  1. Indian Springfield
    The joy of a pre-owned bike, especially if bought from a dealer. I think it has a Stage 1 kit installed but not sure. It has the Tab exhaust with the quiet baffles and what appears to be an upgraded air filter, but it is round, not oval like the one on the Indian Parts website. The conundrum...
  2. Parts for Sale/Wanted
    Have converted my 2014 chief classic from a 111 to a 116, so I no longer need my Thunder MFG air cleaner and Doebeck EJK EFI controller. Great inexpensive stage 1 mods to increase power to your 111. Both come with all hardware and instructions for 275 USD for both plus shipping
    $275 USD
  3. Indian Scout
    New 2022 Bobber 20. I've put the V&H 3" slash cuts on it, love the sound and look, pretty happy with the performance. But is adding the Indian performance intake and a tune worth it? Seat of the pants worth it? What can I expect performance wise by doing this? Does it make her pull harder...
  4. Indian Dark Horse
    Just got a 2016 chief dark horse was going to get a power commander a s&b breather and most likely a new exhaust Any one think I should spend my first money on different upgrades?
  5. Indian Motorcycle Tech Q & A
    Can a Stage 1 (or maybe more like a Stage 0.5) be done on the cheap for a stock 116? Some of the Stage 1 kits just replace the stock AC filter with the K&N ($70?) and several folks have just knocked out the plugs from stock pipes to open them up (free). I see Stage 1 Calibration Cards here for...
  6. Indian Challenger
    I rode my challenger for about 400 miles before I swapped over to the Indian branded stage 1 exhaust. The bike sounded more aggressive, but I didn't really notice any sort of increase in throttle response or acceleration. When I took my bike in for its 500 mile service, I had the dealer install...
  7. Indian Challenger
    I snagged the Indian Stage 1 Slip Ons for my Base 2021 Challenger, however, I'm having a hard time locating the website to download the updated calibration. What am I missing?
  8. Indian Motorcycle General Discussion
    Just got to Germany and my 2018 Roadmaster will be here shortly. It has cams and stage 1 exhaust and I dont believe I will pass the 95db inspection requirement. Anyone have any luck finding a quieter baffle insert tip or any other trick to pass inspection? Yes, quite sounds wrong but I will go...

    I just did the Stage 1 pipes and it sounds great. Not too loud when cruising, but has a nice roar when you get on the throttle. Considering the Performance Air Cleaner, but have a little concern about how loud it will be. I'm interested in more performance not volume (California has a lot of...
  10. Thunder Stroke 111 Guides & How-To's
    Looking at the VE Correction Table, I am wondering how to get into higher load to populate those cells. Looking at the VE Compare Table, I am wondering if more datalogging is required to fine tune. Input is welcome.
  11. Indian Motorcycle General Discussion
    We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists, right? My wife tells me that I'm one of a kind, but sometimes I'm not sure if she's saying that as a compliment. But am I alone in the desire to ride a motorcycle that has a reasonably quiet exhaust note? I've been riding since 1971...
  12. Indian Motorcycle Tech Q & A
    As almost everyone does, since I've gotten my bike (2015 Indian Chief Vintage) I've made several updates and improvements. Freedom Performance True Duals, Wimmer high flow air cleaner, Power Commander 5 (PCV), and, most recently, 60mm throttle body. After putting on the new throttle body my...
  13. Indian Scout Sixty
    I was wondering the difference between the gas mileage on your Indian 60 before and after a stage 1 and a flash not a dyno. I love getting over 50 mpg and I read that the stage 1 power if felt in the higher RPM ranges. I rarely hit those high rpm's in normal riding. Curious to know the...
  14. Indian Scout Sixty
    I bought a 2017 Indian Scout in Feb. I now have 500 miles on my bike. I have considered a stage one kit but with the crack down and tight restrictions in California I am finding it difficult. After Vance Hines was fined 500,000. for sale of restricted exhausts in California most other companies...
  15. Indian Roadmaster
    Looking for advice from owners who have replaced the stock exhaust with aftermarket pipes, air filter and/or fuel commanders. Stage 1 doesn't seem loud enough, Bassani looks great, but the price is ridiculous ! I've heard Vance and Hines, they sounded pretty good, but just not sure yet. I'm...
  16. Indian Dark Horse
    Howdy. So, to start I'm more tech inclined that auto, but learning. That being said, Im looking for feedback concerning upgrade order of operations. Next spring I'm going to do a stage one one my '17 Chief DH. Don't yet know if I'll go beyond that, or if so, when. So, my question. I've had...

  18. Indian Scout Performance & Suspension
    I actually like the tone and the "volume" of the Indian Stage 1 slip-ons. I don't love the co$$$t. Suggestion as to an aftermarket slip-on that would be similar in dB level? I'm studying the options that folks have chosen, but thought I'd pose the question. Please include whether your pipes...
