I've been following every new motorcycle since the dawn of time. the Himalayan 2023, is one of the best looking dual sport motorcycles of the last 40 years. It is what all the other big name bikes should look like, had they not tried to force a new redesign. Plain is beautiful, and everyone knows that. The Himalayan has a 1990's aesthestic, and the bikes from the late 1990's were the best looking motorcycles in history.

Just needs an Italian tune up, lol.

My Sport Chief gets the same error sometimes. After a cylinder misfires it sometimes stops using that cylinder until you restart. The dealership says this is harmless on the engine but it can be annoying to only have 1 cylinder working until you pull over & restart the engine. That said, I've only had to pull over & restart one time. The check engine light is just always on though, which is silly since if anything genuinely bad happens I won't be alerted by the check engine light.

Since you made it home hopefully the issue is easily corrected by the dealer.

Good luck, thank you.

A sudden loss of power in an Indian Chief Dark Horse motorcycle could be caused by several factors: 1. **Fuel System Issues**: - **Fuel Pump Failure**: If the fuel pump isn’t working properly, it can cause a sudden drop in fuel delivery. - **Clogged Fuel Filter**: A clogged filter can restrict fuel flow, leading to power loss. - **Empty Fuel Tank**: Simply running out of fuel. 2. **Electrical Problems**: - **Battery Issues**: A weak or failing battery can cause power loss. - **Loose or Corroded Connections**: Poor connections can disrupt the electrical system. - **Faulty Alternator**: If the alternator fails, the battery may not charge, leading to power loss. 3. **Engine Problems**: - **Sensor Failure**: A faulty sensor (e.g., oxygen sensor, MAP sensor) can lead to improper engine management. - **Ignition System Issues**: Problems with spark plugs or ignition coils can cause misfires and power loss. - **Mechanical Failure**: Issues like a blown head gasket or poor compression can affect engine performance. 4. **Air Intake and Exhaust Issues**: - **Clogged Air Filter**: A restricted air filter can reduce airflow to the engine. - **Exhaust Blockage**: A blockage can cause back pressure and power loss. 5. **ECU or Software Issues**: - **ECU Malfunction**: Problems with the engine control unit (ECU) can affect performance. - **Software Glitches**: Software issues might affect how the bike manages power delivery. 6. **Transmission Problems**: - **Clutch Slippage**: A slipping clutch can cause power loss. - **Gear Issues**: Problems with the transmission can affect power transfer. **Immediate Actions**: - **Check Fuel**: Ensure there is enough fuel in the tank. - **Inspect Battery**: Check for charge and connections. - **Look for Error Codes**: Use a diagnostic tool to check for any error codes in the ECU. For a precise diagnosis, consulting a professional mechanic or authorized service center is recommended.

Hope everything goes well. As always❤

Had this happen a number of times on my Challenger. First incident was riding on highway, loss of power, let bike sit, fired back up codes persisted but power was available again, rode it to dealership. Battery terminals had some corrosion, leading to connection issue leading to voltage issue, leading to code. Also had a TPS sensor replacement for a second occurrence under warranty to deal with any other possible causes. Finally, I would get this diagnostic report and warning after having my bike on trickle charger, and on first start up. After period of time riding code cleared itself. From my experiences the codes all stemmed from voltage issues. I hope this helps! Hope this helps

I’ll be very interested to hear what you find out. At least you got home ok.

I’ve had my Chief do this whenever I missed a shift. The check engine light usually goes away on its own after you start and stop the bike a few times as long as the issue isn’t still there

Bad petrol? Glad you made it back safely!

"Contact your dealer" ... copied & pasted from a Ducati owners manual.

Well that`s a bit of a mystery Paul, and not good enough for a new Indian, should`nt happen to this machine considering how long they`ve been manufactoring!?. Hopfully it`s a one off glitch.

This happened to me yesterday on my Springfield

Hope it turns out to not be anything major! Gorgeous bike and nice channel.

Hi Paul, maybe it's the Lampda sensor! With my Chief Dark Horse, it was this... Unfortunately directly after 5km when picking up the machine 🙈

It will be interesting to find out what caused or is causing the reported misfire?

Great to see you got home Paul. Had a funny feeling it may be dirty fuel or water though I have seen this with the old cdi box which had to be replaced. Hoping it’s not much as I know how much bikes can become almost like family.

Se venisse prodotta questa motocicletta in versione scrambler sarebbe una grande bella idea

You look like my grandfa.....😢He passed away a few years ago.😢

Why have music that prevents you from hearing the motorcycle? I don't get it. I want to hear how the engine performs, not some music track.

