Harley-Davidson has revealed a line of military-themed motorcycles that tip their hats to the brand's efforts during World War 2.

It was specially designed with features needed for combat duty in rough terrain, including fenders, heavy duty luggage racks and, in some cases, scabbards large enough for Thompson submachine guns.
