  1. Indian Roadmaster
    OK. Which one of you guys snuck into my garage last year and changed my rear tire or messed up my odo? On Friday, I am changing my rear tire for the second time on my bike with an unbelievable amount of mileage. Here is the story. When the bike was new in 2017, I rode it from Montreal to...

    Weve all seen them. Most are tired of seeing them. You know the ones. Tires, Type AND Viscosity of Oil......etc erc etc. Why not have these just in a repair and maintenance section THAT DIES NOT APPEAR on recent post and/or popular post. Everyone will know where they are so it solves the poor...

    Hey all Does anyone have a good resource for recommended tire pressures by tire/bike? I recently purchased a set of Dunlop American Elite WW Tires. The tires indicates the max load can be carried at 41 psi and the rear at 42 psi but I noticed that the dealer did not inflate the tires to...

    About to renew tires (currently MC2) on my Scout and considering Cruisetec's. Only possible concern that they are not made in Europe but Brazil. RedHorse post very helpful but would welcome any comment on tires coming out of Brazil.

    The OEM tires on my Roadmaster aren't long for this world. So I started shopping. I'm sticking with the stock sizes and I like the Dunlops. But the Elite 3 tires have a new brother, the Dunlop Elite 4 models. 130/90B16 Bias for the front and 180/60R16 Radial for the rear. Shopping with Google...
  6. Indian Scout
    so i got my 2018 scout bobber about 2.5months ago and im over 10,000km already. My rear tire from the dealer is worn right down to the wear indicators. Ive found to my surprise im riding this scout like its a touring bike but hey its awesome. 10,000k seems like low mileage to wear out a rear...
  7. Indian Scout Sixty
    This has been discussed, but as I came from sport bikes my main concern is grip over longevity. Which one of these tires will be better for me: Michelin commander 2 or Metzler me888?
  8. Indian Motorcycle Tech Q & A
    Looking for some aftermarket tires for the '16 Scout. The stock tires doesn't really inspire confidence when accelerating/decelerating on highway exit ramps on wet roads during packed rush hours. Even while riding with due caution, the rear wheel will slide when little acceleration is applied...
  9. Indian Springfield
    Searched around our model forum and am not seeing any tire recommendation threads here. (There are plenty on other models, like Roadmaster Roadmaster Tire Replacement ) I have 10,000 miles on my E3 and am looking for replacement before next summer I wanted Commander IIs. Had on my Scout...
  10. Indian Motorcycle Tech Q & A
    Just wondering what everyone else's experience with a new Indian has been. The tires on my two-week-old Classic seems to be losing 2-4 pounds of pressure every day, over the course of very normal riding for 30-60 miles a day so far. I'm checking them consistently -- cold and unridden, in the...

  15. Indian Scout Sixty
    So, I'm going to be pulling the trigger on purchasing a new 2017 Scout Sixty in about 2 weeks. I've researched the bike and, short of a catastrophic test ride, I will have a new bike by early May. There is one thing that I'm hoping the group can provide some clarity on. Engine Breaking. A...
  16. Indian Scout Sixty
    I used to do this on my car when I owned one. Here is some information on why it's better than normal air. Thoughts? Worth it on a 2 wheel vehicle?
  17. Indian Scout
    I love my Scout. I love my Scout and I'm a stock kind of guy. 15 bikes in and I've never modified anything on any of them (not counting tires). But, after a couple road trips and some rough commuting in the city, I've started to think about an old quote people say about living in Seattle...

    Decisions, decisions... I have 24,000 KM on my Vintage and am planning an 8,000 KM trip in June. The tires surprisingly still appear to have a lot of tread life left on them. I'm trying to make the decision on whether to go ahead and change them now or wait till after the trip. I'm pretty...
