Summary

The story of the Harley-Davidson motorcycle includes characters with such names as Knucklehead, Shovelhead, the Low Rider, Electra-Glide, the Silent Grey Fellow, Panhead, and Evolution. While they may sound like comic book superheroes, they have all played major roles in the success of motorcycling's best known marque. Presented here are twenty-four profiles of milestone Harley-Davidsons which have made history on the road and on the track. With their distinct styling, new engines, and progressive technology, these motorcycles have all figured significantly in the history of The Motor Company and the evolution of its product line.
