limited to the stage: outside of him, his passion for motorcycles reflected that same free and groundbreaking spirit.
Its collection, which includes from Custom Choppers to powerful Cruiser with V8 engine, has been as much in memory as its devastating riffs. Although we show you the most characteristics, we cannot forget that he was also a lover of the motorcycles of Cross and the mythical Yamaha Banshee, which auctioned years ago.

Boss Hoss V8 – Gross Power with Cause
Ozzy Osbourne also had a Boss hoss With Chevrolet V8 motor (2003 model), a beast of almost 5-7 liters and more than 355 hp, capable of reaching the theoretical 180 mph.
In May 2003, Ozzy signed this motorcycle for the NGO BADD (Bikers Against Drunk Drivers), which later raffled to raise funds against driving under the effects of alcohol.
Indian Sport Chief RT – Barefic Power
In July 2025, taking advantage of the historic return of Black Sabbath to the stage, Indian Motorcycle, along with Krazy Horse, personalized a Sport Chief RT especially for Ozzy:
- Aesthetics inspired by Black Sabbath and Ozzy (dark and rebel graphics)
- Custom painting also in a Gibson SG donated by Gibson
- Signed by Ozzy and his companions in Backstage
- Collection destination: gifts to Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Acorn Children’s Hospice
That Indian has collaborated with Ozzy Osbourne and Gothica Krazy Horse for this project is not accidental: both cultures – that of rock and biker – share values such as freedom, power and an authentic commitment to their lifestyle.
From his custom chopper to the pieces designed for a solidarity event, Ozzy Osbourne motorcycles were more than machines. They were visual narratives of his life: imposing, personalized and without ties.
His legacy keeps rolling
Yesterday a myth left, but his spirit is still alive. The motorcycles that pilot or inspired reflected their essence: intensity, mixture of gross art and strength, authenticity and commitment. Ozzy Osbourne taught that a motorcycle can be a canvas and a channel for solidarity.
Today we honor the Prince of Darkness. Thanks, Ozzy. Keep roaring in each acceleration.
