History And Condition   This is a great appearing and running motorcycle, that starts easily and runs out great - just check out the video.
    We have an Indian Riders Instruction Book that goes with the Motorcycle. It may be reproduction but appears to be original, a 1951 Edition. While most of this bike is believed to be original, reproduction parts that I am aware of are the battery holder, crash guards, (front guards and right side rear guard are included in the sale), air cleaner, fender tips and side car fender and light. Urethane paint was used in restoration - no powder coating. Bike was ridden today (6/23/2008), starts easily, leaks minimal amount of oil. The chrome on wheels looks excellent but needs cleaned. Coker tires look new - have about 1,000 miles on them. We have receipts. Other chrome all appears to be replated - not perfect but pretty nice condition. We have receipts. Right hand brake lever has a spot on the inside of the lever where the chrome has peeled off - the only significant flaw I see in the chrome items. Lower end of engine was rebuilt by Wichita's Truett and Osborn Cycle Shop. We have receipts. We have a thick folder of receipts for the motorcycle and restoration work. Most of them are dated 1998 through 2001 so we assume that is when the restoration process took place. We have not totaled these receipts but we were told they totaled about $29,000.00. Engine # is CDG 3259. Frame # is 346884.

Its Flaws.  The only flaw that I noticed in the paint was a very small blister on the paint on the side car, in front of the windshield.  I took a photo of this area but it is difficult to see in person and therefore does not show very well in the photo.  Other minor flaws are noted in the Condition statement above.

Odometer Reading.  This vehicle is sold as mileage exempt due to being more than 10 years old. However, we were told by the previous owner/builder that the Odometer broke at 500 miles after the restoration was completed and was replaced with new unit. Correct mileage therefore is 1,062 since restoration.

The Video.  Crank up the volume and smile at our amateur video - we're just trying to give you a sense of what this classic Indian sounds like and how it looks going down the highway. Sorry about all the extra noise in the video, its not edited so you see and hear everything as it occured. We had a lot of wind noise, a cell phone ringing and then a military airplane making a landing nearby at the end of the video. And, If the video sounds choppy on your computer, (its not the bike - it runs great) pause the video and give it some time to download or play it the second time and it should be smooth.
