Since John Alexander made motorbikes, do Rocket bikes count as a bicycle made by a motorbike company?

P.S. @New Mexico Brant your 3 bikes are incredible!! Perfect patina and everything!

Great bike Dan!
I don't think Alexander qualifies as one of the great three American motorcycle companies.
Happy Christmas!

Here’s a couple of tribute bikes.
The 1917 Excelsior and the 1935 Schwinn built, Henderson.

Arnold, Schwinn & Company acquired the Henderson Motorcycle Company in 1917, and merged it with their existing Excelsior brand, creating the, Excelsior Henderson Motor Manufacturing and Supply Company.

Here are the big three for me: Harley Davidson, Flying Merkel, Excelsior. The Merkel motorcycle pushed the field with their speed and engineering. They were just too expensive to built and Joseph Merkel apparently wasn't the easiest fellow to work with. One wonders what would have happened if Schwinn or another more well financed firm bought the Merkel brand from Light in 1911?
