  • That thing still holds the record for the fastest ever inline IC engine under a 1000 cc on two wheels on the salt flats. The Indian and Burt Munro. Two legends.

  • @binoyrakesh Amazing that no one has broken that record.

  • No, it's four-stroke side valve. To my knowledge Indian never made a 2 stroke, unless you count those little junky things in the 1970s that used the Indian name.

  • indian is amazing, the eternal engine and the most fast in the world

  • cool ,wouldnt wanna drive across the usa or canada on it,breakdowns would be hell,

  • That things probably worth a fortune.

  • @Zoomlens They did make a 2 stroke single cylinder machine in 1917 - gutless and not a sales success, it was quickly dropped from the range

  • @fattony252 lol thats because its so old it has lost so much compression it keeps running after its turned off, its as if the engine wont stall straight away just keeps slowy ticking over till it eventually stops hahaha

  • smooth running engine

  • Actually it is called a Pocket Valve or F-head engine, because it had an overhead intake valve and an exhaust valve in the cylinder. This year the intake would have been "atmospheric", or the suction of the intake stroke would draw it open, it had no mechanical operation.
