This is a different video than what we normally do. We bought our bike, bare-boned, on Dec 23rd, 2021. In the 5 months we have owned her, we added these accessories to make our bike as comfortable as possible for my wife, Danyelle, and I to enjoy. Are we done? Absolutely not! But this is what we've done so far. Enjoy!

The best so far exhaust sound is from Freedomperfomance exhaust.

I've only had this one type of exhaust. I've had friends tell me how great Sawicki is, Rhineharts are, and Toce Performance. I guess it really comes down to personal preference.

I whole heartedly agree. I LOVED my Cross Roads. Unfortunately, I had to trade it in for the Challenger. It was a good decision. As good as my Victory was, the Challenger is that much better.

The big difference between the Goldwing and my Indian Challenger is the V-Twin Engine. I can't live without that rumble. It's so visceral.

It's a full touring challenger now. The Indian pursuit is essentially the same motorcycle, except it comes with all those upgrades but different badging and paint schemes, the electronic fox shock, heated seat, heated hand grips are standard on the limited models.

@ridingwiththewhitleys3715
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715 2 года назад
The Roadmaster was going to be the bike I was going to buy before the Challenger came out. Once I test rode the Challenger, it was over. If I wasn't so excited to get the Challenger, I would have waited until the Pursuit came out and got that. It would have saved me a butt load of money.

You were gonna say why you left the Cat in on your exhaust?....With that Vegas heat i would have put on the CAT delete from Tab...
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715 2 года назад
Yes. The reason why I didn't put the cat delete on is because Sin City Indian said that they heard a Challenger overheated due to replacing that part, so they will no longer change it out. The frustrating part is that the Indian dealership in San Diego said they have no problem changing it out. I believe all Indian dealerships should do the same services. We shouldn't have to go to a different state to get what we want.

A great video. Now I know a bit more about why you like the Challenger. Now I have a question. Your trunk. It came with the chrome rear brake light garnish. Not black. Same with my trunk when I ordered it. I had to go back to the dealer. Get the corporate number for Indian. And call them about that. All trunks ordered separately for a bike will always come with chrome. No matter the paint color. You would have to call them. Because you can’t order the part online. And of course I forgot the part number. This will help you get the garnish in black.
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715 2 года назад
Yeah, I found that out as well. That was going to be the 2nd part of my video. About how Indian doesn't quite do enough to support the Challenger. Not only does the trunk come in chrome only, but that is the same for the armrests. At least when I got them. It took 4 months to get our lowers and it took 3 weeks to get the bike back after the flash for the new air intake and pipes failed. If Harley makes a Road Glide with a liquid cooled engine and 125hp; Indian will be in trouble. In my humble opinion.

Not in Vegas. Very little humidity. It takes a lot for me not to enjoy any ride. That being said, the only ride I dread doing is the ride in high wind. Other than that, they're all good.

@johnkirchner8756 2 года назад
Would you mind discussing how much difference the hard lowers made and if you feel they are a must have or not? Also, any negatives? Do they get in your way at all when riding… does your foot ever hit it when going for the rear brake, for example? Thanks for any insights you can provide.
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715 2 года назад
The hard lowers haven't made too much of a difference so far due to the fact that I keep the vents open all the time during these summer months. I will have a better idea during the winter. There is absolutely no hinderance of room. They don't get in the way of anything when it comes to foot room. You really don't notice they're there. I have plenty of room to put my feet anywhere as I did before I got them. If you get them with the storage, just know the doors are a bit temperamental. They tend to stick a little so you have to push them a 2nd time for them to open. For me, I got them to finish out the look of the bike, having the trunk and all. As "a must have".... I absolutely recommend them. I had to have them to finish the look of the bike. Having the passing lights on them now, they look really nice. For functionality, I am sure they will make a big difference in wind control during the winter months. For me, yes... they are a must have.

I'm 5'11", but I have a short torso I've been told. 32" in seam. The 11" is perfect for me. I know some people don't like the way it looks, all tall and all, but I'm not really in it for the looks. I like to be comfortable.

You know, you're probably right. Then in that case, he is right. Other than the electronic suspension, not much difference. Well, the pricing would be different. It cost way more to make mine into a pursuit than it would have if I just bought a pursuit. Which is what I would have done if they were available at the time I bought mine.

@ridingwiththewhitleys3715
@ridingwiththewhitleys3715 Год назад
I can see you point of view. However, I didn't turn it into a Goldwing. Far from. A Goldwing is more a refined, less visceral kind of ride. I turned mine into a more comfortable beast of a machine. The power, the suspension, the technology, along with the sound of thunder and the rumble of a mud slide. It's more than the hum of Goldwing.
