$145 adjusted for inflation is $4,278 today. still pretty cheap. in 1912, the oldest indian would be, what, 10 or 11 years? i'd pay $4,000 for an indian with a sidecar less than 10 years old. and the ad doesn't say, but that could be for a new bike.

Remember dad saying the 1929 JD he had before going in the army he paid 35 bucks for it I believe was in 1940.

Add 107 years of repair and maintenance fees to that. Figure storage costs as well. Honestly what would they be worth today if you paid that much and then left them sit outside (at least in most areas).
