i enjoyed your ture of Indian Motorcycles sir. Iused to have an Indian Warior. A 1950, and my Dad bought the parts off of Sam Pierce in Monrovia. WE came out to Anahime to your shop, before you moved to Perris Ca. The Indian Motorcycle was the only motorcycle my Dad used to ride, back in the 30,s and 40,s. Thank you for keeping the dream alive. I had heard that after Old Sam had passed, you had bought him out. It was after that you had moved to Perris Ca, The last I saw You I was15 yrs. old. I,m 67 yrs. old now. Thanks again for keeping the dream alive . James Fleiter My Dads name was Andrew T. Fleiter
Damn! What a gorgeous collection! I just bought my very first Indian! A 2014 Chief Vintage! I'm in love with this bike. It started me into the fascinating world of Indian bikes. I'll be 55 in a month. I'm a late bloomer!
Bought my second '48 Chief from Bob. Work done on it by Wilson Plank. Went on impromptu rides and field meets with Bob, Shorty and gang. RIP Bob and Shorty. Still in contact with John Bivens in Greer's old Stanton shop .
The old man is gone with God, but, his son hasn't the soul. I ordered parts from them and they charged a huge price for shipping. Better places for Indians
Me and my nephew visited Bob Stark's back in the late 80's and he gave me a ride on his red Indian Chief with all the miles on it. I think it was over 200,000 at that time The ride was smooth over bumpy roads.It was a great treat. Thanks Bob I wish their was more Americans like you .
Check out Antique Motorcycle Collector/Appraiser on facebook- We buy/sell/trade 1900-1940's American Motorcycle and Memorabilia. Motordrome Racing History project we are working on,so always looking for info on that. For the best Indians Bob Stark is the Man
I agree, i have 2, 2015 Indian Chief vintage and a 2003 Indian Spirit Roadmaster. They truly are beautiful machines. I have had many many bikes over the years including sport or super sport and my 3 favourite are the 2015 Indian, 2003 Indian and a 2002 Yamaha v star 1100. still have all 3 and my wife rides a 2002 Yamaha v star 650 but sadly she doesn't ride that much, in fact, she only have 1700 miles on it but i do enjoy & appreciate when she comes out for a ride with me.
Beautiful bikes! It's great to preserve the history of these wonderful bikes and the part they played in the American industrial revolution. Thank you and I certainly admire your passion and attention to detail.
Talk about creating a new show called million dollar awesome garage!!!! What makes a man whole and cool!! My dearest gratitude to you for keeping such great history. May it live with you now and forever.
What a wonderful collection, and what a talented visionary. My brother is so looking forward to you putting his dream of many years together. I was so sorry to hear of your unfortunate accident, I sincerely wish you a speedy recovery.
Excellent video, great clarity of the film, with excellent close ups and crystal clear footage overall. Thoroughly enjoyed this, Thanks! and what a great bike too!!! Greetings from England Paul :-)
Mr Stark is a class act and his collection is amazing. I’d love to ride my Dark Horse Chieftain down the road with this gentleman. Id also enjoy his take on the new Indian bikes. I’d love to see him pour over the new Chief vintage in willow green!
Just a treat!! Was fortunate enough to have Bob, and Shorty as friends and Bob as mentor since 1986 until their passing.Two of the best people you could ever meet. There son Gary still caring on in their tradition, selling bikes, parts and offering advice.The museum collection was just outstanding back in the day a lot has bee sold over the years after Bob's passing. The powwow's were great and the fellowship fantastic!! Miss them, but I know there enjoying the Wigwam in heaven. RIP Bob & Shorty. Old Indians Never Die ………………. www.starklite.com/
Indians are my fave. going to get one for myself, problem is that they only sell them over seas. But at least they still sell the road-master. I'm also thinking on getting a Dark Horse.
Awesome, but the instant the full profile of a bike comes into frame, the shot changes. Stop panning and zooming for one second and let us just take it all in! Had to pause a million times to fully appreciate these badass machines.
I would enjoy parking that 40 scout and the 40 chief in my den to be taken out on sunny days to ride to the sonic . or local bike events . or even tour the Philippines on both of them with my wife . but , very very meticulously taken care of and ridden very conservatively , and cleaned after every ride .
In 1970-1973, I assembled a chief with a long front end. The motor number was CDH171b. I sold it for a tenth the value in 74 while in a fit of rage over pushing it a mile due to an unsoldered wire in my home made wiring harness. A kid came around the corner and was being a pest. I told him a thousand and not a dime less. 3 minutes later his daddy come around the corner in a new thunderbird. Caught up in my own good word. I should have run him off with a wrench and the soldering iron. Never saw it again. Sometimes I wonder where it ended up. I bought it from a fellow that was clearing out his deceased mothers house before demolition. His brother bought it and parked it under the back porch and was killed in Korea. It sat there under the porch for decades, finally holding the dilapidated porch up.I had some correspondence with Mr. Pierce. His generous donation of a manual along with some odd stuff I could afford as a kid put two old chiefs back on the street.Thanks for the video, fun nostalgia.
I don't how the comment (grow up was posted on your video ) some one must have Hacked my TH-cam . I would never say such a thing . My first experience on a MC was a Indian MC . My uncle had one he gave Rides often, I was 5 years old. Your MC are beautiful . Take Care Toptigher852 C/R
I had only one chance at an Indian chief full dress with everything in the kitchen sink it was literally behind the double doors in the bottom of a hey m o w in a barn in Wisconsin I was painting the barn I was a barn painter that's what I did for a living a free Lance Barn painter that painted Farms houses in metal roofs the farmer who hired me said he parked it there when he got out of the war and he told me straight out his sons and family were not interested in it unfortunately I never had a bank loan in my life I couldn't have bought it for even $1,000 it had all the fringes on the saddlebags and seat all the reflectors the chief on Defender it was original is that cobwebs and some hay on it I would have come back but I broke my back the following spring on a bull Taco 360 El Bandido and had a spinal cord injury I lived in a log cabin raised a wife and four kids in the woods it would have been a dream bike for me but as it was to this day I've never had a bank loan in my life and I'm just getting by
Since the economic liberalization of the 1990s, development of infrastructure within the country has progressed at a rapid pace, and today there is a wide variety of modes of transport by land, water and air.
@toptigher852 What do you mean by grow up? Ok I might have worded my comment a bit harsh. I'm simply stating that Indian motorcycles are far superior to Harly Davidson!!

I was thinking about buying a newer motorcycle but after some thinking I realized how badass the classic bikes are so I will probably just restore one
Love Indians!

made me feel good inside :)
We really appreciate all your great comments - THANK YOU
I have to see you from El chapo son laris Anthony forschen Guzman from Dunseith North Dakota native American Chippewa God bless you and family 🙏🤟💯
I dont think the guy is lying. But I want to argue that the 1949 Arrow has it's original rubber.
Awesome, but the instant the full profile of a bike comes into frame, the shot changes. Stop panning and zooming for one second and let us just take it all in! Had to pause a million times to fully appreciate these badass machines.
Dat too baad!!
sorrry we shot this for auction viewers so time kind of was of essence
That fiberglass fender bike was built in 68. Then harley comes out with one in 71. Interesting.
i wish he showed the indian 101 scout

Sad to see these not being used, like wild animals in cages.
Since the economic liberalization of the 1990s, development of infrastructure within the country has progressed at a rapid pace, and today there is a wide variety of modes of transport by land, water and air.
Huh??
shit those were badass days to bad the cold war era is over
