The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi gents, I jsut picked up my first new bike ever. This does not mean I will be selling any of my GS's but I was looking for a little more comfort on my next long trip. My wife and I are planning on a ride around lake superior. This bike came stock with seat and hand warmers, electriconic cruise control and an electric windshield. The first owner even put the stage 1 kit on it with nicer exhaust and a nice aircleaner. I don't have to do anything to this bike but ride it. Which is a strange situation for me. All my other bikes have required a winters worth of work to get them running. Its a 2016 Indian Roadmaster. The PO traded it in for another 2016 with nav but I use my phone so I don't need nav.

"Where's Bomber737 at?" "He's out in the garage sitting on his new motorcycle waiting for Spring time"... "Where's Bomber737 at?" "Him and his wife are on the new motorcycle out looking for the second biggest ball of twine in the world" ☺ Nice motorcycle 👍
 
You got the MN motorcycle instead of the WI machine.....:o Have a couple buddies riding Polaris. One Indian and one Victory. They both love them.
 
I' confused, If it's a new bike, how did it have a previous owner? Happy for ya'll.
 
I can understand the confusion so let me be more clear. It was purchased late in the summer and rode 2000 miles. Indian then came out with the Roadmaster with Nav, an option either not avaliable at the time or the dealer didnt have any in stock. When they got them in i assume he traded my bike in and got what he wanted. If you ask me a 2000 mile bike is not even broke in and still new.
 
Now I'm not confused, stage 1, exhaust, air cleaner. I'd say better than new. congrats again.
 
Tassles are for strippers not for bikes as far as im concerned. I didnt pay $29000, thats the new new price. Knock 7000 off that and you have the i want this bike gone price. I know its hight but its still less than a comparable HD and ill have 1/3 the maintenance costs. And i dont even have to spend 10 grand on chrome to make it an different
