The 1933 Indian Four was one of the most powerful two-wheelers of its time, as well as one of the most expensive ones. It boasted an estimate 30 horsepower from its air-cooled, in-line four cylinder powerhouse, and could reach a top speed of 75 mph. Also, it came with a solo seat, laced wheels, rider floorboards, a hardtail rear suspension, and a large, 4.6-gallon fuel tank. | |||

The 1937 Indian Four was one of the first four-cylinder two-wheelers ever to be produced. This machine is one of the predecessor of the modern-day, big-bore touring motorcycles, and was one of the most comfortable and long-haul oriented machines of its time. It came standard with a hardtail rear suspension, laced wheels, a dual exhaust system, pull-back handlebars and a single seat. Also, this was the first year when Indian introduced a new engine, an upside-down four-cylinder one, that produced a claimed 35 horsepower at 3600 rpm. | |||
