The good times keep rolling on campus with a new exhibit, a special King of the Baggers Bike Night, Dad’s Day celebrations, car shows and more!


June is jumping at the Harley-Davidson Museum as the city gets set to welcome back summer. Bike Nights are in full swing, and the May 30th edition will be burning rubber as the Harley-Davidson Factory Race Team will be on hand before they take to the track at Road America for the weekend’s King of the Baggers action. Racers Kyle Wyman and James Rispoli will sign autographs, pose for pics and answer fan questions from the Bike Night stage as they share what it’s like to rip 180 m.p.h. on some of the hottest tracks in the country. It’s a Bike Night built for speed that gets hearts racing. Don’t miss it!

MUST-SEE EXHIBITS AND INSTALLATIONS
At Harley-Davidson, design and engineering work together to create machines with big emotional impact. Functional improvements fuel changes in look and feel, yet visual or market desires also shape operating innovations. The process of how ideas move from concept to prototype, and production involves a lot of people and many kinds of materials. From pencil and paper to CAD, clay, and 3-D printing, see how Harley-Davidson design and engineering teams have envisioned iconic products for over 120 years. 

Google Arts & Culture

Take a spin back in time and visit 1950s Virginia when a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle with a sidecar drew quite the crowd. Learn a bit more about this highly customized, chromed-out 1948 Harley-Davidson motorcycle and Goulding Rocket-style sidecar and get a taste of the atomic-era aesthetic.
