That's also why their engines are slower than Indians, as well as less fuel efficient (not that fuel really matters on a motorcycle).

Almost? The Harley-Davidson motorised bicycle was, in fact, a motorised bicycle!
Benz had been making them earlier, but while Benz had good engines, he had no idea what made a bicycle work. There had been experiments with rotary wheel-engines, trikes, Benz came back with the Patent-Motorwagen, etc.
Millet's design of the 1890s set the scene for how to do it, however.
The Thomas Auto-Bi is even more obviously a bike with a motor bolted on it! By the time of the FN Four, it had become pretty ridiculous, but people wanted power.
Oh, and I best not leave this without mentioning the Roper Steam Velocipede, which is exactly what you think it is.

lol, nowadays HD has patented the sound their bikes make.
They don't have to be that loud but they go out of their way to give each bike that brand sound.

Almost? It's exactly what they were.
Electric cars don't meet my needs (yet) but I would still prefer an ebike to this old Harley though.

It was originally advertised as being "so quiet you cannot hear it across the street"

This shows that in the beginning motorcycles where almost bicycles with engines.
If you would make this today no one will call it a motorcycle.

You are correct, after reading the whole article, it was mentioned that it was indeed a shrapnel.
