    Do you think mirror extenders would give you sufficient swivel to get the mirrors to stay in the right place? I had some installed simply because I could not see past my own shoulders. Alternatively, what about bar-end mirrors?

    Set the pin immediatly. My 23 cheiftain DH key stopped working twice. Both times I got a new key under warrentee but without that Code I would have been majorly stranded twice. Dealer wrote my master code in my handbook and I switched it before I left the dealership. If you think you are the kinda person that never forgets their key so you don't need to know it. know that keys can fail.

    Yep, the PIN is needed. Glad I have a spare key, but I think I know my Harley's PIN too. I like having keyless ignition - the key just stays in my pocket all day. Follow-up question: Does the Indian have an on-screen "low battery" alert? My Harley warns me when the key fob battery gets low, so I know to change it ASAP to prevent needing the PIN.

    Good video. Love the color of your Indian. And your garage is set up very nicely. I bought my first Indian from the Dulles dealership. My understanding on my Indians is that there is a Master Pin and a User Pin. The dealer is supposed to write the master pin in the owner's manual. When I bought one of mine used I did not know the user pin or master pin. The other I bought used came with the Owners Manual and had the Master Pin in it. I received some "fake news" that supposedly the Master Pin would be either written under the seat or around the fuse box or something. I found it nowhere on the bike. Entering the PIN on my Super Chief Limited with the Ride Command is simple, just like yours. Entering the PIN on my Springfield (no Ride Command) is a royal pain and I would not rely on it. I find it very odd to do it and it takes me repeated attempts to get it to go through.

    • @TechNickRides
      @TechNickRides Місяць тому

      Thank you for the compliments 🙂👍 I try to stage my garage to look a little organized and presentable on camera at least lol. Trust me it can get messy sometimes 😂 Hoping to do some more maintenance on the bikes later this winter. I’ve also read about the master PIN too and originally asked them about it they said they could at least read the existing user PIN for me. Unfortunately the bike didn’t come with a manual (which I was really surprised). The service folks up at Dulles were nice to work with too 🙂🏍️👍

    • @RamblinManMoto
      @RamblinManMoto Місяць тому

      @@TechNickRides Good stuff. Odd about the master pin. I had to take mine to the dealer and they told me, if I recall correctly, they could only connect it to their device and tell me the Master Pin, and from there I would be able to reset the user pin. Surprised they could not tell you the Master Pin but maybe I misunderstood something. I know that I left the dealership with the Master Pin and I set my own user pin. Good to know the service folks in Dulles are as good as the sales staff. I haven't used them yet but may do so down the road.
