Cygnet Rear Car

Cygnet Rear Car

Description

In the early 1900s, Cygnet Rear Car Company took the idea of the horse drawn carriage and adapted it so that the horse was replaced by a motorcycle. Their business plan was simple, provide a form of transportation that was cheaper to own than a car, but carried more passengers or equipment than a standard motorcycle. They boasted that their rear cars could be removed in 30 seconds, allowing the owner to switch back to a standard motorcycle with ease. The Cygnet rear cars are pictured attached on both Harley-Davidson and Indian motorcycles, but it is unclear whether they made specific models for each manufacturer or if the rear car was a "universal fit" for any motorcycle.
