History Trivia:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Have you heard of the company AMF?\u00a0 This is the same company know for bowling alleys.\u00a0 Did you know that they owned Harley Davidson for a period?\u00a0 \u00a0American Machine and Foundry (AMF)<\/a> bought the nearly bankrupt Harley Davidson Motorcycle Company in 1969 for an undisclosed amount of money. AMF operated the company until 1981. In 1981, AMF sold the company to a group of 13 investors led by Vaughn Beals and Willie G. Davidson for $80 million.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Who invented the “chopper”?\u00a0 It seems as if Paul Jaray<\/a> is the person.\u00a0 In 1921 he built the J-Rad bicycle.\u00a0 This was an attempt to come up with an aerodynamic riding position. His bicycle used a treadle-cable drive instead of pedals. Only about 2000 of these were built.<\/p>\n
