Indian Scouts, they were the most commonly used motorcycles for the wall of death because of their steady frame and reliable steady going engine. Most popular were the scout built before 1928 (the introduction of the 101 Scout) because they have a shorter wheelbase. Also the 101 scout has a front brake. So these bikes are 1920 to 1928 Scouts |

Nope, this is hand-made motorcycles for "wall of death". Engine from "Jawa", hard tail rear suspension, hard fork. -- Last edit: 2010-09-23 17:18:12 |

I see a leaf sprung front fork, V-twin engine, wide handlebars and and pan saddle. Looks like Indian Scout to me. Jawa never built V-twin engines as far as I know (besides the racing machines of course). Have a look at http://www.steilewand.nl/ |

Pomtidom is right, it's a 101 Scout, look at the frame. ![]() |
