History Of BIkes

There is no real information on when biking started but the commercial use of bike has been not so long. 



the first bicycle















Mid 1800s:

The development started with bicycles which were simply sat on and paddled with the rider’s feet. By the mid-1800s, pedals were developed. The American Roper steam-powered cycle appeared in 1869. It was driven by a charcoal-fired and twin-cylinder engine, this marked the beginning of motorcycle. At the same time a Frenchman, L G Perreaux developed a similar machine. So, 1869 has been an
1879
important year in the history for the birth of the motorcycle. However, both the above models were not useful for long distance and the heat of steam was directly upon the rider.

Note:  The first motorcycles were wooden framed with metal-rimmed wooden wheels and had the nickname boneshakers.
Late  1800s:
Gottlieb Daimler, a German scientist, is claimed the true father of motorcycle even though the early steam-powered inventions initiated it all. The German invented a petrol driven, single cylinder bike in 1885. The engine was concealed within a machine made of wood in the middle below the saddle. It had four wheels and two smaller wheels helped the rider keep the bike standing without any effort of
1900s bike
the rider. It ran as fast as 12mph to the maximum so it cant be said that fast but with the time and limitations of development and its complex design that is quite good actually.

Thats not all : Gottlieb Daimler was also a pioneer of the motor car and combustion engine. 

Earley 1900s:
The development of motorcycle saw a experimental stage at the end of the 1800 so there was no money making stuff in these primitive machines. To an exception, two frenchmen, Count Albert de
1950s bikes
Dion and Georges Bouton introduced a engine that would begin a new era in motorcycling, at around 1895. It was a  single cylinder engine and could be fitted to a pedal cycle frame. This helped the upcoming motorcycle manufacturers to make the motorcycle more widely available during the early 1900s. 
Note: De Dion  was an aristocratic Count while Bouton was a labourer.

Upto mid 1900s:
1930s bike
Within a decade, motorcycles were prodeuced in large numbers for commercial use. The largest in the world that time, the American manufacturer Indian Motorcycle Company was producing over 20,000 bikes a year by 1913. In 1920s, the British motorcycles tooke over like the Triumph which had a production as large as 30,000 bikes each year. By mid-1930s economic crisis gripped America and  Europe and the motorcycle industry was brought to its knees. The fact that, in 1920, the USA exported 38,000 motorcycles but by 1930, it was just over 10,000 also tells how badly the industry suffered.

1950/60/70s:
1950s bike

After that, most of the motorcycles manufactured were used for war till the second world war lasted. After 1950s, the golden age of motorcycle began, Britain being the biggest manufacturer and produced the top brands of motorbikes like Triumph, Royal Enfield, Norton and Matchless. However by 1960s,
the Japanese machines stepped in and dominated the
market for many years ahead with names like
Honda at the top. It also dominated the 125cc and 250cc
1950s bike
Grand Prix racing. It slowly swallowed all british
manufacturers by 1970s. At that time, the Japanese
manufacturer Yamaha was head to head with
Harley-Davidson of USA though Harley stood above on all odds.

Late 1900s and further:
Harley of 1990
At the last decades of the 20th century the motorcycles were a part of human race and not just a means of transport. Fun and function became the goals of new enthusiasts in motorcylce industry. This led to the development of KTM’s racers, one of its kind, an off-road bike, superbikes like Suzuki’s 200mph Hayabusa and the Harleys with their classic looks. Triumph made a comeback and the future of bike industry has lots of lights. the two strokes are now virtually abolished and the two wheels are on a roll with many new models.

Believe it or not, in 2004, Honda’s annual worldwide motorcycle sales was over 10 million units. They have simply gone overboard and they have right for that who can stop them.

U.S. Army on Harley Davidson


Harley Davidson VRSCA - V - Rod The name Harley Davidson is quiet popular when it comes to motorbike. Started in the first decade of 20th century, it survived the great depression and is still producing some of the best bikes in the world. In 1906, Harley and the Davidson brothers built their first factory on Chestnut Street (later Juneau Avenue). They came with a first lot of 150 motorbikes in 1907. However, what boomed their sales is a interesting fact to know.

Harley Davidson



Harley used by the armies
It was actually the World War I that started in 1914. At that time, the automobile did not own the roads and Motorcycles came in to fill the gaps as the two wheeler was dependable, reliable and fast. In the war, it was used quiet well by American and European armies to gather reconnaissance, deliver messages and also to fight their enemies. In 1917, roughly one-third of all Harley-Davidson motorcycles produced were sold to the U.S. military which shows how big a market the War created for Harley brothers. Moreover, in 1918, that figure rose to 50 percent. By the end of the war, it is estimated that the Army used some 20,000 motorcycles and no doubt most of them Harley-Davidsons. I would really love to own one some day.

Some Hot Bikes

Ducati Street Fighter and Street Fighter S
Motorcycle Show 2009

Unlike the other bikes Ducati has been making for years, this Italian motorcycle manufacturer is now producing some rides that don't require a spine of steel and titanium wrists to enjoy. And that's largely because most of their buyers are, yes, getting older and don't go for hardcore street bikes like they did when they were a bit more spry. To that end, the mighty Streetfighter and Streetfighter S position the rider upright. And these bikes are feather-light at 370 or so pounds. This pair also feature "DTC"---Ducati Traction Control---the better to keep you perpendicular.

Vectrix VX-1
Motorcycle Show 2009

This good-looking all-electric scooter is motorcycle-sized and motorcycle-heavy at 515 pounds, with a 60-inch wheelbase and 30-inch seat height. The VX-1 is highway legal, though you won't be passing any Vettes or Vipers--the top speed is just 62-mph. Still, it can accelerate to that speed in 7.5 seconds. And that's not too shabby. Though it's rather large--similar in size to the Suzuki Burgman--Vectrix plans include a lower, narrower seat for smaller riders.

2009 Honda Fury
Motorcycle Show 2009

The Fury is a gorgeous, sporty offering from the normally meat-and-potatoes Honda. This bike resembles a customized chopper, but, in this case, Honda's mass production and warranty covers stuff that Joe's Custom Bike Shop might not be able to, or want to handle as the miles roll on. Its 1312 cc, liquid-cooled 52 degree V-twin make it a fiery ride, and a wide 200-series rear tire is coupled with a skinny 21-inch front wheel--for that all-important custom stance.

Victory Street Vision Anniversary
Motorcycle Show 2009

The Street Vision is, plainly speaking, an enormous bike. Even the front foot rests look as though they could accommodate Shaq's sneakers with room to spare. With its predatory triangular face, ant-segment-like gas tank and 106-cubic-inch Freedom V-twin coupled with a skinny seat, this bike announces your presence on the road like few others. They're rare, too; Victory's only turning out 100 of these anniversary machines.

Can-Am Spyder
Motorcycle Show 2009

Though this trike is officially classified as a motorcycle, it's really a combination of bike, ATV and snowmobile--with all the fun of those rides and far less physical peril. You see, since it's a trike, the rider doesn't have to balance, like one does on a two-wheeler. It's powered by an 1125-cc, Rotax V-Twin dual overhead cam engine making 107 hp and 77 lb.-ft. of torque. For 2009, the Spyder SE5 model features a new automatic gearbox, too.
