Getting ready for a ride and headlight wont come on. The high beam indicator light is blinking on and off, driving lights are on and wont turn off. Is there a fuse somewhere? I checked the ones under left side cover, none blown. HELP!!!

Indian made a video on replacing bulbs.

Best done with small hands.

I can change the headlight bulb in a RM/ Chieftain in about 10 minutes. Why would it take anyone an hour?

Because we have big hands. Ya know what they say about guys with big hands...

It is indeed the headlight bulb, have had to change mine out twice. Blinking hi/lo indicator is meant to alert you that your bulb isn't working. You would never know it till the sun went down if you were running alone. As to why it would take an hour to change out - on a Chief you must take the nacelle off the bike to access the bulb. One of the few things about my Vintage that sucks - Dan

You don't have to take it off. It is a tight squeeze to reach it tho

I'm not a big guy at 5'8", 170, and I sure as hell can't get my hand in there. Wish I could, things would be a lot easier - Dan

I believe ya. I contemplated finding a smaller person to assist. I wear XXL. Any bigger hands you need to find help.
