Indian Chief description

I got this bike last month from an estate, it had been sitting as an indoor display for years.

I got it running and it all works fine, runs & rides good. Ive put about 100 miles on it since it then.

the paint looks pretty good, but theres a few small marks & scratches, & one lifted chip near the right gas cap, see pics.

frame & engine numbers do not match. The title says its a 1940, & its titled to the engine, which going by the numbers, CCH, is a 38. the frame # is really hard to read but looks like its dated 45.

the correct 1938 cylinders are there, and in nice shape. the heads look to be from the 40s

as far as I know, the parts are original, not repop, but I'm no indian expert.

shipping is up to the buyer, but I can help arrange enclosed shipping anywhere in the US for 450.00, with an actual bike shipper, not some clown from u-ship with a 30 year old pickup loaded with goats.

overseas buyers are welcome, but shipping is up to you.

full payment due within 7 days, 500 deposit due upon purchase thru paypal
the balance to be paid with a check, bank transfer, or cash at pickup.

I dont mind storing it for a month if you want to come get it or arrange shipping

email with any questions

1st-Ever NYC Motorcycle Film Festival Sept. 26-28

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

In case you hadn’t noticed, we’re in the midst of the biggest creative boom centered around motorcycles since the 1970s. The massive, youthful rise of moto-mania has excited big motorcycle factories to collaborate with rising garage artists, and has inspired professional filmmakers to produce that long-dreamt-about motorcycle feature film. Every customizer has an in-house photographer and a YouTube channel; media platforms from magazines to television shows are swamped in advertisements featuring riders and bikes; and biker fashion is all the rage on the streets, sidewalks and runways from Venice to Williamsburg.
