Please note: The seller is managing the sale of this collection on behalf of the owner’s estate. He has represented each bike to the best of his ability and will be unable to provide further history or supporting documentation. The bike does not currently run and the seller cannot confirm mechanical condition. He has provided a walk around video and is selling the bike as-is. A local dealership will be providing the Bill of Sale; all fees (with the exception of Iconic’s buyer’s fee) and taxes will be accounted for by the dealer.
Indian introduced the Scout in 1920 and the run continued until WWII. After the success of the legendary 101 Scout, Indian did not have much luck with the Standard Scout or Motoplane. They attempted to remedy the common complaints with the Sport Scout in 1934 and the bike had some success in racing – it won the first Daytona 200, held in 1937.
The Sport Scout was powered by a 750cc flathead V-twin engine and differed from the 101 Scout with a lighter two piece frame, girder forks, upgraded Schebler carb, and alloy heads. Six years after its initial release, it gained the classic full skirt fenders. For more info, check out this quick story on Silodrome.
This example is VIN: 6403001; Engine: FD0662.
The odometer shows approximately 1,300 miles. Per the seller, “There is no document to confirm how many miles are on it but with pretty good fuel in the tank I would assume it has been ridden some from when purchased. I’m not sure how long ago it has been since it was ridden but its been on display for a long time.”
Maintenance:
The seller states, “Bad battery, motor turns over with compression.”
Modifications:
Per the seller, “It is unknown if there were any modifications that were performed by previous or current ownership.”
Inside of the tanks:
It is riding on Goodyear Eagle tires.
The sale includes one key. There is no supporting documentation.
