NHTSA Service Bulletin 10207769: Indian Motorcycle Indian Motorcycle
Official manufacturer communication context for model years not specified Indian Motorcycle Indian Motorcycle, with affected products, buyer checks and links into Carchieve recall, problem and VIN research.
Reviewed June 2026 from NHTSA manufacturer communication and service bulletin records. Carchieve is independent and not affiliated with any vehicle manufacturer or government agency.
We have relocated the antenna on the 2022 Indian Roadmaster so it mounts with the trunk. So if a customer is going to ride without the trunk, and wants to listen to AM/FM without a phone; there is an Accy Kit P/N 2889839 that relocates the antenna to the old position. This is an option and not something covered under warranty. This could be an easy accessory upsell at time of sale.
What this bulletin may mean before buying

Before you buy, compare this communication with official recall campaigns, model-level owner complaint patterns, and the exact vehicle’s VIN-decoded specifications. A bulletin can help you ask a seller or dealer sharper questions about software updates, known repairs, warranty extensions and service history.
