Indian Motorcycle. Below is a detailed introduction of relevant content: History: The new product caught the attention of George Hendee from Springfield. The two partners established a manufacturing plant and assembled the first Indian Motorcycle (modern small single-cylinder locomotive) in 1902. SINGLE: A single-cylinder engine was mounted on a bicycle frame, with a displacement of 213CC. The engine used mechanical exhaust valves and pneumatic intake valves. Hedstrom's design of replacing the standard belt drive of the time with a full chain drive was a milestone for the motorcycle industry. Introduction: In 1903, a V-twin design was introduced, equipped with 2 and 3-speed transmissions, as well as a swingarm rear suspension. In 1904, Indian's production reached 596 motorcycles and won a gold medal in the Best Machinery selection at the St. Louis Exposition. Many advanced design concepts took years to realize. Examples include: fully adjustable front suspension, V-twin engine; electronic ignition; suspended spring frame.
