The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has just issued a recall for 2022’s Bobber, Bobber Dark Horse, and Dark Horse models; apparently, four bikes don’t have their belt guard reflectors, and this doesn’t comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, “Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment” (via Motorsport Newswire).
Naturally, any bike in need of attending dealerships for reparation will get a new belt guard reflector free of charge. Here’s the list of affected bikes below, according to the release:
| MAKE | MODEL | MODEL YEAR(S) |
| INDIAN | CHIEF BOBBER | 2022 |
| INDIAN | CHIEF BOBBER DARK HORSE | 2022 |
| INDIAN | CHIEF DARK HORSE | 2022 |
