Comics fans? Everything You Need To Know About Captain America’s Motorcycles
Ever since his introduction in 1941, in the heat of World War II, Captain America’s name has been synonymous with the most iconic
motorcycle brand, Harley-Davidson.
Captain America's most recognizable vehicle, is a custom Harley-Davidson motorcycle. Captain America while living in Brooklyn Heights stored the motorcycle in a service garage operated by Richard Dumbrowski. Captain America often kept his motorcycle in his van and took it wherever he traveled. The cycle suffered a head-on collision, but apparently was restored to service.
Captain America has continued to use motorcycles on numerous adventures. Most recently, it was revealed that he stored a motorcycle on the roof of his Brooklyn apartment. This particular motorcycle does not have the distinctive red, white, and blue paint job of the one created from him by Jonathan Coulson. It is undetermined if Cap's present motorcycle is the original custom Harley-Davidson from Coulson
His love for the motorcycle brand is also on full display in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In Captain America: The First Avenger, Cap rides a 1942 Harley-Davidson WLA Liberator into battle against The Red Skull.
In The Avengers, Captain Rogers switched to a 2012 Harley-Davidson Softail Slim as his personal form of transportation.
However, it was relegated to a personal means of transport; it wasn’t a part of his mission equipment.
In Captain America: The Winter Soldier and movies that follow in the MCU timeline, he rides a Harley-Davidson Street 750.
