Indian All description

For Sale is my 1950 Indian Chief Blackhawk 80 cubic inch motorcycle.  I bought this bike from the 2nd owner and he had many wonderful stories to tell about the old Indian.  He acquired it in the 60's and rode it for a few years only to take it apart and leave in boxes for 40 years.  It was put back together around 2008 and he still had all the original parts.  I have the original steps for it, I have the original Indian saddle bags.  There is also a box full of original and spare parts.  The motor has been rebuilt.  I have the original pistons that came out of the motor.  The fenders and tank have been repainted the original Indian red.  This bike has spent the last 6-7 years just going to motorcycle shows in the Midwest region.  I have not tried to start the bike for awhile.  I drained the gas out of it so it wouldn't get gummed up.

 I'm currently judging interest in the bike and if the right price/offer is made, I will probably sell it. If you need any other pictures let me know.   

Ultimately, I am looking for the "right" person to buy the Indian so that I can carry on what the older gentleman who sold it to me wished for.  He owned it for over 50 years, and that's rare these days. 785-633-9336
