The Encyclopedia of the Harley-Davidson by Mac Mcdiarmid
A visual catalogue of every major (and minor) Harley model ever produced, from the first single of 1903 to the VR1000 racing superbike of 2ist century. Every machine is illustrated in colour photography with detailed information on technical specifications, key design elements, engineering standards, notable attributes and the particular history of the make. The numerous machines featured range from the classic to the obscure. The directory includes not only the instantly familiar Glides, Sportsters, Low Riders and Racers, but also lesser-known vehicles that include the mass-produced lightweight singles of the 60's and 70's, short-lived scooter models, and the oddity that is the Harley Snowmobile. A glossary is provided to help with some of the more technical jargon, together with a brief explanation to finding your way around Harley-Davidson's cryptic model codes.
Mac McDiarmid is an internationally renowned motorcycle journalist and photographer who has ridden Harley-Davidson motorbikes in four continents. A former editor of Bike magazine, he has seven previous books to his credit and is also a regular contributor to motorcycle magazines in over a dozen countries. His biking career began in 1970 and since then he has ridden machines as diverse as Jawa Ice Speedway bikes, Rover V-8 specials and factory Norton Racers. He admits, however, that few experiences can match that of thundering a Harley-Davidson across the surreal moonscapes of Utah.
