This is the First Motorcycle in Indonesia

Today, motorcycles have become one of the most popular modes of transportation in the world. But once you think about what about the first motor that goes to Indonesia and how its form?

A little flashback, the first invention of the motor, occurred in 1868, when it was a company in the world that produced large bikes, began to develop bicycles with steam engines as a driving force. The effort is continued by, an English inventor named Edward Butler, butler makes a tricycle with a motor through internal combustion. since then began many experiments to make motorcycles and cars.

originally a motorcycle made of wood and using three wheels. which is equipped with a machine, the bike is called reitwagen (riding car). and became the first motorcycle in the ketemukan in 1885.

then when motorcycles go to Indonesia ?? according to the historical record of proboligolah city which was the first place to be the first motorcycle in Indonesia. motorcycle was first owned by an Englishman named john c. potter in 1893. Potter was the first machinist at the eucal sugar factory (umbul) probolinggo east java.

In addition he is also known as a car pedangang in solo, who in trust sunan / king solo to take care of delivery of his car from Europe to Java.

Well the first motorcycle was born in Germany in 1885, not in England, and this bike is also newly marketed in 1893. and this bike is in production by hildebrand factory and wolfmuller in muenchen germany. motorcycle first entered the United States in 1895, so Indonesia 2 years earlier had a motorcycle.😂😂😂
