Featured in this sale is the personal collection of Michael Corbin, founder of prominent seat manufacturer Corbin. Mr. Corbin passionately assembled a select collection of unique, meticulously restored motorcycles. While the focus of this 20-bike collection is the legendary American make Indian – with the headliner surely being Steve McQueen’s 1940 Indian 45ci Scout – other makes are also represented. Highlights include:

- 1912 Indian 7hp Twin
- 1929 Indian-Crocker 45ci Overhead-Valve Conversion
- 1933 Crocker Speedway Replica
- 1940 Indian Four
- 1942 Indian Scout
- 1948 Indian 74ci Chief
- 1951 Indian Brave
- 1970 Indian “Clymer” Enfield

European

In addition to the Corbin Collection, many other motorcycles and motoring-related memorabilia are included in this sale. Some of these include Evel Knievel’s 2004 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail (with a custom red, white and blue paint job, what else?), a 1903 Rex Single, an 1894 Hildebrand & Wolfmuller Recreation, a one owner from new 1975 Ducati 750 Super Sport ‘Round-case,’ bronze sculptures by Jeff Decker, and oil paintings by David Uhl.
