  • My new old barn find DGP

    I just got this the other day.I was told it was over 50years ago it last was on the street,I think that sounds right if you look at the photos.it had a accident
    50 years ago the fork was bent,then they used it as a parts bike.
    I think it would work out fine fore disply as it is....

    are you teasing us?
    And what's with the "display"? Get a battery, or some gas, .....
    or tell me what you want for it.

        I'm very jealous, but excited for you as well.
        I tried to get into the 101's some years ago, bought eng/trans unit, but couldn't follow through on the rest (yet). .. magic in the name, more magic in the iron!

          I had a police scout 20 years ago ,that I restored and then sold it.beacuse
          fore the money I could get 6 unrestored bikes.I always regret that I sold it.
          but now I have1 agian.and this one I will keep.

          when I was 16 years old a man told where there was a old indian.I
          went out to the man,yes he had a indian,but not fore sale this was fore his son.
          I asked if I could se it No he said,I drove by him the next 10 years,and asked
          if it now was fore sale,and same answer no .then I forgot all about the old indian,
          until last year when I was out looking on 2 powerplus basketcase,they was to bad fore me.Then I rember the old indian,drove home found the number fore the old man (now 30 years later) he still had it,I said now must it be the time to make a deal ,he said yes next day I went by him to se the indian fore the first time,,,sow nice it was put away in 1963..
          next day I cleaned the carb and the points,and fired it up...
          and this bike is a 600cc.
