No other motorcycle manufacturer in the world has managed to create such a devoted following among its disciples or market its image so successfully. The sound of a thudding V-twin engine is sufficient to proclaim the approach of the great American dream machine. Harleys are more than simple modes of transportation; they genuinely embody a lifestyle and represent a design style that is uniquely American. In this beautifully designed, compact handbook, motorcycle historian Tod Rafferty reviews the history of the Harley-Davidson and selects 100 landmark machines that best exemplify the Harley style. Illustrated in color throughout, with more than 400 specially commissioned "cut-out" and detail photos of the bikes, plus a wealth of Harley memorabilia!

How a small book can be BIG !,
By A Customer
This review is from: 100 Harleys (Paperback)
Although this is a very small book (size that is) the contents are fantastic. For a low price, you get a book with nice photo's and details about the changes from year to year about the different models. Very nice for your library and somehow you keep grabbing the little book...
