About Me

One of the last true heros. 1949-2004 You are missed more then you will ever know. Rest In Peace. ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` ``````The man who has never Travel'd to Heaven in his mind is no Artist. --William Blake ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` ``````It started when I was twelve, I guess, with homemade two-wheelers. Briggs & Stratton cast-iron block one-half horsepower garden tractors, lawnmower-equipment powered mini-bikes. Upstate, being around the farms there's a lot of junk around to build with-bicycles, shopping carts, farm equipment. You could always whip up something. Dad was a carpenter, and I went with the metal. I first picked up a torch at around age fourteen. It was all pretty much figured out on my own. One of the guys who used to build the bicycles and mini-bikes--in his garage his father had a welder and torches. It always seemd that there was this stuff around. We had to figure out how to do it and it;s lucky we didn't kill ourselves. We didn't have a clue. I was handbuilding bikes from the very beginning. ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------this page is not affiliated with the indian larry legacy/shop.

My Interests

Indian Larry's inspiration was 50's - 60's motorcycle clubs, Ed "Big Daddy" Roth and the legendary, Von Dutch. The skilled machinist, metal-sculptor and master motorcycle mechanic won countless custom shows, participated in motorcycle racing, and originated the hard-core motorcycle style - a blend between classic choppers and hotrod race bikes. Indian Larry's resume includes movie, video, television, and magazine spreads. His eccentric nature combined with a unique and colorful appeal has gathered great interest from media, producing a fanatic fan base. Larry can be found around beautiful women, tattoos, motorcycles, and the Coney Island Polar Bear Club.

I'd like to meet:

everyone.
