First thing, get the spelling right.

Second thing, did you want the RE-built Indian Woodsman from 1955-59 or the Electra-X/Electra EFI-based Woodsman from 2008-2013? The latter would be easier to find in the UK.

Hi Roger,

there still seem to be a few older Indian-built Bullets (pre EFI) around for you to tinker with, though prices are going up by the looks of it. Any old Indian Bullet can be dressed up as a pretend Woodsman, the 50's originals were all exported to the USA where most of the survivors still are. A few have made it back to the UK, but you'd be lucky to find one.

The EFI bikes are not beyond home maintenance but I prefer something with a carb on it (not a car bonnet).
