The real Burt Monroe ,and his 1920 Indian  scout ,worlds fastest Indian , what a legend ! Great movie 

 

I don't think that's really him. The real one has an uncanny resemblance to Hannibal lector

i dont thnk it looks like him either   but i do have some old archive film of Burt Monroe  around here somewhere..  when i find it i will get bac to this post.

LOL China shop bull

 

 

These Indians are pretty fast too.

 

 

That original bike , and his 1936 Velocette , are on display in a glass case in Hayes Hardware store , Invercargill NZ . The rego papers are framed and on display as well .
