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) or the GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING (GAWR) for your motorcycle.
- Adjust ride height as needed. See Shock Preload Adjustment.
