The drive pulley is the critical component connecting your Indian V-Twin's engine power to the final belt drive, translating torque into raw forward motion. Over time, road debris, improper belt tension, and simple mileage can wear down the teeth of your existing pulley, leading to damaging belt slippage, loud howling noises, or premature belt failure.
Restore your motorcycle's legendary performance and eliminate costly drivetrain wear with a genuine Indian motorcycle drive pulley from Witchdoctors.com. Engineered by Polaris to the exact specifications of your Indian Chief, Chieftain, Scout, or Challenger, this OEM pulley guarantees flawless tooth engagement, perfect alignment, and the reliable power transfer you demand.
Choosing the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) drive pulley ensures that every aspect of the component is optimized for your motorcycle's specific belt and torque output.

While specific pulley applications (front or rear, tooth count) vary, this family of OEM drive pulleys is crucial across the modern Indian lineup. Always confirm the exact Polaris part number required for your specific model year. Check the fitment tab on our website to verify you make model and year fitment before ordering
(This part is essential for models utilizing a final belt drive system. Consult your vehicle's parts diagram or contact us to verify fitment for your specific VIN.)
Q: Should I replace the belt when replacing the Indian motorcycle drive pulley?
A: Yes, absolutely. If the pulley is worn enough to require replacement, it has likely accelerated wear on your final drive belt. Indian Motorcycle often recommends replacing both the belt and both pulleys as a set, especially if the belt has more than 5,000 miles of service at the time of damage.
Q: What are the signs my drive pulley is failing or worn?
A: The most common indicators include:
Q: Is there a difference between the front drive pulley and the rear pulley?
A: Yes. The front drive pulley (attached to the transmission output shaft) is typically smaller and has fewer teeth. The rear pulley (attached to the wheel) is much larger. They are engineered as a pair to provide the factory gear ratio. You must select the correct part based on its location.
Q: Why choose OEM over aftermarket pulleys?
A: OEM pulleys ensure the metal composition and tooth geometry are perfectly matched to Indian's belts and engine harmonics. Aftermarket pulleys may use softer metal or slightly incorrect tolerances, which can lead to rapid belt wear and compromise drivetrain integrity.
Don't wait for a breakdown to replace worn drivetrain components. Maintain the exceptional reliability of your machine with the quality of an OEM replacement.
