Yet Another New Toy Thread - this one is a bit different!

My Dad has just bought a 1922 Indian Scout, I'm hoping to buy a half share of it! Not the best photo but you get the idea. It's absolutely lovely. I didn't try to start it today, need to do a bit more research first!

Bloody hell, the only thing on here that is older than me.

That is truly stunning - I am no fan of motorbikes, but that is great!

BTW, if you fancy a couple of hours in front of the telly, watch "The World's Fastest Indian"

Cheers,

Burt Munro, watched it about a year ago, really uplifting film.

Yes I think I saw that too!

Lovely film. Lovely lovely bike.

[ChrisG]

Not seen the film yet but I'm told it was based on a true story and bike was based on a Scout?

Also interestingly, there is an Indian Scout being launched for 2015....

Awesome film, just awesome, only saw it for the first time last year.

Nice bike, don't get old stuff that much but I get that.

That is a thing of beauty

Wow, that looks great. Not much knowledge of old bikes but I do lobe them.

Are the brake, clutch on the different side with an older bike?

Ps If anyone is down in Birmingham then would recommend a visit to the Motocycle musuem. Lots of lovely old bikes their and some very expensive ones (including Brough Suppiers) which Lawrence of Arabia used to ride: http://www.nationalmotorcyclemuseum.co.uk/

Lovely that, perfect for a bit of Wall Of Death action too


Sent from somewhere using something

Very nice

Is that a leaf-spring suspension set up on the front?

[graeme]

Stunning! Great film too.

[greyrigg]

Cracking looking bike.

I love the suspension arrangements on old bikes, sad I know.

I really enjoyed the film as well.
