As I mentioned in the discussion area, this will be a tribute to the first Indian boardtrack bike. George Hendee was the president of Indian motorcycles. I'm starting with the pile o parts in the bottom picture. Early 70s Schwinn continental frame, 28" wheels from oldy57, dogleg crank, etc... I have some 700x40c creme tires on order and I plan on painting the rims black. I would like a early Shelby sprocket (the one that looks like Swiss cheese). The bars will be cut and re-welded to look like Indian racer bars. I have a black brooks on order from Nashbar. I will need to fab a seat post, seat stay, gas and oil tank.
The inspiration.
