1911 Indian Cafe Racer project

Posts : 2 Join date : 2011-09-06

I wanted to buy an antique motorcycle but was shocked at the prices so I got a good picture of a 1911 Indian Board Track Racer and scaled out plans from that as I already knew the size of the tires. Everything you see I hand fabricated. Tank, frame, Fork. All other components are from Professional Cart Racing or Bicycle industry. The engine is a GX200 Clone racing engine (200 cc) putting out 8 hp. Original Indian Singles were 500 cc putting out 4 hp. Top speed is around 50 with my current gearing. I run a Comet CVT transmission that gives me every available gear ratio between 1st and overdrive automatically. Tires are P rated motorcycle tires for 92mph speed. Draws a LOT of attention when I ride it around here in the United States Smile

I'm just a hobbyist myself. I have a career as far away from bikes as you could be. Thanks though!
