Summary:
Used 1949 Indian Scout 1,000 miles
Location:
Fort Worth, TX
Description:
This might be the ONLY existing handmade Indian motorcycle from original Indian parts and bikes. I have a friend who is a motorcycle mechanic and an Indian Motorcycle enthusiast for the last 40 years. He has built this motorcycle from the ground up with parts that were available from the Indian factory parts bins in 1949. He says that this could have been the bike that would have saved the Indian Motorcycle company. With the introduction of the Warrior, Arrow vertical line the Indian motorcycle Co. abandoned their loyal customer base and contributed to the demise of the company in 1953. Indians designers could have continued the magic they started in 1928 with the 101 by creating an updated Scout that would have complimented the Chief and given Indian buyers what they really wanted a lighter more nimble Scout that retained all the styling cues of the earlier models. This custom bike is what Indian could have produced. This machine weighs 395 lb. Every component in it was available from the Indian factory parts bins in 1949. Build components include, Arrow frame with stronger lightweight tubing, Junior Scout fork, Scout 45 front brake, Junior Scout tanks, 741 power plant board to 37 cubic inches, lightweight parts sourced from Indian models dating back to the twenties, Sam Pierce engine mounting plates and generator drive housing. Messenger seat. If you were given the choice between a vertical 440cc scout or this 37 Cubic-in. evolutionary Scout which one would you choose? This bike starts right up runs perfectly has a Cleant title. Still available at ListedBuy!
