William S. Harley completed the blueprint drawing of an engine that he wanted to fit on a bicycle in 1901. Two years later, the very first production Harley-Davidson motorcycle was made available to the public in 1903. Harley, along with Arthur Davidson had built a machine that was meant to race. Harley-Davidson has come a long way since then and has a stellar fan following around the globe. The American motorcycle manufacturer is marking its 115th anniversary with nine special motorcycles. Take a look.
