The Harley Davidson Company officially began with the achievement of its premier bike in 1903. Unofficially it all began in 1901 when 21-year-old William S. Harley drew up maneuvers for a small engine namely displaced 7.07 cubic inches and had 4-inch flywheels. He charted this engine for use ashore a regular pedal-bicycle skeleton.
By 1903 William Harley had connected with his boyhood friend Arthur Davidson,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as well as Arthur's sibling Walter. They secondhand the machine mart of their friend Henry Melk to complete the prototype of their first engine-powered bike. The engine that powered this prototype was not quite powerful ample to propel the motored-bike up Milwaukee's meek mounds without the rider resorting to pedal power.
The first "real" Harley Davidson Motorcycle was eventually completed with appended aid from variant Davidson sibling labeled William. It had a bigger engine of 24.74 cubic inches with 9-3/4 inch flywheels measuring 28 pounds. The fashionable bike was functional at September 08, 1904, and made its first exterior in a Milwaukee motorcycle marathon.
The enterprise produced 3 motorcycles in 1903, emulated at 3 more in 1904. Production mushroomed to 8 completed cycles in 1905, allowing Walt Davidson to leave his job with the railway and become the company's first full-time hired.

Production proceeded to boost to 450 motorcycles in 1908 emulated by 1,149 in 1909.
Success persisted in the years that followed. The original factory was demolished and replaced by a new 5-story structure of strengthened concrete and ruddy brick. It soon grew to come from two blocks along Juneau Avenue and around the turn on 38th Street. During this time bikes produced by Harley Davidson began to prevail the motorcycle racing hippodrome and production approached 16,284 in 1914.
