Harley Davidson

History Of Harley

After 1913 the majority of bikes produced by Harley-Davidson would be V-Twin models. In 1912, Harley-Davidson introduced their patented “Ful-Floteing Seat”, which was suspended by a coil spring inside the seat tube. The spring tension could be adjusted to suit the rider’s weight. More than 3 inches (76 mm) of travel was available. Harley-Davidson would use seats of this type until 1958. By 1913, the yellow brick factory had been demolished and on the site a new 5-story structure had been built. Begun in 1910, the factory with its many additions would take up two blocks along Juneau Avenue and around the corner on 38th Street. Despite the competition, Harley-Davidson was already pulling ahead of Indian and would dominate motorcycle racing after 1914. Production that year swelled to 16,284 machines.
