Machines such as this Indian racer were push started to get the motorcycle rolling and were full throttle until the end of the race where the rider would cut out the magneto to stall the engine.Engine no. 41F092The bicycle is expected to sell for between $40000 - $50000.THIS IS OUR SECOND STEVE MCQUEEN TRIBUTE OUR FIRST ONE SOLD FOR $4800REED’S VINTAGE THROTTLE HAS BUILT A ONE OF A KIND TRIBUTE CYCLE TO ONE OF THE RAREST INDIAN RACERS EVER BUILT OWNED BY THE “KING OF COOL” THE LATE STEVE MQUEEN. We hope to educate our customers on the true functions and style of the original Board Track Racer by studying the history and detail of each board track racer from the early 1900’s. There are many video’s available of the original board track racers and the races that have made these rolling pieces ofart so popular today.

For instance there were NO BRAKES OR SUSPENSION! ( on front wheel or back) We try to replicate our racers as close the originals as possible from our custom built frames to the engines.Our bikes do have rear heavy duty brakes for safety measures for today's rider. Please do your homework before buying a cycle from many who have saw the popularity and demand for these cycles and do not understand functionality or safety or even what a true “Board Track Racer was all about”! You need to pay close attention to detail of the mechanics and design that what your investing in could be nice enough to not only be displayed BUT THAT WILL BE A FUNCTIONING EVERY DAY RIDER IF NEEDED!! IF NOT IT IS NOT A TRUE BOARD TRACK RACER TRIBUTE!!! Don’t invest in a cycle that someone bought a couple cans of rattle can spray and bolted on a few parts and are calling it a Board Track Racer!

REEDS VINTAGE THROTTLE HAS BEEN BUILDING CUSTOM BIKES SINCE 1971. WE STARTED BUILDING AND DESIGNING CUSTOM MOTORCYCLES AND ANTIQUE STYLE BOARD TRACK RACERS TO SHOW WE EVIDENTILLY CAPTURED THE DESIGN WITH PEOPLE THINKING THEY WERE THE ORIG. BAORD TRACK RACERS .. …..FOLKS WANTED US TO BUILD THEM FOR SALE. We built everything from our BASIC MODELS TO A MORE EXOTIC CYCLE OR OUR EXTREME SERIES. Our goal was to design a cycle for every budget from a every day rider to totally custom extreme cycle featuring many exclusive engine parts built and designed by us for not only a more authentic look more power and performance. OUR EXTREME SERIES FEATURES OUR PATENTED 180 INDUCTION ENGINE….WHICH THIS RARE 1914 INDIAN FEATURES. IT WILL TURN HEADS CAN ASSURE YOU!!

WE ARE THE 2015 “EASY RIDER *. **ANTIQUE BIKES

AND PEOPLE’S CHOICE!!! THANKS TO ALL THE FOLKS WHO VOTED ON OUR BIKE FOR THEIR “PEOPLE’S CHOICE” AND TO EASY RIDER THEMSELVES FOR MAKING OUR BIKE # 1 AMONG MANY BEAUTIFUL ANTIQUE BIKES AND TALENTED BUILDERS! THIS WAS A HUGE HONOR WHICH WE GREATLY APPRECIATE! We have been featured in V-Twin Magazine with one of our previous builds. Also one of our bikes was also chosen by the World Famous photographer Michael Licher to be photographed and featured in one of his articles. We have tried to do these rolling pieces of art justice and honor of the riders and companies who built them. It is something we take very seriously.

So know that if interested in one of our racers we have built many have many repeat customers and YOU ARE GETTING WHAT YOU PAY FOR!! Unfort many fly by nite sellers have popped up with racers and when looking at the quality of the cycle and the work it is apparent they do not know any of the history behind board track racing or the cycle dynamics itself. Nor do they apparently have any talent in bike building with all bolt on products no actual custom building skills at all….just want a piece of the action in replicating American History for a quick buck….to be blunt. That is not what were are about at REED”S and our work STANDS FOR ITSELF. So just beware when buying a cycle and make sure it is from a reputable bike builder that has the love and passion of the art and history of the Board Track Racer!...and most of all knows WHAT THE HECK THEY ARE DOING!!
