There’s nothing quite like watching a moto archaeologist at work, and if you don’t know what I mean, then you clearly haven’t watched any videos on the Wheels Through Time YouTube channel. Whether you already know something about early American motorcycles or you’re just always interested in learning more about motorcycle history, the WTT channel is a must watch. Matt Walksler’s enthusiasm, depth of knowledge, and eagerness to share that knowledge with the world is pretty infectious, and every episode is a joy.
Remember the 2023 Mecum Las Vegas auction? As Walksler explains, he and WTT went there to find something unique and interesting—and what they came home with and show off in this video does a whole lot to fit that particular brief. By now, you’ve probably heard plenty about the seemingly endless rivalry between Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycles, both in competition and in showrooms. The modern-day versions of both OEMs like to play up that history, too—and, I mean, if it sells bikes, it’s easy to understand why.
