Harley Davidson Gopinath

 

 

The heartthrob of millions – a dream bike – the story started in 1901 with plans of a 20 year old  William S. Harley for a small engine with a displacement of 7.07 cubic inches (116 cc) and four-inch (102 mm) flywheels designed for use in a regular pedal-bicycle frame. Over the next two years, he and his  friend Arthur Davidson worked on their motor-bicycle. 

Harley-Davidson, Inc. (H-D, or simply Harley) is an American motorcycle manufacturer headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Founded in 1903, it is one of two major American motorcycle manufacturers to survive the Great Depression along with its historical rival, Indian Motorcycles.
