Harley Davidson Legend

The legend of Harley Davidson lives on at the impressive and expansive Harley Davidson Museum in Milwaukee. The museum is situated a few blocks from downtown Milwaukee and whether you are a motorcycle enthusiast or not you will find the history of this great iconic American brand fascinating.
The early beginnings in a backyard shed, the impressive growth and then the near collapse of the company when the Japanese producers entered the USA market makes for a fascinating and absorbing few hours. Harley is now a well established brand across the world and in particular the USA where you see thousands touring the roads and highways of the USA, many of them with two up and loaded with luggage pods touring the vast expansive of the great highways and by ways of the USA. The museum has a Harley shop where you can purchase memorabilia and a great café serving traditional American fare. When in Milwaukee don't miss it!
