Pretty cool setup - RH tank shift lever, 3 speed transmission. 1st gear is all the way forward, then neutral, then 2nd & 3rd pulling back. LH foot clutch - "heel to peel" on Indians (toe to go on Harleys). LH throttle, which is opposite from all modern bikes. RH grip actually rotates the distributor via cable to advance/retard the timing.
LH throttle was supposedly so the law enforcement officers could shoot with their right hands while chasing criminals. IDK, sounds cool though!
