A Restored 1949 Harley WR/WRTT

Introduced in 1929 as the model D and as a competitor to Indian’s successful 750cc sidevalve Scout v-twin, the Harley-Davidson Model WL’s popularity (better known as the ’45’, signifying its capacity in cubic inches) skyrocketed when the USA’s entered into WW2, creating an unprecedented demand for a military version or the WLA. A model known as WLC was the Canadian version of the motorcycle. The WL solo’s 750cc flathead sidevalve engine would turn out to be one of the longest running Harley motors, ending its days in the 1973 3-wheeled Servicar and eventually evolving into the Sportster Flathead, Ironhead and Evolution motors.
