Fully Restored 1953 Indian Chief Roadmaster. Matching Sidecar added last year. "Indian 80" engine. Beautiful Bike! Runs, starts, rides well! As an added addition, an ELECTRIC START INSTALLED* this year! How many old Indians are collecting dust just because their owners can't kick them over anymore? No problem with this bike! It is great to be able to get on, turn the key and simply push a button to ride. All parts that were removed to install Starter will come with the bike. Please text me at:
