This 1948 Indian Chief motorcycle, manufactured nearly seven decades ago in the United States, embodies a timeless classic amidst Oregon's rural charm. Found in Portland's vicinity (97227 zip code), this vintage bike carries an era of retro styling and mechanical prowess reflected in its robust specifications. Boasting a powerful 74ci V-twin engine meticulously rebuilt by Ken Edmiston back in 2001, it delivers an authentic riding experience characteristic of its golden age. Painted resplendently in red with a contrasting solo saddle, this Indian Chief showcases meticulous craftsmanship, having undergone refurbishment including transmission rebuild and a touch of Boring, Oregon's Terry's Body Shop finesse. Despite its nostalgic allure, the 1948 Indian Chief maintains versatility thanks to its hand-shifted three-speed transmission, making it a captivating choice for collectors or enthusiasts seeking an iconic piece of motorcycle history.
