Its extreme cleanliness is due to the fact that all moving parts requiring oil are enclosed. As for silence, the Harley-Davidson is known everywhere as the "Silent Gray Fellow." The Ful-Floteing Seat with its three-inch range of action insures to the rider on even the roughest roads. Economy -is only another name for motor efficiency and the official world's economy record which has been held by the Harley-Davidson for the past four years is the best possible evidence of its unusual efficiency and perfect mechanical balance.
