No, Harley-Davidson motorcycles do not have a gas pedal. Motorcycles, including those produced by Harley-Davidson, are typically operated using a combination of controls on the handlebars and foot controls. The right handlebar usually houses the throttle grip, which is twisted to control the speed of the motorcycle. On the left handlebar, you can find various controls such as the clutch lever, gear shifter, and other auxiliary controls depending on the specific model.

The foot controls on a Harley-Davidson typically include the brake pedal on the right side and the gear shifter on the left side. The gear shifter is used to shift between gears on motorcycles with manual transmissions. The reason for placing the gear shifter on the left side is primarily due to convention and standardization across motorcycle manufacturers, rather than a specific design choice made by Harley-Davidson.

It's worth noting that Harley-Davidson offers a range of motorcycles with different configurations, including models with automatic transmissions. However, even in these cases, the throttle control is still located on the right handlebar, and the left foot control remains the gear shifter.
