Harley-Davidson Legend

The quintessential American motorcycle celebrates its centennial in 2003. Readers are sure to get revved-up by the more than 120 full-color and historical photos that accompany the story of Harley-Davidson's ups-and-downs. A family affair, from the first model made in Milwaukee till the sale of the company to AMF in 1969, the saga continues with even greater success today. Check out the close-ups of bikes and riders (from Malcolm Forbes to rally HOGs), with bikes like the beautifully-restored early Silent Gray Fellow and the Peashooter, and the later Knucklehead and a customized Duo-Glide taking center stage. Closing with the great and still-growing annual rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, Harley fans will have a great ride through this chronicle of bikes and bikers--from the earliest bicycle-like machines toThe Wild Onerebels, cops, and custom jobs.Norris, Martin is the author of 'Harley-Davidson Legend' with ISBN 9780517222799 and ISBN 0517222795.
