Upon closer inspection of the photo, it appears the bike is indeed headed to the TOP museum, which is reportedly reopening this coming winter with 200 bikes from collectors around the world. Very cool!
Munro’s 1920 Indian was 47 years old when he set the speed record at Bonneville in 1967. Everything about the bike, although heavily modified, was prehistoric. It seems like an impossible feat.
It’s weird to think that it’d be no different than riding the snot out of a “modern and reliable” ‘74 CB750 today. It’s the same 47-year span of time!
