The real Indian Chiefs were great bikes. Flat head engines, hand shift(only 3 speeds), wonderful torque, great pulling power. They were better than the Harleys but never made the transition to over head valve engines. I had the chance to buy a 1954 Indian Chief in 1964, it had only 20,000 miles on it, saddle bags, full dress, for $150.00(that’s correct one hundred fifty dollars)and I turned it down because I had enough parts on hand to build an Indian Chief(and I did). I have been kicking myself every since for not buying that bike.

I am told this photo of my mother, c. 1937, is with an Indian Motorcycle.
