Following the failure of its vertical twins, Indian was bought by the British firm Brockhouse Engineering in 1950. Production of Indian's existing range was wound down, but there was a new model built by Brockhouse in England: The Brave. This low-budget lightweight was powered by a 248cc single-cylinder sidevalve engine that eschewed tradition by being built in unit with the three-speed gearbox. To suit the American market, the gear lever went on the left and the foot brake on the right, while the unit was installed in a conventional set of cycle parts consisting of a rigid frame with telescopic front fork.
This restored Indian Brave comes with its original old-style buff logbook showing that it was first registered to Dawson Cars & Motorcycles Ltd, Bedford. The history file also contains sundry invoices, a (part) V5C document, and a quantity of restoration photographs. ( Lots & Lots of photo's )
