RE: Solo and 2up Motorcycle history quest
In 1913 Indian released the "Hendee Special" with an electric starter. The starter worked great, but battery technology was in it's infancy and the batteries could not hold up to the road vibrations and would come apart while riding. Indian ended up recalling all those models.
As fars as 2-up seats, although there were some make-shift options, it wasn't until the early 1940s that Harley added the "Buddy Seat" and Indian responded with the "Chum-Me" seat as options. See the link below for the "Hendee Special". http://www.dufrene.net/indian/en/doc/hendeespecial.htm |
