This 1937 Indian Sport Scout was built as a “Cut-Down” from a box of parts in the early 80’s by a great motorcycle builder who specialized in early American bikes. He did his first Scout Cut-Down at the age of 16 and this bike was built as a copy for his dad’s friend. Current owner is the second owner, and he has had the bike for 20 plus years. This bike has finished many an AMCA ride in the western states. This bike has taken on all challengers including Max Bubeck on his super tuned Indian 4. Max was not very happy about being beat by a Scout! This bike sports some of the best of Indian with nice add-ons of some English parts with lots of quality chrome and a custom rear frame section to support the BSA rear hub! The Indian 45” engine is actually a 57″ stroker with Bonneville cams coupled to the original 3 speed Scout box. Builder claims this ride will max out at about 120 mph! Now that is a fine Cut-Down!
