Attention bikers, hogs and Harley fans: A Harley-Davidson Museum is opening July 12 in the iconic company’s hometown, Milwaukee, Wis.
The museum has a collection of 400 bikes, including bikes that belonged to celebrities such as Evel Knievel and Elvis Presley, along with a motorcycle from 1903. That was the year that two young friends from Milwaukee, William S. Harley and Arthur Davidson, first made their product available to the public.
Also on display will be historic items such as posters, ads, clothes, trophies and accessories that tell the story of the company. Visitors can sit on 10 vintage and contemporary motorcycles in the final gallery.
For tickets or more information, go to www.harley-davidson.com and click on “museum.”
Admission is $16 for adults, $12 for seniors and students and $10 for children ages 5-17.
