Indian Scout rake angle ?????
« on: March 17, 2015, 02:48:37 AM »
Does any one know the correct rake for an early scout frame ?

I have asked tony leenes , george yarocki , ken fox, jurgen hecker , moen , walkers , j parker , jurgen sundberg .... list goes on
it appears no one knows
I measure 23* but thats on a bent frame . I need to make a frame jig . George yarocki 101 frame diagram shows rake as 30* and down tubes 15* , the top tube is on a 5* slope .

if the neck were reset so the top tube was level then rake would be 25* and down tubes would be 20*

cheers

update :
scouts 1920 to 1939 = 25 degrees
ALL models 1940 to 1953 = 27 degrees
early chief 1922 to 31 = 20 degrees
Powerplus 1920 to 24 = 20 degrees
