    INDIAN CHIEFS
    UPDATE: By popular demand we are now spiral binding this so it will be long time Reference Guide
    Long time vintage bike aficionado, restoration rider & author, Acer Colt  has assembled :
    THE MASTERS GUIDE to Learning INDIAN MOTOCYCLES.
    ( - The  INDIAN FOUR MOTOCYCLE series is excellent, wildly popular.
    Available on eBay.)
    Now for a limited time THE INDIAN CHIEFS.  All details, All Facts,
    ALL YEARS.
    Laid out and designed to make you a CHIEF MASTER in days or weeks.
    No fluff, no long stories, Just a college level review of every single detail change or factory (Wigwam) modification to the INDIAN CHIEF.
    Laid out year by year and line by line.
    >In minutes you will find out why the 1940 CHIEF changed the motorcycle world.
    > In seconds you will know what GREAT 1936 innovation FLOPPED and was removed midyear.
    Not just FACTORY DOCUMENTED CHANGES- Also "running changes"  - these were mid-year improvements/modifications the Wigwam wanted done - immediately.
    example--1951 INDIAN CHIEF (new) Horn/ Safety guard interfered with NEW fork action- Moved 1/2 inch.
    Notes and details- Every year had changes- some years ALOT --1947-  not so many.
    The WAR YEARS.  You need to know what the Police Departments were buying.
    DISCLAIMERS:  All books in the MASTER GUIDE course are designed for collectors, restoration experts, mechanics- people with an understanding of all components of internal combustion engines.
    The CHIEF was an F head. Maybe in IOE.  What was the EL Harley?  What was the INDIAN FOUR series?
    All of these components are reviewed, magnetos, generators, metallurgy.
    And-- This is designed like a college level study guide-
    Page after page after page of clear, concise notes.
    >> NO PRETTY PICTURES<<  NO FUNNY STORIES <<<<
    If you aren't serious about Mastering the INDIAN MOTOCYCLE SERIES (FOUR- CHIEF- SCOUT) DON'T BUY THIS GUIDE.    If you don't like SPEC SHEETS with displacement, tire size, horsepower, height, width, voltage, ratios DON'T BUY THIS guide.
    You want to learn ALL ABOUT THE WIGWAM?  Buy SUCHERS excellent book, ALL THE IRON REDSKINS-- He will make you a master of INDIAN MARKETING, DEVLOPMENT and SALES STRATEGY.
    No Expert or author  is better than JERRY HATFIELD.  I have his books memorized.
    His books are the BIBLES. BUT-- you will have to read 125 pages on CHIEFS, 127 pages in FOURS and SCOUTS 127 pages.  Take that on a cruise.
    With this MASTER GUIDE - You will be a walking expert in no time.
    Because of the extreme life of the CHIEF (1922-1953)  this MASTER GUIDE is nearly 30 pages.
    AUTHORS NOTE:  Start with 1953 and go back- The last 10 years were the real ICONIC ones you want to know.
    In the mail you will receive a Printed Hard Copy of THE INDIAN CHIEFS MASTER GUIDE.
    THIS WILL BE SPIRAL BOUND- You will want to use this for reference for years to come.
    BONUS #1  The judges pick the top 3 CHIEFS to buy and why
    BONUS #2   The official INDIAN MOTOCYCLE JUDGES scoring sheet.
    For the first time you can see what the judges are looking for (you already have the answers in your MASTER GUIDE)
    example- Did the 1932 CHIEF have a belt guard on the generator?  Did it even have a generator?
    Standard issue or option?
    What the judges look for and the points they take off when they don't see it.
    BONUS #3  To restore or NOT restore.
    See what the experts say
    As with all COLT MASTER GUIDES- Satisfaction and
    Success
    is guaranteed.  If you can't tell me what year CHIEF is in this eBay ad - MONEY BACK.  If you can't tell me the 3 things that make THE MASTER GUIDE cover bike a 1935-- MONEY BACK.
    Get ready to know and love THE INDIAN MOTOCYCLE.
