I enjoyed it too, wouldn't have beleived a water cooled motorcycle in 1912 until I saw it.

This is a good video Don Hall does as well.

Perfect. 1000cc and a sidecar. Either one would be my pick for a run at the MCR. Especially the Indian cuz, ya know, the ladies really like it......

Now if I could just win the lottery......

You know I've got a new Indian and its ladies that give me the most attention. One woman walked over and aid "I really don't know a thing about motorcycles but I just had to come over and see this one"

I rode down last Wed. to see the superbowl stuff, and while waiting at a light this older couple in a high end Mercedes pulled up next to me. I noticed the woman look over and then begin to look my bike up and down. Finally she made eye contct and lo and behold she gsve me a big thumbs up, not what I would have expected!. This DOn Hall might have a rel insight into this.

The color combination on your Chief is excellent, beautiful bike. As one of dad's friends always said (and he was a homely old country boy), "I wish I was rich instead of so durn good lookin'. "
Of course a bike that's a chick magnet would have me always at odds with the dear wife, even at those rare times that I'm actually behaving myself. LOL
