Panhead, Shovelhead, Springer, Electra Glide terms that evoke the character of a two-wheeled legend. Hariey-Davidson machines have come to represent the essential character of the American muscle bike and will always be associated with the freedom of wide open spaces, of miles of open freeway, of a continent waiting to be discovered.
This superbly illustrated volume is a fitting tribute to the Harley mystique, describing the machines that have thrilled generations of bikers and enthusiasts since the turn of the century. Individual chapters explain the growth of the Hariey-Davidson company and detail the key machines that have played their part in American automotive history. Dramatic colour photographs, many never published before, display the bikes in immaculate glory, showing form and detail in a symphony of chrome and steel.
However, Harleys can be more than just factory-produced bikes. Enthusiasts have created a whole new concept in motor engineering. The custom bike allows the owner to represent his or her ideas in actual hardware and to create a bike to unique specification. Shapes are changed dramatically, components added, power increased and imaginative colour schemes applied.
This superb book shows some of the more startling and stylish creations produced, and will inspire and encourage budding customizers. For those not lucky 1 enough to own a Harley, this
1 emotive volume is perhaps the next best thing.
