Summary
This 1947 Indian Chief was purchased as a disassembled project in 1994 and underwent a comprehensive refurbishment completed in 2021 by the seller. Its 74ci V-twin and three-speed transmission were rebuilt by John Bivens of Indian Engineering Restoration, and the bike was refinished in black with a new brown leather solo saddle. The odometer shows only 10 miles since the refurbishment.
