Harley-Davidson Topper
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Topper was the only motor scooter that the Harley-Davidson Motor Company ever produced.[1] It was only produced between 1960 and 1965.[2]
The Topper utilized a CVT transmission, as used on most modern scooters produced today. The engine was a 165cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine requiring a premixed gasoline/oil mixture. The starter was of the rope-recoil type similar to lawnmowers or the Lambretta E model.
The front body, front fender and floorboards of the Topper were made of stamped steel, and the engine cover and body were made of chopper gun-sprayed fiberglass.
