- The Indian Challenger War Bonnet can be installed on all Chieftain models. The connection is ready somewhere behind the front LED light.
I have listed all the parts needed. During the installation I found the screws will need to have bigger holes and to work around this, you can use the old screws from the old Headdress or make the fender holes wider.
Also, you will need to have another hole to run the cable from outside to inside the fender.
Nice install, I did notice that you didn't seal the hole you made or around the screws underneath the fender. Reduce the risk of rust.
Yes o didn’t because fender had some scratches and it was pained after that. But you’re right. If I wasn’t plant to paint it I would seal the holes for sure
I ordered the exact Challenger Headdress and it came with the L-R headdress badges.
Nice. It will look great for sure.
Glad you made this video, been thinking of doing this swap. Curious on brand of your front turn signal lenses.
They’re the stock lenses but I used spray.
Awesome video! Just oreder a new cheiftain this year. Always wondered if this was possible.
Question: the plug that works for that, does it come on the bike already or is it a separate wireing harness?
The plug is already there. It’s labeled with war bonnet on it so all good. Even the dealership didn’t know that when I told them it’s plug and play.
I would NEVER trust crazy glue..........unless you just want to bond your fingers together. =-} I would use JB Weld instead!
It’s all about your comfort level. I had a great success with crazy glue plus the clip themselves have their own 3M adhesive. But of course JB Weld does a great job too.
Very cool!!!
Thanks, man, I intended to put Challenger Warbonnet on my Springfield.
I have two questions:
1) Is the connector of common Warbonnet equal to Challenger onde?
2) Mine is a CLASSIC Springfield. Does the shape of the fender (round) interfere if I put a DARK HORSE Challenger one?
I like it with out the indian faces on the side I didn't know that was separate,,, ima put mines on without it
Great video only one little critique. Dude the motion sickness. 🤢 I might just have to get one of these for my bike
I know you drilled a hole for the wire. Did you have to drill any other holes ? Ie the mounting holes of the original war bonnet line up with the challenger war bonnet. I know you said to use original screws from old bonnet.
Can I add this to my chief bobber ?
Is the Indian logo a sticker that goes on the headdress piece? I’m wondering how durable it is in the long run compared to the other headdress you had installed.
Love that light. Quick question where did you find the smoked lens for your front turn signals?
I used spray. There is no way to get smoked lens for these light because and as you know Indian made the light built in with the lenses
@@Cometocanadabut ok I got cha. I know well I guess I'll do that. I was hoping not to have to but that's the way it is. Thx for replying. Stay safe up there in the great white north.
Bonjour
En France, ils vous vendent le Challenger mais cette coiffe n'est pas branchée !!! Je regarde votre vidéo avec grand intérêt, merci !
Il va falloir que je démonte mon garde boue pour voir si c'est une fausse coiffe ou si les branchements peuvent être faits. Ensuite il me restera à trouver le câble adéquat !
Nice video mate. Just one question. I pulled my headlight assembly and tried to locate the war bonnet cable. I could find a 2 pin connector insulated with other harness but no label. The connector has named as PED A B. Does this make any sense?
There is no other cable should be there. It's 2 pin yes. What year is your bike?
Is this also possible for the 2020 Indian scout bobber twenty?
Its all about wiring. I don't think Indian Scout has the factory wiring ready for this install unless you do it yourself and find a way to feed the light with power
Did you have to buy everything separate or the dealer sell them as a kit?
Everything separate. But the dealer should know what you need
@@Cometocanadabut they told me it comes with everything and it was like $220
Latino Biker that should be fine too as long as they know it comes with everything you need. My dealer even didn’t know it fits my bike until I told them. I don’t even know it’s there after I install it 😁
@@Cometocanadabut they didnt know either here lmao rhats why im a little skeptical about it haha
Latino Biker it depends what is your priority is. It’s for the looks and it doesn’t really do anything else. I can’t even see it while I am riding. And when I am not riding the bike is turned off 😁
It’s cool but not sure about having wires that close to a spinning wheel.
There is a lot of room to run more than one wires. I was thinking the same way but nothing to worry about.
RealBox I’m not saying there’s no room I’m saying if something happens and that gets wrapped up in your wheel you can kiss your fender good bye or worse go down.
William Watkins it’s already installed on the Indian challenger the same way. Even one in a million if it happened, it won’t go the same way as you think. Remind me with final destination movie. It’s a very thin wire and worst-case scenario the wire will cut.
RealBox I’m just saying I’m a mechanic and I’ve seen a lot of shit “it’s not supposed to be like that” moments lol.
William Watkins I respect you are a mechanic. But I didn't invent it. It's factory installed on Indian challenger 2020. Wire under the fender no problem. And also on previous Indian models and people have tons of miles without any issues.
Thank you! What highway pegs do you have?
Longhorn from Kuryakyn

Want to sell the stock war bonnet?
If you want.
@@Cometocanadabut how much?
