Indian Dirt Bike description

Vintage 1976 Indian MT-175 motocross bike

Recently restored original Indian dirt bike in top condition. Bike has been extremely well maintained with low miles, though there is no odometer. It is a super rarity in any condition since only about 100 moto-crossers seem to have made in the 175cc class in 1976, the last year of production by Indian.

This comes with a Minarelli motor with Mikuni carburettor, as these were both stock at the time. The carburettor was completely overhauled in autumn 2015 and the air filter replaced. The bike has always been stored in a heated garage and ridden sparingly over the years, just enough to keep it fresh. Almost all parts are stock. Everything runs fine – motor, front forks and rear shocks, clutch, gearbox, etc. The bike starts up right away when cold and after a couple minutes of warming up is ready to scream in a way the Indian 100cc and 125 cc models simply cannot manage. It is an absolute blast to ride and I can attest that it turns heads anywhere and everywhere it is seen.

The bike is a living, breathing antique, lovingly tended to, that is just raring to go with someone who really cares. Would be a great addition to AHRMA events! Do not miss this one chance to own a true collector’s item.

Please note the following: (1) The bike has no odometer so the mileage listed is an educated guess based on bike’s minimal wear and tear; (2) As is usual with vintage dirt bike sales, there is no title; (3) There is no warranty; (4) It is sold as is, with no refunds possible; (5) Serious inquiries only, please.

Harley-Davidson sells more Street Glides than it does Road Glide Limiteds (which basically adds the frame-mounted fairing and trunk), but the song remains the same.

Indian has registered a new name

Mon, 22 Apr 2019

What lies behind the promising Challenger name? The Challenger evokes strong associations with the Dodge muscle car but obviously the world will have to expand its consciousness for the foreseeable future - apparently, Indian is preparing a motorcycle of the same name. This is indicated by a patent dated March 27.
