The Harley-Davidson Book - Refueled presents the history, lifestyle, and unique attitude towards life of the American motorcycle brand in a 32-page expanded and revised new edition.

What comes to mind first when you hear the name Harley-Davidson? Freedom, speed, roaring engines, and passion on two wheels. No other motorcycle brand in the world has the almost mystical reputation of a Harley-Davidson. For over a hundred years, this American classic from Milwaukee has shaped the motorcycle world. The fascination revolves around the typical 45-degree V2 engine. While single-cylinder engines have come and gone from the Harley lineup over time, the two-cylinder engine is its defining style. Like a sculpture, it sits deep within the intricate tubular steel frame—an aesthetic revelation... and an auditory one too. Once you've heard the sound of an early "knucklehead," you're addicted for life! This is a book about the power and beauty of the engines and the elegance and strength of these machines from Lake Michigan. It is a homage to the flatheads, knuckleheads, panheads, ironheads, the shovels and evolutions, and the contemporary fuel injectors. And at the same time, it is a presentation of the water-cooled V2, the Street models, the electrified Live-Wire, and the new Harley motorcycle genres: the naked bike "Bronx," the large enduro "Pan America," and medium-heavy e-bikes.
