Concern

Headlight may not perform as expected

Defect, as DVSA words it

Indian Motorcycle has determined that some motorcycles equipped with halogen headlights may have been assembled using a non-compliant headlight not matching destination market requirements. Certain International models may be equipped with an SAE (North America spec) headlight which is considered non-compliant per ECE standards. The E4 and SAE headlights have different photometric and marking requirements which must be inspected and if necessary replaced with the correct headlight.These headlights have the potential to dazzle other road users if the light is not dipped to the correct side for the market operated in.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Headlamp assembly to be inspected on affected models and where necessary the headlamp will be replaced.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.
