Harley advertisements of the time were quite ambitious in extolling the virtues of the model VL, but early several models had engines with a deficit of horsepower, a bad clutch, mufflers that clogged easily and frames that tended to break. The twopassenger Tri-Hawk had already been in limited production before the Motor Factory decided to take it on as their own ostensibly to fill some exotic niche which had no name.
