Some entertaining Harley Davidson trivia near-and-dear to me:

First motorcycle to ever leave the production line at the new HD plant in York, PA. Build date of February 2nd, 1973

1973 Harley Davidson XLH Sportster----Serial #4A6----00000---First ever built.

Sold new at David Laugerman's. Original owner sold it in 75. Second
owner still has it to this day.

Man on far left is Richard Fuller, Sr.....Harley Davidson York Plant production manager. His son one of my best friend's in college.

Look at that assembly line in the background! Seems like a rare sight to see large scale American manufacturing anymore.

Thanks for sharing, I appreciate seeing the history in this photograph.
