Description:

2004 Honda Indian Scout 745 ......; The Indian Scout Motorcycle was born in 1920 and was the brainchild of Charles B. Franklin. In 1927 the Indian Scout Motorcycle, initially with a 596 cc (37ci) engine was bored out to 745 cc (45ci), and was Indian's most important model. The 1928 Scout 101 was and is regarded as Indian's best handling if not best-ever motorcycle. The Scout 101 won many races and it and the later Sport Scout which came out in 1934 and Standard Scout in 1936, were often hopped up for racing and street-fighting. Models of 1934 featured Indian's famous head-dress logo on the gas tank. Indian's huge Springfield, Mass. factory was known as the Wigwam, and native American imagery was much used in advertising. The Indian Scout went out of production after 1945. Ironically, Soichiro Honda rode a 101 Scout for a number of years and it inspired him to build motorcycles. The theme for this Honda Motorcycle is (Honda Indian Scout 745) it has a 745cc (45ci) 52 degree V-twin motor with, 3-valves and 2-plugs per jug, a single pin crank, single 1.34in. carb, two into one headers. The part's put on this Honda motorcycle follow the Scout theme, and are as follows / Indian head-dress, Scout    and 745 logo decals / 5-coats of clear paint  / Mustang studded seat /  River Road T-bag  / Custom made 6in. air intake with Spectre air filter and chrome top  / Accel 8.8mm plug wires  / muffler punched and drilled 7/8in.  / Nelson Muffler Corp. plate on muffler  / air injection on exhaust removed  / custom tag bracket with LED light   / custom chrome left engine cover / custom copy of a 1949 Indian speedometer  / red neoprene  vacuum  hose  / 5in. Retro mirrors  / chrome Vintage horn cover / custom stubby passenger pegs  / Indian points cover / chrome master cylinder cover / 45-70 Govt cartridge on chrome fuel shut off switch  / Oversize Dunlop tires / Dark Candy Red is Honda's name for the bike's color, but it is very close to the Vermilion that would later be known as Indian Red.
