Harley-Davidson & L.A. Riders (known as ハーレーダビッドソン&L.A.ライダーズ in Japan) is an arcade game developed by AM1 and released in 1997. It was officially the first game to utilize the Sega Model 3 2.0 hardware, which ran at 166 MHz.
Harley-Davidson & L.A. Riders was sold in two cabinet variants. The "deluxe" version featured a 50-inch projection monitor and motorcycle hydraulics. The other variant is a more standard sit-down cabinet with a smaller 25-inch monitor, and no hydraulics.
Gameplay
In Harley-Davidson & L.A. Riders, the player rides one of five Harley-Davidson models through three, four, or five stages, with the number of stages determined by the machine's settings. The objective is to complete a series of checkpoints around Los Angeles under a time limit. The CPU randomly determines the checkpoint location and course route. The player also has to collect many hidden items, such as "tokens" that resemble the Harley-Davidson logo, in order to earn bonus points. Tokens are worth 1,000 to 100,000 points, with more valuable tokens being hidden in obscure areas. Occasionally, the player will find special colored tokens floating around, which award 5 or 10 seconds of bonus time.
During gameplay, the player has the ability to choose from three different camera angles, select several different music pieces (some of which were recycled from other AM1-developed games such as Dynamite Baseball and Sega Ski Super G), and honk the bike with the start button. Like in any motorcycle racing game, the player can use Automatic or Manual Transmission. With Manual Transmission the player has to shift gears via his/her left hand-grip.
