7 Obscure Facts You May Not Know About Harley-Davidson
by Bassim Girgis

 

Very Interesting read.

 

This is always my favorite "obscure" Harley fact: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rikuo_Motorcycle

 

Pretty cool and most, I never knew. The jump thing, I kind of knew.

 

Thanks.

 

There also was a H-D with a trailing link front suspension. It was in the 30's and only for export models.

 

Would have been interesting if the Nova project was funded to this day.

 

Some of these I had seen or heard before, but still very interesting. A lot of them can be found at the Museum in Milwaukee, it was particularly weird to see that big Goldwing-looking bike from the article on display there. Also the 440 AMF Harley snowmobile is a cool piece of history that most here have probably heard or can remember. They did some weird things in those AMF days.

The museum was a fun visit.
