Sounds like a car…

You just sold me on a sidecar
One favorite memory from long ago was meeting you at the Griffith Park Sidecar Rally (RIP Doug Bingham). Good times… as always, thanks for sharing.
So beautiful
The color is a bit funky, but wow is that a BEAUTIFUL motorcycle. Very jealous. Thanks for the vid.
San Fernando Rd?
Jay is the best guy, she’s not stuck up like some other popular people. I met him 1 day at the Rock Shop up in Topanga 1 Sunday when he was out for a cruse on an old motorcycle he had just acquired. I wish I would have got my pic with him but I was too shy
He was all by himself unlike others like Arnold who cruises around with body guards and you couldn’t approach him. Keep on Rocken Jay 
They never had name problems because sjws don’t ride. Probably don’t know any other makers besides Harley.
I rode a Ural for 3+ years, loved it. Sold it to get the cash to build my 1949 EL.
Reminds me of a movie I saw in 2005 called “The World’s Fastest Indian” about a guy rebuilding one of these and setting a record at the Bonneville Salt Flats. Based on a true story.
man, that bike is sexy
I don’t know Jay, never met him, but he seems genuine and down to earth. And a true car/bike enthusiast, not just someone who has money to have whatever, but truly loves and knows the hobby.
Great video! I wasn’t into bikes until I saw this one. Love the side car too.
Jay, when will you review the Panhard 24?
**please keep the streak going and talk about using Wilwood brakes on everything
you don’t happen to have a Ural hiding in your bike collection, anywhere, do ya? i found out about those when I went to get my mother from work one day. she happened to spot one (still in millitary olive drab!) sitting in the parking lot.
I Loved indian motorcycle are amazing.
Indian WILL come under fire for being Evil Racists. The SJW’s just haven’t gotten around to it yet. But they will. As soon as they notice…they will.
That is a beautiful machine.
Nice piece of history but, lol… shifting gears with your hand off the handle bars, that’s suicide stuff to me! X)
I know it is part of history but that bike sounds like a sick dog, sorry
sounds like a vw…. great looking bike…
I like that orange. I barn found an old KZ 900 KAW and painted it that color.
That is one sweet sounding engine.
That’s a helluva nice bike and car there!!! Love Indian 4’s!!!
hi mr leno. very nice sidecar. they need to get used to. but once you get the hang of it, they are a blast to pilot. i know, i own a ural sidecar. by the way, can you fly the chair?
This bike was made when men where men and woman were woman. You didn’t have this pc trash you have today.
How many lobes on the F head cam?
The color is great has that pastel era tone. Love a bike that a show piece and can run too! Great video Jay
Jay, thanks for sharing your toys with us.
Nice cool old Indian Thanks Jay
I think the engine of this motorcycle has the best sounding rumble at idle this side of a V-8!
jay can i visit ur garage
Beautiful bike.
My word, that sound @9:10 is glorious.
Sounds awesome. Way better than the new bikes
I can’t imagine kick starting 4 cylinders. Did they have electric starters on bikes back then?
Love it!!
Understated class!
It dawned on me while watching this video that we don’t know Jays CI? (Cylinder Index of all the motors he owns.. Paul Brandt used to use this term a lot. )
Jay you should buy my 1941 Indian Four cylinder, it would look great parked next to your Green Dusenburg! Here’s a link to my Four which is for sale there are two YouTube videos and my email in the video if you are interested. Thank you Jay!https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOHIgMfrzOGNhQa4ZXbSvww
Why don’t you enable auto-captions on your videos?
As an Indian, I love these bikes. Heck, I have a customized Vulcan 900 named Half Breed with a skirted fender because I can’t afford the real thing.
