Harley-Davidson Other description
In 1937 the AMA had established the new racing category, class C, or "same as you can buy" for motorcycles. The goal the Motorcycle Association had in mind was to get private owners back into the competition. The motorcycles entered in Class C had to begin life as stock machines purchased out of the front door of dealerships. This class was limited to 45 cubic inch or 750CC side valve engines for flat track and road racing events. These regulations favored the Harley Davidson and Indian's side valve models over the English and European OHV higher performance bikes.
The rules initially required competitors to ride their bikes to the events, so Harley sold their WLDR fully equipped with all road equipment-finders, brakes, generator and headlights. The factory offered support and encouraged privateers through its dealers, with a full array of parts and pieces for these machines as well as the very latest in research and development for the WLDR.
This 1937 WLDR was set up as a factory racer. It boasts a rebuilt engine with factory "racing kit", which includes big finned cylinders that feature larger intake valves and intake ports that allow the use of the M53's Bombsite's venturie carburetor , heavy duty valve springs, racing flywheels and high lift cams. It has a rebuilt two bolt transmission with an early narrow clutch and primary with a pre 41' chassis, 18 inch wheels and narrow brakes. It has a WRTT 2 into 1 road race exhaust system, and a wico magneto factory racing ignition.

Harley-Davidson and an American Hero
Fri, 07 Dec 2012As motorcyclists, we’re drawn to the freedom two wheels represent; just man, machine and the open road. The feeling rings true today as it did 72 years ago, when Wallace Van Sandt, of Birmingham, Alabama, took delivery of his 1941 Harley-Davidson WLD Special Sport Solo, purchased new in 1940 for $365 (roughly $5800 in today’s money) by his father as a high school graduation gift. The WLD Special Sport Solo was a ringer in its day.
