Do Harley Davidson Motorcycles Have Automatic Transmissions?
Last Updated Apr 5, 2020 2:01:04 AM ET
Harley Davidson does not make motorcycles with automatic transmissions. There are aftermarket companies, such as Walters Manufacturing, that fabricate and install automatic transmissions on 1999-2005 Harley Davidson Dyna Glide motorcycles.
The Harley Davidson Motor Company was founded by William S. Harley and Arthur Davidson in 1903. The first model in 1901 was a failed attempt at adding a 7.07 cubic inch motor to a pedal bicycle frame. The next attempt was made in 1903 using a 24.74 cubic inch motor. This became the predecessor of the Harley Davidson motorcycles seen today. Harley Davidson had an annual revenue of $5.26 billion in 2013.
