Motorcycle

Sergio and Austin



was**The first gasoline-powered motorcycle** s invented in 1885 by **Gottlieb Daimler, a German engineer**. He attached a four-stroke piston engine to a wooden bicycle frame. For the next few years, motorcycles remained largely experimental. During the early 1900's, they developed into useful vehicles. Today's motorcycles have the same general appearance as earlier models. But modern bikes are easier to handle, and they have stronger frames, more powerful engines, and more efficient brakes.
 * Motorcycle** is a two- or three-wheeled vehicle powered by a gasoline engine mounted midway between the front and rear wheels

, //«DYM luhr, GOT leeb»,// (1834-1900), a German engineer, developed an internal-combustion engine light enough to power an automobile. He and another German engineer, Wilhelm Maybach, produced a motorized bicycle in 1885 and a motorized carriage in 1886. Daimler founded the Daimler Motor Company in 1890. In 1901, this company began producing cars under the name Mercedes. The Daimler and Benz companies merged to form Daimler-Benz in 1926. The company’s name is now Daimler AG. Daimler was born on March 17, 1834, in Schorndorf, Germany. He died on March 6, 1900, in Stuttgart, Germany.
 * Daimler, Gottlieb**

born in Schorndorf, Württemberg. In 1870 Daimler assisted in the development of the Otto gasoline engine, and he later became director of the factory in which it was produced. After 1882 he devoted himself to the construction of light, high-speed gasoline and oil engines. In 1887 he patented the Daimler engine, a high-speed internal-combustion engine that was an important step in the development of the automo A //motorcycle// <> is like a bicycle with an engine. However, a motorcycle, which is sometimes called a motorbike or a bike, is much heavier and stronger than a bicycle. People ride motorcycles for fun, for sport, and as a way of getting around. A motorcycle usually has two wheels and an engine that runs on gasoline. The engine is between the front and back wheels.

There are two main kinds of motorcycles. One kind is made for riding on streets and roads. This kind includes street bikes and touring bikes. The other kind is made for riding on rougher surfaces. Trail bikes, for example, can travel on rough roads, climb hills, and cross streams. Their tires have deep grooves that grip rough surfaces. Motorcycles have tires that are somewhat like the tires on cars. The tires have grooves that help keep them from slipping when going around turns. Motorcycles have front and rear brakes. The rider controls the motorcycle with hand controls and foot pedals. Smaller machines that are like motorcycles include motor scooters, minibikes, and motorbikes. Mopeds are small motorbikes. The gasoline-powered motorcycle was invented by Gottlieb Daimler, a German engineer, in 1885. He attached an engine to a bicycle frame.

How the invention changed the way people worked, played, or lived at the time of the invention? It a way to do light weight travel over longer distances. it uses less gas because of less mass.

How the invention has changed over time? The invention changed over time to be stronger and more efficent,and be able to have stronger horse power, better turning and have more efficent frames with better quality metal and strong brakes.Their are diffrent types now like, choppers, harley, jap bikes,bobbers and shovel heads.


 * Interview:**Setting: in a Harley Davidson Motorcycle store a Old man walks in and asks How His inviention has progressed!

Manager:Who are you, and what are you talking about your inviention????

The man: I mean is this or is this not a motorcycle shop?

Manager: I asked you first The man: I'm Gottlieb, Daimler.

Manager:.................I'm sorry are you the inventor of the Motorcycle!!!

Daimler: Yes indeed, I made the motorcycle for the purpase of light fast travel. Manager: Your the man!

Daimler: I also made the motorcycle for people that are in a rush and need to get to places faster that walking, plus the engine is much lighter than a car's engine and still goes the same speed.

Manager:Well whould like to see what your handy work has become!

Daimler: Yes, of course I would like to see your selection of motorcycles.

Manager: ok, we have choppers, shovel heads, scooters, and minibikes! they all are upgraded designs of your original but the same basic shapp has only barly been changed. The old basic motor of yours has been upgraded to have stronger horse power,better frames, and better stearing. You have revalusionized the world have travel.

Daimler: Well the time machines waiting.Bye!

Daimler: Oh, wait did you make laws of motorcycles"????? Manager:Yes ther are helmet laws, driving laws, buying laws! Daimler: now i realy must go bye!
