I'm wondering is anyone can help identify these motorcycles?
Here's the only information I have:
1) I'm told they are both Harley Davidson Police motorcycles.
2) I'm told they are both Police...but I dont know.
3) I'm told the one on the steps of a house was taken in 1925...?
Can anyone help me narrow down what year the bikes are? Can you confirm if they are Harley Davidsons? We'd like to put these photos up in our local Public Education room and I'd like to list what the motorcycles are before we do so.
Sorry about the quality of the photos and sorry I don't have any more information than what I've just listed.
The second picture is a Harley Servi-Car. The picture is pretty rough but it looks like it has the hydra-glide forks not a springer setup so it should be '58 or newer.
*edit*
The first picture is an 1920's J series Harley.

Reason: First Picture information added.
IMO, the second bike is a servicar, but if you look close, it is right hand shift, and the emblems date it from 40-47. Sorry, but i'm no help with the first pic.
