Default Harley's Smallest Delivery Vehicle

Most everyone has heard of the scooter that Harley produced in the 1960's called the Topper. What you might not know is that Harley made both sidecars and package trucks for these machines. Just imagine the fun you could have around town with one of these set ups.

Yep. I've seen a couple of them. Nice little rigs. The biggest problem with the Topper, in general, was it's two stroke engine. I always thought had Harley put a nice little 4 stroke, maybe 15/18 horse engine in there, they could kept going long after Vespa and the others died.
Actually, they should consider re-introducing it today.
