Stanley Stankos' 1948 91-inch Custom Harley-Davidson, Blue Island, ILL.

Much modified mill feature of midwest Harley-Davidson.

At first glance Stanley Stankos' 1948 Harley-Davidson, seen around the streets of Blue Island, Ill., looks like a mildly modified chop job, not too radical, still a very practical street machine. And that's just what it is, but, looking a little closer, especially at the engine, you can see that there've been some changes made!

1978 Harley-Davidson XLS - the only thing this one can't do is make you anonymous

Harley-Davidson has never forgotten the basic relationship between man and motorcycle.

A great deal of that relationship has to do with what the motorcycle does for the man. This is not a bike for those with a fondness for the assembly line look that inspired the term, "Universal Japanese Motorcycle." We don't want you to blend in. We want you to stand out...
