Traveling on Interstate at freeway speeds (65 mph) when instrument cluster lights all lit up, started flashing, motorcycle lost power and all electronics shut off. Fortunately was able to get to side of the interstate. Started bike back up but it kept failing in the same manner. Towed to dealer and they were unable to diagnose so they opened a ticket with Polaris Corporate Engineering. Ultimately, they determined that the issue was the 10 amp circuit breaker that was defective. I found that this was a previously known Safety Issue with Indian, supposedly only impacting built between 2/12/2019 and 7/31/2019. (Indian Safety Bulletin Communication #I-19-05-A). The replaced circuit breaker with updated (red dot non-defective) breaker fixed the problem. In reviewing various Indian motorcycle forums I don't believe this is an isolated problem. Indian has refused to consider this as part of the recall, nor will the cover the cost of the repair. I believe this is a serious safety issue and impacts ALL Indian Motorcycles with the older part number Eaton Circuit breaker. Finally, my motorcycle while 2017 has less than 20K miles on it.
