My Indian Motorcycle

Yes, I had an Indian motorcycle. No, not the big classy street bikes of the 60s - but rather the small trail bike of the 70s. I don't recall the exact model, the image below is matched on best recollection (most our family photos were lost in a house fire). I do recall it was red and about 80cc. 




1973 Indian SE-74




This was actually my second "motor bike" - the first being one of those classic mini-bikes built with a lawn mower engine - but my first "motorcycle". I can't begin to describe the number of hours I put on that bike, most of it going around and around in circles in the back field at the farm.
