Gorgeous Pope built Double Bar "Chinook" badged machine with many features in common with the infamous "Indian."
FP Keenan sold Pope bicycles and motorcycles out of his shop in Portland, Oregon as early as 1912. The fantastic image of a motorcycle club shows a painted billboard for the shop for added killer history.
The Chinook Indian Nation is located in present day Oregon but was originally made up of at least 5 larger tribes around the mouth of the Columbia River. There are many badges and bicycle makes that are inspired by Native American tribes, but this is a particularly interesting build to me.
Killer build, killer badge, killer bike.
$2500 picked up in Richmond, VA
Delivery / Meetup at Copake Available
I would prefer not to ship but we can work on it if we cannot make it work otherwise.
