WAITING 4 MONTHS FOR DEALERS OF INDIAN TO "GET PARTS FROM INDIAN" - STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTICE.. NOTIFIED INDIAN PERSONEL IN GILROY, NO CALL BACK YET. TS

THIS MOTORCYCE IS ADVERTISED TO HAVE A SEAT HEIGHT OF 24.5" IT HAS ADJUSTABLE SHOCK ABSORBERS AND THE RIDE HEIGHT CAN BE VARIED A FEW INCHES HIGHER. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN YOU ARE RIDING THE BIKE AND TURN RIGHT THE LEAN OF THE MOTORCYCLE WILL CAUSE THE OPERATORS RIGHT HAND SIDE FLOORBOARD REAR SUPPORT BRAKET TO SCRAPE THE GROUND. THIS IS THE LOCATION OF THE FOOT PEDAL CONTROL FOR THE REAR BRAKE. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS WHERE THE BRAKET WOULD CATCH ON AN RREGULARITY IN THE PAVEMENT CAUSING THE BIKE TO JUMP AND ALMOST THROWING ME OFF. I COMPLAINED ABOUT IT AT THE FIRST AND SECOND SERVICE OF THE BIKE AND THE DEALER SIMPLY SET THE RIDE HEIGHT TO A HIGHER POSITION, THE BRACKET STILL. I HAVE HEARD THAT ONE RIDER WAS THROWN FROM HIS MOTORCYCLE AT 65 MPH BECAUSE OF THIS AND HE WON A LAWSUIT...
