Thread Name: Indian Motorcycle: What's that song??!!!
Subject: RE: Indian Motorcycle: What's that song??!!!
A Vincent is a thing of beauty...rather the thoroughbred racehorse to the Indian's rather porcine appearance, although there was a time when the Indian Company were going to distribute Vincents in the USA...indeed a Vincent engine was shoehorned into an Indian frame to see if that scheme would work. The tester of this contrivance likened riding it to being akin to a yachtsman at the helm of the Quen mary! The whole deal fell through needless to say. Sorry, we digress.
