If you’re a proud owner of a Harley-Davidson Street® 750, a Heritage Classic, or still looking for your perfect Harley around Atlanta, you’ve probably seen the now-iconic bar and shield design, but it wasn’t always that way. Deep dive into the history of the Harley-Davidson logo with Killer Creek Harley-Davidson.
In 1903, the Davidson brothers, Walter and Arthur founded the company. While they assembled their first bike that year, the first version of the distinctive bar and shield logo didn’t arrive until 1910. And it actually looks very similar to the modern logo — the biggest difference is the shape of the shield.
The Davidson brothers had a solid design, with a logo that’s simple, original, authentic, and easily identifiable! Even if the logo has shifted to one similar to the original, Harley-Davidson’s logo history has had quite a few shake-ups.
While there have been quite a few Harley-Davidson logos over the years, the history is marked by some major changes, including shape, color, inscription design, and more.
