Burt Munro’s Great Nephew To Recreate Land Speed Run On Modern Indian
Lee Munro, a descendant of legendary Kiwi Burt Munro, will pilot a factory-prepped 1131cc partially faired Indian Scout at Bonneville this year, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Burt’s land speed record.
On 13 August 2017 Lee will try to recreate it on a modern Indian Scout with a custom aerodynamic fairing dubbed the “Spirit of Munro Scout.”
Lee Munro has won several races and titles in New Zealand, including a recent victory in a vintage motorcycle race on a 1941 Indian. He also plans to eventually race in the Isle of Man TT.
