'The Electric Chair' - Issue 92
The word legendary is thrown around way too casually these days. From your mate Bernies legendary lasagne to that legendary night you won $78 and saw Flava Flav in Vegas (that actually happened to me).
What is truly legendary is this ‘39 Indian 4 built by Mike Fitzgerald in the 60’s which featured on the cover of the June 1969 “Choppers Magazine'“ only to go missing the next year & considered lost forever.
Fast forward to 2020 and after following some leads - DicE Magazine arrives at the home of the gracious owner Jerry Burger who warmly welcomes the team and shares his story of purchasing the bike in 1970 from Mike for the tidy sum of $2500. His valuation these days -“You know a Saudi Prince would probably pay $500k for this thing…” Yikes!
Story as seen in Issue 92 of DicE Magazine and soon to be unveiled at: Legends Motorcycle Museum
