1943 Indian 741 Scout
This is a 1943 Indian 741B. Engine and frame numbers match. The machine was
purchased some time ago as a barn relic missing many vital parts. Parts were bead blasted to bare metal and primed and painted in authentic colors.Fasteners were Parkerized as original. The engine was overhauled by a
professional and the new cylinders bored to 37ci. All rotating parts were replaced or overhauled.The gearbox received new bearings, the carb overhauled, the generator
overhauled by a professional shop and a new wiring loom fitted along with a fuse in the main circuit. The speedo was rebuilt by Starklite as was the oil pump. The tail lamps are correct and the saddle bags authentic originals.The big seat got a new cover stamped with the Indian logo.
This is a very reliable, easy to maintain machine. It usually starts first
kick, and has the enough power for most day to day needs. I have bought a chief and need to part with this good looking bike. I have participated in many events and vintage 'bike and car shows and it is always a head turner.Horn is not original, but I have the original that works (now and then). I
chose safety over authenticity. Comes with parts and overhaul book.$SOLD
