Geelong. Terrible mechanic. The fact the workshop is also an LDV workshop with a parttime Indian motorcycle mechanic should have been the give away. After 4 months of waiting my part arrived only to find out they ordered the wrong part....so another 4 months of waiting I guess. After the first...

I brought both the saddleman GP-V1 and the Track LS to replace the stock seat because it didn't work for me. Both aftermarket options are better than stock but I settled on keeping the Track LS and selling the GP-V1. It's only seen a few hours of usage and has been living in the box it arrived...

The bike I had where it occurred wasn't an Indian and wasn't showing any error lights. The workshop manual mentioned trouble starting issues and the vacuum lines as a possible cause. I had tried a few things already that didn't work so decided to replace the lines out of desperation. After that...

I've had a similar issue on a previous bike. For me it was a vacuum leak. While a crack in the hose wasn't visible replacing the hoses fixed the issue.

Love the bike. Hate the dealership in Aus. The first service they charged a fortune and a week later I had the bike halfway stripped down fixing what they had messed up. If it goes to a mechanic again it likely won't be the dealership. Another pain point is a small warranty claim that I...

Nice bike 😜 Does the screen make a noticeable difference on the hwy?

No idea sorry. Just wanted to say that garage setup is great. And a whole corner dedicated to a tyre machine!

Nevermind I've figured it out. It's the pressure sensor. On the 2022 it's been moved from the rear caliper.

Just curious about the function of this wire on the rear brake cylinder on my 2022 S. Ive got a 2019 service manual but I don't see it as part of that model. Thanks.

Not sure but it seems like alot of people are having the same issue with different cords and chargers, https://discussions.apple.com/thread/255169943?sortBy=best

Ive owned a bunch of big bikes but the ftr is certainly unique. The engine is a monster and puts a smile on the face as the revs climb. But not having a tank to grip onto with the legs makes it interesting to control at speed. Definitely a bike to ride with caution if starting out.

Good idea! https://www.billetproofdesign.com/aeromach-aluminum-skid-plate-debris-shield-for-indian-scout-ftr1200-and-victory-octane-models-ci-1900/

Good to know, thanks

I was just cleaning the bike today and found these empty screw holes on the bottom of the engine. I assume I'm not missing screws and instead they are just used during manufacturing?

Everything else seemed brand new though. Pads, tyres, stickers over lights etc
