Curtiss began his career as a Western Union bicycle messenger, a bicycle racer, and bicycle shop owner. In 1901 he developed an interest in motorcycles when internal combustion engines became more available. In 1902 Curtiss began manufacturing motorcycles with his own single cylinder engines. His first motorcycle's carburetor was adapted from a tomato soup can containing a gauze screen to pull the gasoline up via capillary action.In 1903 he set a motorcycle land speed record at 64 miles per hour (103 km/h) for one mile (1.6 km). When E.H. Corson of the Indian Motorcycle Company visited Hammondsport in July 1904, he was amazed that the entire Curtiss motorcycle enterprise was sited in the back room of the modest "shop". Corson's motorcycles had just been trounced the week before by "Hell Rider" Curtiss in an endurance race from New York to Cambridge, Maryland.

In 1907, Curtiss set an unofficial world record of 136.36 miles per hour (219.45 km/h), on a 40 horsepower (30 kW) 4000 cc V8 powered motorcycle of his own design and construction. The air-cooled F-head engine was intended for use in aircraft.He would remain "the fastest man in the world," to use the title the newspapers gave him, until 1911, and his motorcycle record was not broken until 1930. This motorcycle is now in the Smithsonian Institution. Curtiss' success at racing had solidified his reputation as a leading maker of high-performance motorcycles and engines

 Curtiss memulakan kerjaya sebagai utusan basikal Western Union, pelumba basikal, dan pemilik kedai basikal. Pada tahun 1901, beliau mempunyai satu minat dalam motosikal apabila enjin pembakaran dalaman menjadi lebih tersedia. Pada tahun 1902 Curtiss mula pembuatan motosikal dengan enjin satu silinder sendiri.Karburetor motosikal pertama beliau telah disesuaikan daripada tin sup tomato mengandungi skrin kain kasa untuk menarik petrol melalui proses kapilari.Pada 1903 beliau telah menetapkan rekod kelajuan motosikal di 64 Mph (103 km/h) untuk jarak satu batu (1.6 km). Apabila E.H. Corson daripada Syarikat Motorsikal Indian melawat Hammondsport pada bulan Julai tahun 1904, beliau kagum bahawa keseluruhan Perusaharaan Motosikal Curtiss telah ditempatkan di bilik belakang "kedai" yang sederhana. Motosikal Corson telah dihancurkan seminggu sebelum "Hell Rider" Curtiss dalam perlumbaan endurance dari New York ke Cambridge, Maryland.

Pada tahun 1907, Curtiss menetapkan rekod dunia yang tidak rasmi 136.36 Mph (219.45 km/h), dengan eijin buatan sendiri, reka bentuk dan pembinaan sendiri, 40 kuasa kuda (30 kW) 4000 cc V8 kepala enjin F penyejukan udara yang digunakan untuk pesawat ketika itu. Dia masih kekal dengan gelaran "manusia terpantas di dunia," seperti mana yg di tulis dalam akhbar, sehingga 1911, dan rekod motosikal beliau belum dipecahkan sehingga 1930. Motosikal ini kini dalam Institut Smithsonian. Kejayaan Curtiss pada perlumbaan telah mengukuhkan reputasi beliau sebagai pembuat motosikal dan enjin berprestasi tinggi terkemuka dunia.
