Hey all-
Yesterday I headed 50 miles north to my Indian Dealer to have them fix an oil leak coming from the Oil Adapter assembly. (Under warranty)
As I pulled off the interstate and stopped, I realized that my gear indicator showed dashed lines, and then the bike shut down. I found neutral mechanically, however, it wouldn't start. I ended up mashing the ignition several times and it did finally start. I made it down the road to the dealer and parked it in neutral. They asked me to drive it into the service bay, so I made sure I was in neutral, but the bike wouldn't start. I ended up raising the kick stand, and was able to start the bike in first, holding onto the clutch.
Turns out even though I had the recall done, the ECM needed to be reflashed. After they did that, and fixed my oil leak, it has been running fine ever since, which was only 50 miles back home.
I did some searching but didn't see anything about this, so I wanted it to be a resource for anyone else in a similar situation.
