Hey Paul, can that bike be easily converted to a street legal bike ? ............in California..?It looks like everything is there, wondering about engine being able to pass smog? Was it built for a street legal class?

If Indian would buy it I'd race it. I've got a big inch motor that'd make it haul ass. Right now ( if it's like it was ) it'll pull th' front wheel off th' ground in 2nd gear.

That being a Gilroy I doubt they would do it, but they should set you up with a 09 demo bike and let you have at it.

That is Sam Whites...that was built by guy that owned Indian of Columbia SC....Hot Street class...they made it 92 cubic inches if not mistaken to meet class restrictions and used it also as tow bike for the nitrous bike Sam White rode. I think it had a 150 or 180 rear tire...cut frame to give chain clearance and chain final drive....it was FAST! I used to have a bunch of pics of it when I would go up there as that was my warranty servicing dealer after I bought REDHOTBITCH.....Dave was the owner...he was DAVE'S PLACE before he became Indian Dealer. Guy that opened Carolina Customs and got Dave to sell his dealership and got AJ to sell rights to his custom paint shop and go together in Lexington ended up screwing them both over...and they all went down I think.

 

That engine does not have any gaskets either machined it down...customer valves and lifters and copper ring inlaid in covers and such for tight seal when racing.......wondered where it went.

I got one out of state Indian I can't smog now.......seems like a legit question.