Thank you

Simply put Stomer is better way higher corner entry, mid and exit speed The repsol Honda is just faster in a straight line

They both just look weird. Is that even a HD motor or Honda. An outrageous turn from what a sportster is. The Buck Rodgers sportster. Lmao

I took a 2024 Sporty S out the other day. What a beast ! Thinking of picking one up myself fun bike . 🎉

Mt09 2024 please!

Great review. Didn’t see until after I picked one up on Father’s Day but agree with you. Awesome bike just hate how far it leans over on the stand.

Holy cow, holding my breath so long, almost passed out, right decision for today, tomorrow, any day because the butt ugly V-Rod isn't cutting it. Having said that, the Sportster is the greatest bike HD ever built, bring it back.

V rod was the one and only proper bike HD ever made.

Now i have bought the the nt and had a nc..every thing is better on the nt but the nc was smoother in low speed if you only keep it in drive mode..(DCT) the nt has cruise control.heated grips. Android auto.moveing shield..and someone tell the nt have not 'kick down' o boy that wrong they have..i drove in 70 km/h and turn the throttle much and it shift down one step and a keept the throttle open and it kick down one time moore..i almost have a lift of (joke) it goes fast and a overtake is werry fast..

Would it also be worth trying one that dumps there air down also mate, more air directed under your tank for the engine and then a tiny lip on top of screen.

If you know you totally mixed this study up. Why not straighten it up and reintroduce the real differences. Just saying

It’s the helmet… A full face helmet or a jethelmet with a bubble visor rather than sunglasses or goggles is a worlf of difference

I appreciate the video, but this is not accurate at all, Im 160 57kg, I ride an R6 and if I put both feet down I can reach with the tip of my shoes.

I have had some success with an additional aerofoil on top of original screens. And that also works as a vent too. The more you can angle the original back the better in my experience.

Well done!

would this be the same with r1?

Can I suggest to planes? Some bikes has like the low rider ST The idea could be, the one you did before over and this new one under. So wind move up will push the remains of the previous design.

Could u take the benelli trk 702 for a test run. Tell us what u think. Thanks.

Wish you all the best❤

Gday Paul, this will be a fun and frustrating project. My initial thoughts are to take photos of where you sit in conjunction to where the top of the screen sits. You may be sitting a tad high and the air is hitting you almost square on the face. I found when i switched screens on my bike (im 5'7") the stock screen is 6 inches high, changed to a 9 inch screen, wow it made a difference. If you put an air duct in at the bottom the air flow will potentially hit you under the chin, at the moment i think its flowing up and around the front of the tank as well as up,so maybe see if you can adjust the screen down a little? My other suggestion is to maybe add a lip to the top of the screen to direct the air over your head better

Looks very interesting, looking forward to seeing how it works out.

I am 6.4 feet, the 400x is too small for me???

Yeah nothing worse than Buffering I like your video Have you looked into Klock Screens ? I’m wondering if they make one for your bike If not then look closely at the design Shape of a Klock and you’ll see how the wind and turbulence works on all Klock screens I have one on my HD RoadGlide and it works great Anyway Food for Thought Good Luck

Thank you

What you have my beauty is a knife-edge screen top, the air separates at the screen top and causes turbulence. The easiest way to cure that is by having a wavy edged or toothed edge to the top of the screen or by applying a brush edge topping to the screen which reduces the shear separation of the air when it gets to the top of the screen.

This is why HD vented the Batwing. And have lower wind defectors on the forks to try and stop the sucking up of air and heat. Take a look at the Road king one that is flaired to the apes.

All I can say is "best of luck". It's definitely worth a try. I own a Moto Guzzi v85tt and the buffeting was terrible with the OEM screen and two aftermarket screens as well. Finally, I purchased wind deflectors that attach to the front of the fuel tank and installed a tiny fly screen. Lots of wind blast and much less buffeting. Currently I am tempted to purchase a Puig screen with mostly positive reviews. However, twice bitten thrice shy.

Thanks for the video. I have the larger screen and the Indian handlebar bag. Not much buffeting. BTW what handlebars do you have?

Yamaha was able to completely eliminate buffeting with its XV1900 Stratoliner by extending the windshield downwards on the sides of the headlight. The lower ends were aerodynamically curved inward, which cleanly deflected the wind along the tank. In fact, the lower end of the screen is much more important than one would think.
