In the 1940's, the Harley-Davidson once again answered the patriotic call and sent its motorcycles overseas to aid in the war effort.   In 1941, civilian production on the motorcycle was mostly suspended as the company turned out motorcycles for the war.   With their commitment and excellence, Harley-Davidson received the Army-Navy "E" award.   In November of 1945, civilian production once again started.   And when in 1947 the Panhead was driven out of the factory, Harley Davidson became known as "The American Motorcycle".   Harley-Davidson purchased the old A.O. Smith Propeller Plant in 1947 and used it as a machine shop.   The parts made here were shipped back to the old factory on Juneau Avenue for final assembly.   In 1949, hydraulic front brakes were introduced on the Hydra-Glide models.

Harley was forced to endure another bad period throughout the 1950's.   The Brittish owned 40 % of the motorcycle market with their Triumph.   In 1957 Harley introduced the Sportster, the fastest Harley ever.   A great bike.   It was fast, nimble, and easy to ride.   Just like the English motorcycle industry, Harley stuck to its expertise, style and character.

Due to the enormous attack on the motorcycle market from the Japanese, the English disappeared without a trace and the American were almost dead.   Even the Shovelhead couldn't save Harley.   1969 Harley merged with the American Machine and Foundry Company (AMF).   The result of this decision was that the quality decreased enormously and the Super Glide and the SLCR Caféracer of 1970's got a bad name.

The beginning of the 1970's saw a revolution of the Harley-Davidson.   In 1971, the cruiser was born.   This machine united a sporty front end with the frame and power train of the FL series.   1973 saw the move of assembly operations to a new 400,000 square foot plant in York, Pennsylvania.   The year 1975 was the first of four consecutive years that the Harley-Davidson won the AMA Grand National Championships in dirt track racing.   In 1977, the FXS Low Rider and the FLHS Electra Glide Sport were introduced to the public.   The FXS featured a special lower seat position which resulted in the distinguishing term Low Rider.   The FLHS was a low cost base line FLH Electra Glide with modifications intended to make the model sportier.

The beginning of the 1980's saw another change in the partnership of the engine and transmission.   In 1980, the FLT model was born with a 5-speed transmission hard bolted to the engine.   Also this year, the drive train was replaced with a Kevlar belt.   In 1981 senior members of Harley-Davidson bought back Harley-Davidson Motor Company from AMF.   In 1982 Harley-Davidson enacted the Materials as Needed (MAN) application in their production.   This would cut production costs and improve the quality of the parts.   In 1983 the group H.O.G was founded and became the largest factory-sponsored motorcycle club in the world.

In 1984 the 1340 cc V-twin engine was introduced, seven years in the making.   With this engine was able to create a modern motorcycle, which was still a Harley Davidson.   Also this year, the Softail model became available.    The Softail was most primarily distinguishable by hidden rear shock absorbers.   In 1987 Harley-Davidson began its "Buy Back Program" which offered full trade in value within two years on certain models.   Also at this time, the Harley-Davidson Company obtained a place on the New York Stock Exchange for those interested in taking a financial stake in the company.   In 1988 Harley-Davidson celebrated their 85th Anniversary in Milwaukee, an event that brought forth 60,000 aficionados of the Harley-Davidson.   At the end of this revolutionary decade for Harley-Davidson, the FXSTS Springer Softail model was introduced into the lineup.   The FXSTS Springer Softail was a modern day recreation of the 1940's Harley-Davidson.   It had the classic biker look with the 1340 cc engine symbolizing the new era of Harley-Davidson.
