Big and brawny, loud and
proud, Harley-Davidson is America on two wheels. The 1949 Harley-Davidson EL
Hydra-Glide motorcycle was popular with riders for its modern design,
comfortable ride, and large front brake. After bringing out the refined Panhead
engine the previous year, Harley’s big news for 1949 was the introduction of
"Hydra-Glide" front forks. Replacing the former leading-link forks,
Hydra-Glide was a modern telescopic design that provided greater travel and a
much higher level of riding comfort. The big Harleys were now called
"Hydra-Glide" in reference to the new forks, marking the first time they
carried a name as well as a series designation. Though by this time many
motorcycles were adopting foot-shift transmissions, that too was some time off
for the EL series, which still made use of a hand shifter and foot clutch.
