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 four-cylinder Four.

In 1927 Indian purchased the Ace Four, the brainchild of W.G. Henderson, which became the Indian Four. The first year it was known as the Indian Ace. The first improvement Indian did was to increase the number of main bearings from three to five. Meanwhile Mr. Henderson hooked up with Excelsio. Neither the Ace nor Indian fours should be confused with the Henderson-Excelsior Four, although all three derived from the same design by Mr. Henderson and thus look similar.

This beautiful Indian 4 motorcycle is presented in red and has gold pinstripes. It is reported to run with the visually impressive 77.2-cid inline four-cylinder engine, and it has a three-speed gearbox. Black wire wheels and blackwall tires, plus Indian 4 painted on the gas tank, a saddle-toned seat, headlight, taillight and “beach-style" handlebars complete the unmistakable period style.
