Anyone out there seen touch-up paint in Thunder Black Pearl? Don't see it on the Indian web site. And yes, tipped the bike while detailing it and scarred up the bottom edge of the saddlebag on my '18 Chieftain Limited :(
I just moved to Central Texas from North Carolina and am looking for a shop that will do some work on my scout. I need a dent repaired on the tank and am planning on going for an upgrade across the board. I just need a shop that knows Indians. what i want done is:
repair tank, then paint it...
Has anyone else been seeing a lot of scratching of their challenger? I have a blue limited and it is scratching every where. I have it in the dealer and started a case even their service manger admitted to seeing it everywhere. I had a chieftain before this and it didn't have this issue. I have...
Just wanted to let anyone with a Corbin touring seat or a Corbin seat in general know to put some loctite on the rear attachment bracket bolts. One of the Allen bolts came unthreaded and the only reason it didn’t fall out completely is because it bottomed out on the fender. Which in turn left a...
Good day group. I just noticed since last weekend that I have 2 pin head sized bubbles forming in the pain on the top of my RM trunk. One is right in the middle of the lid dead center between the rack rails, and the other is on the "driver" side just as the center hump starts. Just checking to...
Noticed in the 400 miles I have been riding that there are scratches everywhere on the surfaces. I use high quality cleaners and clean the bike after every ride to ensure I am not grinding in any road grime if I brush against it in the garage. Tops of the saddle bags and the tank where my fat...
i purchased my 2016 Roadmaster new from a dealership in April 2017. I ride year round but keep the bike clean, polished and garaged. While cleaning after a ride yesterday, I noticed blistering of the paint in the lower part of the rear wheel well. Has any else experienced this? Should it be...
I want to hand-paint the round Indian seal on each side of the front of my Chief’s frame — the one that’s cast into the frame. I have a good steady hand and will use at least two colors, probably gold and red, on the raised and recessed areas. What kind of paint (and sealer?) would be best?
So I go out to the garage to check on my bike and spot on the rear fender chipped paint at the tip of the fender! I know I did not back it into anything. It was good when I put the bike up from my last ride. I have caught my 14 year old sitting on my bike a few times. It had been moved to get to...
Anyone got any tips to share, any trade secrets?
I'm just gonna sand it down, 800,400,120,80 then spray paint primer, paint, then clear coat.
I'll try it on a spare helmet first.
I get that some of you aren't big on detailing your bike, but for those of us that enjoy giving our rides some extra attention; Whats everyone using on their DH to protect the matte finish?
Hello folks,
I am trying to find out the color components for mixing "the" color used in the 2017 indian chief classic burgundy metalflake.
I'm an American, but presently living in the Basque country in the north of Spain. I recently negotiated a deal on a 2016 Indian Vintage. The Indian...
Well, it finally happened. I forgot to do my waist belt on my old Beck jacket and the buckle put a nice scratch down to the primer. I've got an Indian Red and I was wondering if anyone has tried the touch up pen from Touch Up Direct here Indian Scout - Indian Red - IND001 | TouchUpDirect
If...
Saw/inspired by the thread and brilliant video by another forum member of making the Indian script pop by painting it.
link - New Painting Method For "Popping Your Script"
However, the glue stencil method didn't work well for me on the convex surface of the air box or maybe I was using too much...
I just brought my "new" 2014 blue Chieftain home the other day, and I'm interested in finding a pinstripe artist in the Central Florida area who can add some paint to my new ride. I'm in Crystal River, and i expect there are few good artists around the area.
Anyone have any referrals that...
I'm certain I read somewhere, on this forum, that the consumer will have the ability to 'custom order' their paint scheme after January. Did anyone else read this or know anything? *(I'm not sure if the paint options were limited to Indian's current catalogue?)
I love the blacked out motor and...
It started 25 December 2016 and today it all came together (mostly) as we are never totally done customizing our rides!:D It should be known that this is a motorcycle I almost sold within the first 6 months of owning it. It was the people on this forum who kept me in the game with their advice...
