I can't name the bike but the farm looks familiar. I grew up and spent most of my life outside of Oregon. I lived across the road from the White Pines State Park. Have you ever been to the hill climb out there?

Those hillclimbs were at my parents place... that is where I grew up. Who knows, I may have caught you or your bike if you were crazy enough to throw yourself at that hill. I was on the 'hill crew' a number of times.

I'm thinking Henderson to. Fender look right for one. 4 cyl. Maybe around '31 or a bit earlier.

 

I had a '36 Indian years ago. Don't look right for that.

 

Just guessing.
