Dale and his son are attempting to get an Indian motorcycle to start that hasn't been run in about 100 years. | For more What's in the Barn, visit velocity.discov... Subscribe to Velocity! | www.youtube.com...
A friend of mine paid $800 for an Indian Scout a guy rode on logging roads his whole life. It turned out to be an unfortunately altered 648 Scout. It is unknown to the motorcycling world that another one is out there on the road, so I thought I would share.
Hey Dale, Matt. I hooked up with you guys on the first Cannonball run, which was a blast by the way, and rode along on my ol' 47 rat Knucklehead from Greenville to Maggie Valley where I had to turn back just because I had not set aside the time to ride the whole way and man how I wish I had cuz I had so much fun and met some of the best people and had such a blast I felt like I was gonna bust open! Like trying to stuff 11 pounds of fun into a ten pound bag! But here is my question for ya, I am in Raleigh and I don't know if this is the best place to ask but here ya go, I have a couple of old Harleys, my Knuckle, Pan, Flathead but now and especially as I ain;t getting any younger I am keeping my eyes open for an old Indian, Chief, Scout, or 4 but just something rough that I can pick up for half decent and like all my other bikes put in the sweat equity so I can have a half decent little bike to round out my little collection. I ain't a rich man like so many of us except for Jay Leno,(must be nice), and so have always had to buy this way and then thru friends of these past 50 years and the ol' sweat build me a little something to putt around on. And I guess I am asking here because I have noticed that it seems like a lot of guys are selling barn finds thru RU-vid. I am hoping you can help me to figure out how best to use RU-vid as I am not that computer savvy and I figure there must be some way of getting linked in to the listing of old Indians as they appear here. So anyway there you have it and I hope I am not putting you too much out there in asking for your help with this but I keep seeing you guys popping up here and so I thought I would ask. Thanks in advance for any and all advise you can give me, Knucklehead George BTW, enjoy your show on the Velocity Channel, always interesting to see what you guys are able to dig up.
Why aren't there any full shows here? Is this youtube account supported by the official Velocity Channel? I do subscribe to the Velocity channel through my cable company, but feel that if I am paying for it, then I should be able to watch any shows I missed at a time that is available for me. I don't do DVR. Is there a solution to this that I am not aware of? Thanks in advance.
Its amazing that that bike fired after 100 years without replacing even one part. But they could ruin it if they try to race it without going through it.
