YOU CAN'T WEAR OUT AN INDIAN SCOUT - INDIANS AND THE WALL OF DEA

YOU CAN'T WEAR OUT AN INDIAN SCOUT - INDIANS AND THE WALL OF DEATH
BOEK VAN / WRITTEN BY ALLAN FORD & NICK CORBLE.

'FASCINATING. A MUST FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN EITHER THE WALL OF DEATH OR INDIAN MOTORCYCLES'.

The Indian Scout motorcycle is the favoured mount for Wall of Death riders all over the world. Drawing upon modern and archive material, most of which is previously unpublished. In this book Wall of Death owner and rider Allan Ford and author Nick Corble explore the reasons behind this relationship and bring the story of the Wall up to date. It's a story that spans more than a century, starting with experiments with motorised bicycles in the 1890's, passing through two world wars and ending by looking to a future where Indians continue to be restored and ridden on the Wall.
As this book makes clear the relationship between Indians and the Wall of Death is one that will never be broken. As Sammy Pierce, at one time the world's largest Indian motorcycle dealer once pit it :
You can never wear out an Indian Scout
or its brother the Indian Chief.
They're built like rocks to stand hard knocks,
it's the Harleys that cause the grief.

Leuk boek met veel foto's. Nice book with a lot of photographs.
