A little about Harley Davidson

Harley-Davidson-Medium-Eagle-Patch-Brown-450x320Few could argue that Harley-Davidson is a name recognized -- and revered -- the world over. The company doesn't just produce American motorcycles; it produces an American legend.

The Milwaukee based company was founded in 1901 by designer, Bill Harley, and Arthur Davidson, a pattern maker. Starting from scratch, both financially and technically, they enlisted two other members of the Davidson family, Walter, a mechanic, and William, a tool maker, and with the use of borrowed equipment, they started their project in their spare time.

In 1903, a wooden building was erected in the Davidson family's backyard, and their first factory was in operation. In 1904, production output was up to eight machines a year, and in 1906, fifty.

The company was incorporated in 1907, and within ten years, they were producing 18,000 machines per year.

In 2003, Harley-Davidson celebrated 100 years of building just what it started out to make: distinctly American motorcycles.
