@2cvdave I think the information you presented is in regards to the earlier single cylinder bikes. I think at this point (1911) the 500cc singles were producing 4hp, and the twins were producing 7hp. Of course, I could be thinking of another manufacturer. There were planty back then..

@ToneProjectTV That's a dumb idea. You would lose quite a bit of money by going that route. If someone were ever to sell a bike like this (which they would probably have to be crazy to do,) the best place to do it would be at a vintage motorcycle swap meet or an auction. Better chance of making more money in the end. But like I said, why would anyone want to sell one of these?

This was from when men were men and all motorcycle riders were mechanics!
The owner appreciates the interest. At present, he wants to keep it... and share its story with others.

Re speed, on another website, someone says, "The single-cylinder motor was modeled after the de Dion-Bouton vélocipède engine, which produced 1.75-horsepower. The Indian Single could reach a top speed of 25 miles per hour."

Yes, the owner replaced the tires, and rode it onto the field. It's a great bike!
