Default Any 1903 or 1904 HD's still around?

The oldest HD I have ever seen that is in a museum is a 1905. (and I only saw a picture of that)Does anyone know if any of the 1903 or 1904 models survived? I know there were very few produced. Just curious.

Looks like there's at least one:


AMA Motorcycle Heritage Museum near Columbus, Ohio

"This rare example is a 1903 Harley-Davidson single--essentially a bicycle with an engine. It's what started the company on its 100-year journey through wars, depressions, changes of ownership and the ups and downs of motorcycle racing."

They don't get any older than this ONE

It lives in Milwaukee, WI. and they are building it a real big house now.

I think it would be cool to be able to go back in time and pick one of these bad boys up. Could you imagine having one of these in pristine condition? Then I'd go pick up a 1953 and 1959 Corvette, as well as stock in Intel, Microsoft, and HD in the 80's......

I saw the 1903 that HD has while I was in Milwaulkee for the 95th Anniversary of Harley.

Regards,
