Indian Motorcycle: A Missed Opportunity? Pressure Sensor Install
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
💭 Odd.. Indian Motorcycle shipped 2022+ Indian Chief with TPMS capable wheels. Shipped with a way to natively pair TPMS sensors. However, no TPMS sensors are available for sale. What gives? I show Folks how to do this at home as dealers more than likely won't do this.

I just had the sensors paired at the dealer. I went with the new OEM version 2208712 (retail 175 each and come with screw) and they paired them while in the bag and sitting on the seat. I marked them and will have dealer install with new tires soon. FYI, a new RC 4" software was released. One of the things it does is remove TPMS readings with no sensors installed. I just had the RC changed as it was defective. I'm skiddish to upgrade the software. The tech at the dealer was very surprised that this worked. Thanks Brandon! :)

Someone else mentioned the update removing the sensor readings. I haven’t updated mine yet either. 😅 Also, thanks for the note and I’m glad it worked for you! Part #2208712 are the newer sensors so good to know those worked out as well. 🤙🏾
That screw is $35, btw. 🌚

WOW!!
When I bought my 2022 Indian Chief Darkhorse motorcycle I couldn't get the sensors. The dealer didn't have them in stock and had never installed them because on the bigger Indian motorcycles they come as standard equipment. After 6 months I was able to get them from the dealer and have them installed. I didn't wait until I needed new tires. Definitely a mistake. It was very costly to have them installed. The installment cost is a discouragement to get them. However, once you have them, well, it is great, although they are not completely accurate, just as in the cars. These sensors should be standard on any Indian motorcycle that comes equipped with Ride Command.

Maybe cost was a reason to not do it from factory. No idea but definitely a pricey install. I do enjoy the feature.
I actually put new tires on my 2022 cheiftan base model and the dealer was able to add the tpms one dealer however did tell me it couldn't be done but it works fine

Brandon, I'm sure that you get a whole lot of people wanting you to work on their Indian motorcycles.

For sure within my small local groups. Once one person knows, everyone does.
That is wild that they don't all come equipped.

Super odd tbh.
Can you swap the Ride Command and analog speedometers? I want to see if the analog speedo will work on my RC bike.

I saw this on the new pushed software update (July 2024) for the 4 inch ride command -Removed TPMS readings on bikes with no TPMS sensors installed I wonder if Polaris/ Indian did this in response to your video. 🤔

Wow. I’d be hella upset if I updated my ride command and that reading was no longer there. I’ll have to try it and see but maybe I can back up the file somehow first.
They did the same on the 2025 scouts I just bought a 101 scout an there is no reading for it on the ride command but has the option for it ....I wonder if I could do this to mine?

You can, but question is if the wheels have the slot for it.

I really wish they had included those from the factory on the Sport Chief. A couple of questions for you: Do you have any experience with the aftermarket tire pressure sensors And what's the brand and model of your gas cap?

For the cost of the entire set up. Id just go without. I can tell from the feel when the tire psi is low. But thanks for sharing

Now how hard(expensive) is it to add ride command to a base chief ?
