    Hi All, I have been a big fan if Indian motorcycles for ages and finally at 55 (probably a midlife crisis) LOL I decided it was way past time to get on 2 wheels. Found a nice very low mile chieftain the other day, really wanted to throw the money down and ride away but 2 things were keeping me...
  2. Indian Motorcycle Tech Q & A
    I have a special request from you Fellas and Gals. I am needing a photo of where the side stand spring attaches to the frame on a Chieftain or Roadmaster. I don’t know if Indian changed the location of the spring attachment from earlier to late models. I broke my spring yesterday right at the...

    So I came home today to see my 2014 Chieftain was leaning way to much. Checked the kickstand and it is cracking. 2 weeks after the extended warranty ran out. I knew this was a problem on the early bikes and I have always checked it. Had started to thing I was going to get lucky, not. Well to...
  4. Indian Motorcycle Tech Q & A
    Hi guys! I’m a happy owner of 2015 Indian Scout recently. I have only one problem - it's actually not a problem, but it bothers me. While tracking various threads on the forum, I noticed that when it comes to the kickstand switch, the opinions are totally different – just like in any topic...

    The bike is leaning over more and when I put it up it hits the bottom of the clutch. I looked under and nothing is cracked or broke. I cannot tell if it is bent but I am going to say it is because things have changed. Any help here would help. Do I just need a new stand or is the frame bent? I...
  6. Indian Roadmaster
    Well, went out to the garage today and the Roadmaster is leaning WAY WAY over on the sidestand. Can't tell if something is bent or what. Will be at the dealer tomorrow.

    Ok... I need a hand here because I'm stumped... the bike turns on/idles normally, but as soon as I drop it into first (with the clutch lever pulled) it stalls out... I checked/adjusted clutch cable, not sure what else to do. My thoughts are it has something to do with the tuner, I'll explain...
  8. Indian Roadmaster
    I just picked up a used, 2016 Roadmaster over the weekend. Lots of things that I love about it, it's the most comfortable bike I've owned. I do have the windshield rattle, need to look into that. But my biggest complaint is the kickstand. Ever other bike has had the spring set up so it...

    :( The side stand on my 2017 Road Master failed letting the bike fall over with my wife on board . The down tube twisted and down she went .It was sitting on level concrete slab .My dealer was ready to make needed repairs and Polaris stopped them {quote-- until further notice--} No estimated...
  10. Indian Scout
    I was disappointed to find out there's nothing to keep my scouts kick stand from folding up. I have to keep that in mind when I park my bike.

    The kickstand on my 2014 Vintage just broke the top flange tab off the kickstand itself and planted the bike over on it's side with me under it. Still had my foot pushing it out when over we went. Had not felt any looseness in it before. Evidently the bolt is screw up through the bottom of the...
  12. Indian Chieftain
    The other day while parking my bike (2014 Chieftain), I've noticed that my kickstand had a crack near the area where the bike's weight rest on. My only concern is the entire bike could eventually fall. Like I stated, the crack is NEAR the are where weight of the bike rest. Are kickstands under...

    That sounds wrong. I don't want it longer, just need something to extend from the kick stand at full extension so I can reach it with my boot and pull it back. Have seen a few hokey generic bolt on parts, but nothing I would spend good money on yet. Have a 2014 Vintage. At full extension the...
  14. Indian Scout Guides and How-To's
    Hello Everyone, I just completed a modification to the Scout kickstand. It moves the kickstand forward by 1.70 inches (or 43mm) as measured at the tip of the kickstand through its arc. The kickstand angle stock is at about 96 degrees (just slightly forward of center by 6 degrees). With my...

    Whatever you want to call it... Chief, Vintage, Chieftain, Roadmaster owners take a look at yours! Below are pics of @Vryder's kickstand. He and I were going to put the extender on before his road trip.
