Harley-Davidson survived the Great Depression (one of only two American motorcycle manufacturers to do so) largely due to the development of it's highly innovative 1936 EL model which was successfully marketed to numerous police departments around the world.

Please note: The 1936 EL has a dry weight of 515 lbs., not curb weight, as stated in the video.
