Wagner Motorcycle Company

Defunct American motor vehicle manufacturer

The Wagner Motorcycle Company (1901–1914) was established in Saint Paul, Minnesota, by George Wagner as an offshoot of the former Wagner Bicycle Company. It produced approximately 8,500 Wagner motorcycles and was one of the first manufacturers to position the engine low down, using a "loop frame" at a time when most companies were producing high-engined Indian clones.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
