Because INDIAN MOTORCYCLE
cannot test and make specific recommendations concerning every accessory
or combination of accessories
sold, the operator is responsible for determining that
the motorcycle can be safely operated with any accessories or additional
weight. Use the following guidelines when choosing
and installing accessories:
- Do not install accessories
that impair operator visibility or the stability, handling or operation
of the motorcycle. Before
installing an accessory, be sure that it does
not:
- reduce ground clearance
when the motorcycle is either leaned or in a vertical position;
- limit suspension
or steering travel or your ability to operate controls;
- displace you from
your normal riding position;
- obscure lights or
reflectors.
- Bulky, heavy or large
accessories can cause instability (due to the lifting or buffeting
effects of wind) and loss of control.
- Do not install electrical
accessories that exceed the capacity of the motorcycle’s electrical
system. Never install higher
wattage light bulbs than those supplied as
original equipment. An electrical failure could result and cause hazardous
loss
of engine power or lights, or damage to the
electrical system.
- Use only genuine
INDIAN MOTORCYCLE accessories designed for your model.
- Do not exceed the
gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) for your motorcycle.
- Adjust ride height
as needed. See Shock
Preload Adjustment.
