American bike buffs...

The image here is my current screen saver, I'm really interested in the very classic looking bike she is on, but does anyone know what it is?
Bryanj:
From the tank badge and air filter my guess is Indian
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I agree with Bryan looking at the front fender motif , the start of curve at the fender as it falls out of view - and the artists version - Indian.
Whenever I have seen an Indian in the flesh they always looked very old fashioned compared to Harleys with all the 1950's curves.
I never understood why folk removed the old front & rear fenders from the original Triumph Speed Twin & Triumph Twenty One series - I liked the Bathtub look back in the day and today.
Style is in the eye of the beholder much like Nut Brown body colours. ;D ;D ;D ;D
K2-K6:
As above, looks "Induan Chief"with the air filter on that side.
But looks like artistic license may have given it Harley Panhead cylinder heads, looking like inverted saucepan to cover valve rocker area.
Thought Indian had more prominent fins on head and maybe side valve arrangements.
Athame57:
Shifting gear by hand must have been fun. I was following a Harley (?) custom in south London that had one recently.
