  • Indian Resources?

    I am asking for suggestions on Indian identification. Out of the dozens of books published on Indian motorcycles, what do you feel are the best couple resources for identifying correct, original parts for the 1940s to '53 Indian Chief, etc.. Something in the line of Bruce Palmer's "How to restore your Harley-Davidson" published by Motorbooks International. Also a history book on Indians showing correct photos of the original models. I've never owned an Indian & need some schooling though I've been riding motorcycles for 60 years. Thanks!

    Books by Jerry Hatfield, but probably out of print so you would have to look on Amazon, and ebay. Also books by Butch Bear at the following link:

          Thanks Eric, Jerry Hatfield's book seems to have been republished with the title "The New Indian Restoration Guide" for $55. So hopefully it is still available!?
