History Timeline THE STORY OF A LEGEND

1920-1929

In 1923 the company is renamed Indian Motocycle Company, dropping the "r" in "motorcycle".  It's a decade of growth for the Indian model line, starting with the revolutionary 1920 Scout and followed by the 95-mph Chief, the even more powerful Big Chief, the lightweight Prince, the awesome 4-cylinder Four.  The 1928 101 Scout becomes the machine of choice for "wall of death" stunt riders.
