Presented in an encyclopedia format, it features vivid photography, insightful commentary, and essential production specs, making it the top resource for devoted Harley enthusiasts worldwide. When envisioning a motorcycle, many picture a Harley-Davidson, as the brand embodies the archetypal bike that resonates deeply with the essence of motorcycling. Philosopher Kant's concept of a priori knowledge reflects this connection; a Harley-Davidson is the motorcycle that aligns with the innate feelings of what a bike should be. Acclaimed historian Mitchel Bergeron explores every motorcycle produced by the company, from the first prototype to modern models like the CVO Electra Glides and Softails. Notable models such as the Knucklehead, Panhead, Sportster, and V-Rod are all included. This authoritative text, enriched with both contemporary and historical photography, along with archival marketing materials, offers a complete reference. The Harley-Davidson Source Book celebrates the most storied and celebrated motorcycles ever created, solidifying its status as the ultimate encyclopedia of the brand.
