This rare sketch of possible passenger seat designs for the Harley-Davidson Rocker concept bike shows that the entire process all starts with pen, ink, and paper.

The Harley-Davidson Powertrain Operations Plant is the home of the company's signature V-Twin engine, which is detailed in these complex blueprints. The completed engines are sent to bike assembly plants .
