So the past 6 years have been spent making this bike absolutely bullet proof in every way, shape or form so that I would have the peace of mind of knowing, "this bike was done right." And, it has been a labor of love to get it to this condition and no expense has been spared. Just 65 miles into my owning the bike, the motor blew on the freeway 850 Miles✔ Electric Engine

As 1942 was a war year, a very limited number of civilian-model motorcycles were produced, with civilian automobile and motorcycle production ending officially on february 9, 1942. Scout or "30. 50" (model 542) had the fewest produced, with at least 35 manufactured. These truly are the last of the pre-war indians and the last genuine civilian models produced under dupont ownership. These are not to be confused with "essential use" models which were devoid of chrome and painted in limited colors or converted military models such as the 741. Scout were discontinued following this production run and are, therefore, the "last of the breed". The earlier production models of this collection (jr scout and indian 4) retained the "teardrop" tank badges while the later production models of this collection (sport scout and chief) came with the "lollipop" style tank badges which were last used on 1946 indian chiefs. This collection of 1942 indian civilian models may be the only such complete collection in the world. _________________________ mileageall of these 4 models have limited mileage since restoration.
