INDIAN MOTORCYCLE Warranty Policy

LIMITED WARRANTY

INDIAN MOTORCYCLE, 2100 Highway 55, Medina, Minnesota 55340 (INDIAN MOTORCYCLE) gives a LIMITED WARRANTY on all components of your INDIAN MOTORCYCLE against defects in material or workmanship. This warranty covers parts and labor charges for repair or replacement of defective parts and begins on the date of purchase by the original retail purchaser. This warranty is transferable to another owner during the warranty period through an authorized INDIAN MOTORCYCLE dealer, but any such transfer will not extend the original term of the warranty.
This warranty will be in effect for a period of:
TWENTY-FOUR (24) MONTHS for privately used motorcycles.
SIX (6) MONTHS for commercially used motorcycles or motorcycles that at any point during the warranty period were the subject of commercial rent.
The product is used commercially when it is used in connection with any work or employment that generates income, or is licensed for a commercial purpose during any part of the warranty period.
The duration of this warranty may vary in your jurisdiction based upon local laws and regulations.

REGISTRATION

At the time of sale, the Warranty Registration Form must be completed by your dealer and submitted to INDIAN MOTORCYCLE within ten days of purchase. Upon receipt of this registration, INDIAN MOTORCYCLE will record the registration for warranty. No verification of registration will be sent to the purchaser as the copy of the Warranty Registration Form will be your proof of warranty coverage. If you have not signed the original registration and received the customer copy, please contact your dealer immediately. NO WARRANTY COVERAGE WILL BE ALLOWED UNLESS YOUR MOTORCYCLE IS REGISTERED WITH INDIAN MOTORCYCLE. Initial dealer preparation and set-up of your motorcycle is very important in ensuring trouble-free operation. Purchasing a vehicle in the crate or without proper dealer set-up will void your warranty coverage.
