History Of Motorcycle

The inspiration for the earliest motorcycles, and arguably the first motorcycle, was designed and built by the German investors, Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach, in Cannstatt, a city district of Stuttgart, in 1885. It was the first petroleum – powered vehicle ever and, but for the provision of a pair of stabilizing wheels, a motorized bicycle, although they called their invention the Reitwagen. They had not set out to create a vehicle from but to build a simple carriage for the engine wich was the focus of their endeavours.

In the early period of motorcycle history, there were many manufacturers as producers of bicycles which adapted their designs for the new internal combustion engine. As the engines became more powerful dan designs outgrew the bicycle origins, the number of motorcycles producers reduced.

British manufacturers held a dominant position in some markets until the rise of the japans manufacturers (led by Honda) in the late 60s and early 70s who were able to produce designs faster, cheaper, and of better quality. Today, the Japanese manufacturers, Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha dominate the motorcycle industry, although Harley – Davidson still maintains a high degree of popularity in America.
