History of Excelsior-Henderson Motorcycles

The following pages contain a brief history of the Excelsior, Henderson, and Excelsior-Henderson motorcycles, both past and present. Various company documents, press releases, and magazine articles are also available.

The complete history of the company resides variously in texts on the history of motorcycling, in the product documents and meager records of the early manufacturers, in racing records of the times, and in the memories of those who took part in the first great era of American motorcycling. In highlighting the history of Excelsior-Henderson,  we have relied on the best information available and we resolve issues of fact by agreeing with the majority of research where conflict exists1.
