  • In this video we tackle one of the plagued issues Indian Motorcycles face, the dreaded plastic windshield motor gear. The plastic gear that is in the windshield motor assembly is prone to stripping out after many miles down the road. Mr. Steve Kovacs saw the need in the market and jumped at the opportunity to create a solution for this issue. He fabricated from Billet CNC aluminum a replacement for the weak plastic gear that will give you the peace of mind. If you are interested in purchasing one of these aluminum gears we stock them and also can be purchased directly from Steve Kovacs himself through facebook.

    I’d like to thank Davidson Audio for this detailed video. I just changed my motor gear and it was not as hard as I thought it would be. I’ll be starting the installation of my 4 speaker Davidson audio package tomorrow. Thanks and keep up the good work!

    Thanks Brandon! Your video helped me out tremendously! I finally decided to complete the nut replacement today after having it on hand for almost two months. Why? Been enjoying riding and too hot to sit still in a hot garage. Overall, moderate level repair for the average guy in my opinion.

    How similar is the install on a 19 chieftain? And any word on recommended lubricant?

    Considerably more drag at 60MPH between the Klockworks (which I do have) and stock. Or for that matter any windshield that’s larger than stock.
    I have to wonder if anyone that has NOT changed to a larger Klockworks windshield and had this issue?
    Could explain why Indian didn’t catch this.

    Things are different when removing the gauge cluster Brandon spoke of on the 2020 Indian Roadmaster. Remove 2 screws in the phone storage box. Also, one screw from the left and right upper top speaker area to remove panel referenced at 3:50.

      The 23 and newer bikes have a revised windshield gear that has a brass insert. We still replace them if the customer requests us to

  • @allentraylor5659
    @allentraylor5659 10 місяців тому

    Good part , but could use one finishing -touch.... the shuttle-block has two through-holes for the guide-rods to pass through , to guide the block's upward/downward travel.....
    those holes (4) should Have a little a bevel so the sharp edges of the holes don't bite into the guide-rods....
    ALSO... LUBE THE TWO GUIDE-RODS........

    I bet that would be a real cheap repair if you took it back to the Dealership you spent 30+ thousand dollars at. Oh Yeah!

    • @DavidsonAudio
      @DavidsonAudio  Рік тому

      There are different ways to look at it. It wasn’t until the 2023 year models that Indian corrected the faulty windshield gear. Being a customer with a 2020 model why would I want to go three years of potentially replacing the windshield gear from the dealership when I could replace it once and be done with it? Not to mention scheduling the appointment, down time with the bike being in the shop, etc. like I said we all have our reasoning for modifying and improving our bikes.

      @@DavidsonAudio Excellent how to Video. My point was all this money for the Bike and it has this silly plastic geared motor on it. If you didn't have your tools and talent, had to take it to the Dealer they would bust your wallet several thousand bucks easy to tear apart that whole fairing plus the down time.
