Which of these was not a motorcycle company?

There were many motorcycle companies started in the early 20th century, but Cord was not one. Cord was a luxury car builder in Indiana that was founded in 1929 and went bankrupt in 1937.

Most people are familiar with Harley Davidson and Indian motorcycles, which have survived and are still being produced today. However few people have heard of motorcycles companies like Thor, Iver Johnson, Reading Standard, Curtiss, Marsh, Pierce, or Henderson. Even Sears made a motorcycle called the Deluxe, which was sold through their catalogs. These rare discontinued motorcycles, and many others not listed, can be seen in museums, like "Barbers Vintage Motorcycle Museum" in Birmingham AL.

The Barber Vintage Motorcycle Museum is located at Barber Motorsports Park, a multi- purpose racing facility. It is a beautiful road course for everything from motorcycles to Indie Cars and vintage racecars.I live close enough to hear the racing. They also have the Porsche Racing Experience. The motorcycle museum is really awesome and not to be missed. They have so many motorcycles that they only have half of their collection on display at any given time.
