SORRY not me, this my son with the lastest project we just got finished with for his graduation. He does let me drive it once in awhile. We brought this up from Nevada and did a complete resto on this also. We did beef up the 289 with a few mods under the hood though.
May there always be and Angel flying with you.

I rode motorcylces all through out high school, inculding the Honday 305 Scrambler (a great bike for it's time) and the Triumph 650 Bonoville (wish I had that bike today). My wife told friends when we started dating that she could identify my former girlfriends by the burns on the inside of their thighs.

Interesting picture of the young lady and the Indian Motorcycle. I note that someone has apparently converted the Indian shifter to the left side of the bike so as to conform the controls to the Harley Davidson configuration. Indian and HD were on opposite sides with the spark control grip, accelerator grip, shift lever, and the clutch pedal operated heel down engaged on the Indian and toe down engaged on the HD. The indian could be readily convertated to the HD configuration, but due to the shift lever gate mounted on the fuel tank, the HD configuration was locked in.
Sometimes I'm positively amazed at the trivial BS an old geezer can remember from the days of his apparently misspent youth!

As long as you can remember how the young lady operates.... you're still good to go!
Live to Ride!
