1940s Indian Chief Motorcycle

1940s Indian Chief Motorcycle

This incredible motorcycle was made by the Indian Motorcycle Company in its waning years following World War II. What amazed me the most was it’s art deco motorcycle version of an hood ornament: you definitely don’t see any of those anymore!
Sorry about the blurryness, but the lighting was bad. This was on temporary display at the Cincinnati Art Museum, but I wasn’t supposed to take pictures. Too bad, I did anyways.
