The turn of the century saw an new industry born as many small motorcycle manufacturers sprang up across America. Harley-Davidson® grew through the next decade, and during World War. I supplied motorcycles for the United States war effort. By the early 1930s, the only surviving American motorcycle companies were Harley-Davidson® and Indian Motorcycle®.

Post-war Harley-Davidson® continued to grow, introducing the iconic Sportster in 1957, the oldest continuous production model in its current lineup, and bringing the Softail™, FLT, and Road King™ models into the family in the '80s and '90s. Harley-Davidson® continues to innovate, introducing Livewire™, the companies first electric motorcycle for model year 2020, a new generation has been born.
