Harley-Davidson: The Legendary Models - Hardcover

Harley-Davidson is the king of motorcycles, the one every rider dreams of owning. This lavish volume--with more than 20 foldouts--celebrates the American company and its legendary models, from its first single-cylinder bike in 1903 to the modern, large V-twin series products. These V-twin engines have propelled families of Harley-Davidsons with prestigious names such as Electra Glide and Softail that continue to thrill cyclists. Every model has its own story, and the ones told here give a surprisingly human dimension to Harley-Davidsons, and also provide insight into their technical data.
