IMPROVEMENTS IN THE 1913 INDIAN The outstanding feature of the 19U INDIAN Is the CRADLE SPRINJO FHUME, fitted to all models. This is the most revolu tionary and epoch-making depar ture from established syp'ems of motorcycle spring devices. Noth ing like It has ever before been attempted. Eighteen months of severe test and experimentation oy our engineering aepartment was devoted to the perfecting of this new device. The CRADLE SPRING FRAME Is. briefly, the application to the rear or the machine of the spring principle which has proved so successful during the past three years In connection with tne rront fork. Extending back horizontally from the frame-Joint cluster Delow the saddle, flanking the rear mud guard, are two seven-leaf Chrome 'a n,il! a n steel springs. The "C" shaped curls at" the rear end of these springs are connected by stays to bell-cranks on whlrh the rear axle Is hung. The forward end of the rear fork has a hlnse Joint, which enables the wheel to yield to Imperfections of road sur- BIG 4 H. P '. MONSTER 7 H.

The rear wheel can go through almost any vertical motion without af fecting the body of the machine. There Is no "bottom" to this spring device. On the roughest road the rider Is conscious only of the smoth, forward gliding motion. The light est or heaviest rider feels no Jar and the life of the machine Is greatly Increased. The INDIAN MOTORCYCLE is now leafspring for and aft. This marks the first departure from the Inefficient spi ral spring system of yesterday. w Style fltims Single Clinch type, permitting the use of eith er 2 3-4 or 3-inch tires.
