1931 Indian Four

This 1931 Indian Four is powered by a 77ci inline-four paired with a three-speed hand-shifted transmission and is finished in Indian Red. Equipment includes a sprung cognac leather saddle, a leaf-spring fork, a kick starter, a four-into-one exhaust system, a cross-braced handlebar, a side draft carburetor, a rear stand, drum brakes, wire-spoke wheels, and rider footboards. The bike was acquired by the seller over a decade ago and is said to have been refurbished in the time since. This Four is now offered with a clean California title in the seller’s name. The bike was refinished in Indian Red with gold and black accents under current ownership. Equipment includes a matching tube frame, a congac leather saddle, a headlight, a taillight, a horn, a chain guard, a right-hand-side shifter, a rear stand, and footboards. Black-finished rims are laced with bright spokes and are wrapped in Carlisle blackwall tires. A leaf-spring fork and seat springs comprise the bike’s only suspension. Braking is from drums at both ends. A chrome cross-braced handlebar is mounted ahead of an amperage gauge and light switches. No odometer is present on the bike, therefore total mileage is unknown. The air-cooled 77ci inline-four is equipped with an oil pressure gauge, a sidedraft carburetor, a kickstarter, and a four-into-one exhaust system with a chrome heat shield and exhaust pipe. The engine was reportedly overhauled under current ownership. Power is delivered to the rear wheel through a three-speed hand-shifted transmission and a drive chain.
