    UMG... I've been involved with Harleys for over 50 years, this is the first time I've ever seen one complete!

    Matt I met your dad a couple of times, he treated me like he knew me for years...I'm happy you adsorbed the knowledge from your father...The museum and history is in good hands...I hope you can groom another generation to carry the torch for you father and the history of American Motorcycles.

    I’m 71 yoa; I was ridding Harleys at 16 yoa, a 1952 K 750 cc side valve (KITT) and a 45 cubic inch ‘45 W. Fork years you and your Dad have been my inspiration to travel back to my youth and relive those thunderous V twin memories; thank you so very much!

      Yep, 1969, 9 years old and my "cool" aunt took me to see Easyrider. Got a 500 Trophy at 15, first Harley at 18, and never been without a HD since. Indians have been in there too!

  • @joezambrano696
    @joezambrano696 Рік тому +1

    I'd say the best part of all these bikes is to sit there and just go through the whole bike trying to understand the ingenuity of the machine how everything was created and put together and make it work to take an idea and bring it to life I just got into the hobby of building motorized bycicles and it takes a lot of work to put these bikes together the best part for me is to modify parts and make it all work the best part in the end is the ride to hear the engine

    I love the museum! In 2019 a group of us were on a road trip from Wisconsin and in the area however we were running late. You guys stayed open late for us to take a look at the museum. This trip was cut short to race back home to Milwaukee for a job interview. Keeping in with the motorcycle themed week, I got a job a job at the birthplace of many of your displays. I hope to come back and spend a day at the museum in 2021.

    A Very Classy Bike and i loved the story along with it too! Fast forward 20 years, and i had the BMW version at only 500cc to ride to scholl every day! That was a cool Bike as well. 6 v system, touring model with a 6 1/2 gallon fuel tank , an oil type air cleaner on it, open drive shaft on it, two up seat, no spark advance or foot clutch but a winner none-the -less.

    Hey Matt!! This bike is incredible and I don't ever remember seeing it or if I saw it I didn't realize all the cool history about it being a NYC 'Indian copy'.
    BTW I wanted to say I'm just so impressed with all the videos you and Chris are doing lately and how well you're covering the intricacies of Harley (and American v-twin) history
    and how well you explain how this particular model emulates the police Indian!
    Keep up the legacy Matt brother, being Lifetime Members we're so proud to stay involved (as much as we can) with you and the WTT Team!

      I have an original military technical manual for the US war bikes dated 25 September 1942, in it it has all the exploded views and all the service information (ie piston to wall clearances etc etc) to maintain the Harley 45 inch war bikes, the Harley opposed cylinder shaft drive war bikes that only 1,000 were made and never went into service, the Indian Scout war bikes and the experimental Indian shaft drive bikes where the motor was turned sideways in the fashion of a Moto Guzzi.
      Apparently at the time of printing the military had intentions of pressing the Harley and Indian shaft drive models into service although that never did happen.
