What would motorcycle history look like if Harley-Davidson had said "yes" to a Wisconsin farmer's revolutionary V-twin engine that made double their horsepower in 1903?
In this video, we uncover the incredible story of Ole Evinrude, a self-taught Norwegian immigrant who built a 7-horsepower V-twin motorcycle engine in his barn while Harley-Davidson was struggling to get 3 horsepower from their single-cylinder. When Harley rejected his advanced design, Evinrude pivoted to marine engines and built an empire that would dominate the outboard motor industry for over a century. This fascinating tale reveals how one farmer's "homemade" engine influenced every V-twin motorcycle and outboard motor that followed, proving that true innovation often comes from the most unexpected places.
