Starting a 1915 Indian 61cu.in. boardtrack racer at Yesterdays Nederweert Netherlands.
Look at the flames coming out of the ported cylinder heads.
This bike was found dismantled in an Australian collection some years ago.
Boy, we have a hard life........

  • I have been a bike freak all my life. Owned at least 40, 6 presently, as a self employed machinist , I have never hit the big time financially, and if I won a mega million lottery, not that I buy tickets, and have little dreams about aquisitions, , a bike like this would be the first to search for. Lights? REG.,? Ins,? Talk to my lawyer !!!!! In all seriousness, God bless you for keeping this bit of history original and showing it to folks like me. Willy.

  • Ride it around as hard as you dare until it runs out of juice .

    Make a DVD of the action.

    This is motorcycle porn.

    What 95 year old woman could ever arouse a biker as that raging beast of a bike does?

    It is nearly a 100 years old and it is as mean as a chained lion.

    I wonder what their security is like??

    I think we should liberate it and take turns riding it through the Gotthard Tunnel & back. The roar would start avalanches on the surface & scare the shit out of everyone within 10 miles!

  • You have to love this stuff. Just goes to show that it has all been done before. You would have to have big cohunas to be riding that at full speed with the safety gear they had in those days, ie none. :)

  • Daily driver.

  • Australian Huh? Go Anzacs!!!

  • awesome machine, i love these old race bikes

  • thats almost as loud as my toothbrush! :)

  • first rat-bike!

  • Is it haunted?

  • Imagine being at a Motordrome race at night with five of these 8-valve Indians spitting flames pushing 100 MPH,.....and the lights go out,....its pitch black,.....30 seconds later the lights come back on,....this was common back in 1908-12

  • @herbienbrian2 - NO it is absolutely not a rat rod by any stretch of the imagination. This is a purpose built racer - not a mix match of parts - ONE MAKER FORGED PARTS - recognize

  • @SuperNick134 It's a board track bike, no brakes, just cut the throttle and coast to a stop :)
