Indian Motorcycle gear position switch contacts may oxidize, causing the gear position display to inaccurately show that the motorcycle is in neutral when it is actually in gear.
The short version
Indian Motorcycle Company reported a problem with the electrical system. Here is what owners need to know.
The gear position switch contacts may oxidize, causing the gear position display to inaccurately show that the motorcycle is in neutral when it is actually in gear.
If the transmission is not in neutral when the motorcycle is started, the motorcycle may move unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.
Take it to a dealer — they will replace the switch free of charge.
