That round-cylinder engine development was required by the Court when CMC was granted the rights to produce Indian motorcycles back in 1998, but unfortunately they went under just when that engine was being introduced. It did receive good reviews in the motorcycle press and would be great if the new Indian motorcycle company is using it. Their first model is due out this Fall. You can read about it on their website. http://www.indianmotorcycle.com/ We have had some threads discussing Indian's demise and return if you care to read them. http://hondashadowacetourer.yuku.com/topic/1572 http://hondashadowacetourer.yuku.com/topic/1624 http://hondashadowacetourer.yuku.com/topic/5768 http://hondashadowacetourer.yuku.com/topic/5787 Fred

HSATF Road Captain Posts: 313 04/23/08 10:09 AM Road Captain	Thanks for the link KC, but thats a long way to look at a bike. As time has shown me I must see the machine in person before making a deal. This is one I have my eye on now. Just waiting to hear from him http://cnj.craigslist.org/mcy/650873591.html There is also an 82 up the street for cheep but it has clutch problems. (not uncommon for the shovels) Its very cool but is a FLT which has gauges in the faring. I prefer the dash on the tank. Picky for a low budget eh? Denny

Once you start searching you will find there are many, many bikes out there. I recall watching and reading Alain's quest to find a special "T" and was excited for him when the right one came along. I'm sure this will happen to you as well if you are patient. Good Luck.... Hope you find a beauty. John P.S. You're right, pictures are deceiving as I thought that first bike was a pretty cool machine.

HSATF Road Captain Posts: 313 04/24/08 7:07 AM Road Captain	Your right John. I have to take my time and the right one will come along. The old shovels actually have more value than the late 80s to early 90s Evos. So finding a good one at my price is tricky. I doubt I'll find a beauty, just something solid to build. I'll be looking at a 1976 flh police bike this evening. It has less than 20,000 miles on it. Denny

HSATF Road Captain Posts: 313 04/24/08 9:30 PM Road Captain	Well I found another scooter. Not a shovel. It was such a well cared for bike and a great deal I could not pass it up. Female owned since 97 and serviced by the dealer. Now to take off all the fru fru. It's just not me. I think this one will be a bit more comfortable on my old bones than the shovel anyway. Denny

HSATF Road Captain Posts: 313 04/25/08 9:11 PM Road Captain	Thanks guys. The first thing I did was remove all the fringe. It's just not me. But thanks for being nice. It does have its flaws. Crash bar chrome is bad, corrosion on some fasteners. It was a shore bike and even though it was garaged, this happens. Any one that has lived by the shore knows what I mean. Its a really good start. Denny BTW, I put just under 100 miles in it today and I gotta say this thing is soo comfortable. It out handles the ace by a long shot and is much smoother riding (air suspension on all fours). Although the ace was quicker. At least up to 80 mph anyway. This seems to have more top end. I wonder if the ACE and the tourer were set up different (rake)? The ACE had much more rake than this and was almost like a mild chop. Last Edited By: DennyB56 04/25/08 10:16 PM. Edited 1 time.
