**Gottlieb Daimler**
1. Gottlieb Daimler was born on March 17,1830, in **Schorndorf, Germony**. His father mechanical engineer. Then he want back to factory work, but became interested in alternatives to the steam engine. When **Daimler** went to work for **Nikolaus Otto** at the **Deutz Engine Works**, he met another engineer named **Karl Maybach**. They soon became good friends wanted him to work in civil service, but **Gottlieb** was interested in mechanics and engineering. In 1848, **Gottlieb** went to a **technical** gasoline engine was finished in 1883. In 1884, they attached a small one cylinder engine to a bike. It was the world's first motorcycle. Until **WW** I, the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world was **Indian**, producing over 20,000 bikes per year. By 1920,The largest was **Harley-Davidson** (made in Milwaukee where I am from), with their motorcycles being sold by dealers in 67 countries. Honda is currently the largest **school** in nearby **Stuttgard**. His first job in 1853 was at a steam engine factory. After 4 years he went back to school and finished his training as a. Together they worked on a light, high speed gasoline powered engine. It featured a new hot tube ignition system. Their first successful manufacturer of motorcycles.

2. **How did Daimler invent the motorcycle?** The first successful internal combustion engine was invented on August 29,1885. It was mounted on a bicycle, thereby creating the first motor bike. The following year he mounted his engine on a four wheeled vehicle, building one of the first road worthy motor cars.


 * 4.** **Is it still used today?** Yes, People use them for racing, for fun, and for pleasure; and the police use them to catch speeders.

 * Today:**

**My Speach**
Hallo [|Neigung]ich bin Gottlieb Daimler I was born in March 17, 1834, in Schorndorf, Germany. Childhood? In addition to his studies at the grammar //school// in Schorndorf. His father wanted his son to get a classical education and work in the civil service. But **Gottlieb** was interested in mechanics and engineering. In 1848, he went to a technical school in nearby Stuttgart. While he was studying, he also worked as an apprentice in a gun factory. In 1853 **Gottlieb** went to work at a steam engine factory in Strassburg. After four years, he went back to school, and finished his training as a mechanical engineer at the Stuttgart Polytechnic  School. He returned to Strassburg and worked in the factory, but then became interested in alternatives to the steam engine. In 1882 **Daimler** and Maybach left the Deutz company and went to work on a light, high-speed gasoline-powered engine on their own. Its design was similar to the Otto four-stroke design, but it featured a new hot-tube ignition system. Their first successful gasoline engine was finished in 1883. In 1884, they attached a small one-cylinder engine to a bicycle. It was the world's first motorcycle. The motorcycle probably would be used in the future because people use them for pleasure, fun, and sport. What was it used for? motor vehicle whose design is based on the bicycle. The German inventor Gottlieb [|Daimler]  is generally credited with building the first practical motorcycle in 1885. The motorcycle did not become dependable and popular, however, until after 1900. The typical motorcycle has an air-cooled engine supported in a metal frame between two wheels. Sometimes a third wheel is called a sidecar, which is attached to the motorcycle. The motor is a two- or four-cycle gasoline engine with one to four cylinders. Its piston displacement generally ranges from 50 to 1,500 cc. Although the motorcycle is not as safe a vehicle added to support an open carriage, as the automobile, its convenience and economy have made it very popular; it is widely used for pleasure riding, racing, and commercial transportation of light goods. Modern touring motorcycles provide automatic transmission, stereo sound, and luggage space. Motorcycles are widely used by the police for traffic patrols. Use of the motorcycle has increased greatly in recent years as a result of the development of the inexpensive, lightweight motorcycle, manufactured chiefly in Asia. Dirt bikes, motorcycles specially designed and outfitted for off-road use, are also now common. The motor scooter, a variation on the motorcycle, has smaller wheels and has most of its working parts enclosed by a shield. The driver sits on a seat with his or her feet on a wide metal platform behind the front shield. Another variation on the motorcycle is the moped, a bicycle to which a small (under 50 cc) auxiliary engine has been attached. Motorcycle racing is done both on paved and unpaved surfaces, over closed and cross-country courses, for a variety of vehicle classes. Particularly popular is motocross, in which dirt bikes are raced over an off-road closed course with numerous turns, jumps, hills, and other irregular terrain. Bicycle or tricycle propelled by an [|internal combustion engine]. The first motor tricycle was built in 1884 in England, and the first gasoline-engine motorcycle was built by [|Gottlieb Daimler] in 1885. Motorcycles were widely used after 1910, especially by the armed forces in World War I. After 1950 a larger, heavier motorcycle was used mainly for touring and sport competitions. The moped, a light, low-speed motor bicycle that can also be pedaled, was developed mainly in Europe, and the sturdier Italian-made motor scooter also became popular for its economy.[|How stof works]
