The Harley Davidson '45' was introduced in 1930 by the company in answer to the highly popular 101 Indian Scout, and the excellent Excelsior Super X produced by the Schwinn firm, both successful machines in the 45ci class. The first 45s were not perfect, but the model evolved into arguably the most successful workhorse ever built by the company, production outlasting both competitive models. During World War II, Harley Davidson supplied military WLA models to the American forces, and WLC (Canadian specification) machines to Canadian and other allied forces. In some European countries the Army Harleys are still referred to as 'Liberators'. Our featured '45' is an excellent example, subjected to a quality repaint in the original color scheme, offered in very good riding condition.
