Re: Air tank to refill tires
I own an Indian four, and of course it had leaf springs. Took the
engine out to put a Ford Sixty V8 in, and was drafted, when I got back
my Dad had shipped it off to the dump. :-(

That's a bit further back than I started riding (in 1962),
and the only singles I've owned were a 125 Gilera and a 250
BMW; neither one had compression relief *or* spark control
(nor have any of the others I've owned/ridden since). My
current ride is a 750 Yamaha triple; it's also about the
smoothest bike I've ever ridden (with the possible exception
of the BMW boxer twins), but I've never ridden any of the
Honda sixes, or the various V4's.
