For 1951, it's quite the Hot Rod. Although it looks the part, it's really too heavily modified to be considered a Bobber. Pierce hoped it would become a factory model.
I like the "H-D parts dept." gag.
Old time cyclist seem to always come up with clever slogans for putting down other makes.

Nice. Are those pictures from Tod Rafferty?
I have the same picture of the P-61 in his big coffee table book "The Indian-The History Of A Classic American Motorcycle"
I was going to scan the above picture in for my blog, but the picture plate was twice as wide as my scanner bed was!
Yup. Thought you like it.
It's a 3 scan composite. Left, Right, and one just to get the top of the nacelle and handlebars. all info was then re-typeset.
Too much work for one photo.
