Overview

 

This 1913 Indian motorcycle is a basic survivor. This Indian Twin Cylinder, single speed, 1000 cc 7.5 hp, was the first year offering of a “standard” compliment of items from the factory instead of a build as you order it program. The only standard item missing would be the luggage rack and leather tool box.

This motorcycle is a basic born-at-the-factory machine that was minimally restored back in the 80’s when found in Carson City, Nevada. The motorcycle was selected to participate in the Minden NV pre-16 road runs and it was prepared correctly to be a dependable ride with minimal restoration. Engine work was performed by Jeff Ziereck and he set up all running gear. This 1913 Indian Twin fires right up with a little pedaling and it is road worthy for a light run by accomplished riders!

Last ridden a few years back, this bike started right up to perform for the video camera in May of 2016.

Sold on a bill of sale and a Nevada parade license.
