The issue
On certain motorcycles, the windshield bracket mounting bolts are not flush with the brackets which could place excessive stress on the bolts causing them to break. Broken mounting bolts could lead to the windshield coming loose and even falling off the bike, potentially striking the rider or otherwise causing the rider to lose control of the motorcycle and crash. Correction: Since Indian Motorcycles is no longer in business, no correction is available.
Description (français)
Sur certaines motocyclettes, les boulons de montage du support du pare-brise ne sont pas noyés dans le support, ce qui pourrait exercer une contrainte excessive sur les boulons et les faire briser. Si les boulons se brisent, il se peut que le pare-brise prenne du jeu ou même se détache de la moto et frappe le conducteur, ce qui risque de lui faire perdre le contrôle et de causer un accident. Correction : Puisque la société Indian Motorcycles a fermé ses portes, aucune correction n'est offerte.
