The 2014 Indian Roadmaster has 3 recalls, the most serious being two separate fire risks: a fuel rail that can contact nearby components and leak fuel, and an exhaust system that can reach dangerously high temperatures during an engine misfire.
The fuel rail issue puts raw gasoline near hot engine components, raising the risk of ignition. The exhaust temperature problem occurs when unburned fuel passes through the exhaust during a misfire, overheating the system to the point where surrounding materials can ignite. There is also an electrical concern involving the gear position switch, whose contacts can oxidize and cause the display to incorrectly show neutral when the bike is actually in gear. If a rider starts the motorcycle believing it is in neutral, the bike can lurch forward unexpectedly, creating a crash risk for the rider and anyone nearby.
