Description
The 1920 Harley-Davidson Model J 1000 stands as a testament to early 20th-century engineering, representing a pivotal era in motorcycle development. Equipped with a 989cc (60. 35 cubic inches) V-twin, four-stroke engine, this model was renowned for its durability and performance. The Model J was capable of reaching speeds up to 85 mph (approximately 137 km/ h), a remarkable feat for its time.
This particular motorcycle is distinguished by its authentic sidecar, offering a glimpse into the versatility and utility of motorcycles in the 1920s. The sidecar not only provided additional passenger capacity but also enhanced the motorcycle’s practicality for various uses, from personal transportation to commercial applications.
With 4, 095 miles on the odometer, this Model J comes with English registration papers and a comprehensive set of documentation, including a historic photograph capturing the moment it was unloaded from a boat in England. Such provenance adds significant value and insight into the motorcycle’s storied past
