Working in Springfield for many years I am familiar with the original Factory Plant some of the original buildings still survive. There was a Indian Motorcycle Museum there also in but I am not sure if it is still there. Funny how they are bringing back a military bike, it was part of Indians downfall that they were so intertwined with military production that they lost a lot of their Dealers because they could not supply Bikes for the civilian market, and of course H-D was able to. One regret I have is when a friend offered me a upright trade, his Chief for my BSA Royal Star! I turned him down and have kicked myself everafter.
