No paypalThe Harley-Davidson Peashooter is single-cylinder motorcycle originally released in XXXX to compete in the hotly contested AMA XX cubic inch class. Indian and Excelsior were the established forces to be reckoned with in the smaller, single-cylinder racing world but Harley decided to dive in and compete ??� and also sell line of smaller-engined road bikes.The market for big twins was strong in the XXXXs, but there was larger (though less lucrative) market for simpler, smaller motorcycles. Harley-Davidson had started out making single-cylinder bikes but since the advent of their big twins, they??�d paid lot less attention to the genre ??� but XXXX would see this all change.Countries like Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Rhodesia, and regions like Europe, were more interested in economical and less expensive motorcycles ??� so new XXXcc Harley-Davidson could potentially open up new markets for the American marque.In XXXX Harley-Davidson introduced the Model and the Model B, both single-cylinder motorcycles with XXXcc (XX cubic inch) engines. Both were sidevalve-engined (the had magneto, and the had battery/coil), for those who wanted to go racing the models were also offered with an OHV engine offering XX% more power ??� in Model AA and Model BA designations. The nickname ???Peashooter??? was given to the bike as reference to its unusual exhaust popping sounds ??� side effect of the performance tuning done on the OHV race bikes.
