Indian ME description

This Indian would be a great project, not requiring too much to be the gem of any collection.  It has good compression, but needs a few things to be in good running condition.  Does not have a title, but I will include a bill of sale.

The good:
Great frame with minimal rust 
Good fenders/tank
Almost 100% complete (see below)
Few dents or major damage 
Seat in excellent condition
Parts are cheap and readily available 
Matching numbers 
Good tires

What it needs
Fuel petcock
Air filter 
Clutch cover (new or repair)
Clutch will not go into neutral even when engine is off. I'm no mechanic but believe this could be sticking plates or a detente spring.  Bike has sat for years likely the reason.
Headlight/brake light/battery-previous owner. wanted to convert to a true dirt bike and removed. Wiring still present
Minor rust in gas tank-definitely can be cleaned out
Grips not original
could use repaint/new decals (currently not horrible but not great)
No title 

Bike is sold as-is. I have disclosed everything I can tell you about the Bike. If you have any questions please ask and I will do my best to answer.  Local pickup in Pittsburgh,Pa. I'm flexible on pickup, just communicate with me prior to purchase if special circumstances. Buyer assumes all shipping responsibility.

The company is developing fuel injected V-Twin engines in 750cc, 950cc and 1050cc displacements and Singles in 350cc, 450cc and 507cc displacements.

Steve McQueen’s Von Dutch Customized Bikes to be Auctioned Tomorrow

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Here’s an opportunity to own motorcycles associated with Steve McQueen and Von Dutch - need we say more? Get your credit cards out because tomorrow, January 9, 2014, will see a 1923 Indian Big Chief with Princess Sidecar owned by McQueen and fully restored by Von Dutch put on the auction block at the Bonhams Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction. Previously sold at the Steve McQueen Estate Sale in Las Vegas in 1984, the 74cu (1200cc) Indian is “capable of reaching speeds of 90mph.” If McQueen’s coolness factor isn’t enough, having the notoriety of Von Dutch’s restoration is the icing on the cake.

See Britain's land speed record hopeful at Race Retro 2010

Tue, 09 Mar 2010

SEE THE MACHINE that could propel Britain to a new motorcycle land speed world record at The Race Retro 2010 show, held at Stoneleigh Park, Coventry from 12th to 14th March. Almost a year has passed since Visordown broke the news of the planned UK assault on the land speed record - this coming August the Angelic Bulldog team travels to Bonneville, where it is hoping to smash the 400mph barrier and bring the motorcycle Land Speed Record back to the UK for the first time since 1937. The current record stands at 360.913mph over a kilometre.
