Sylvester Howard Roper died on June 1, 1896, while demonstrating his steam-powered motorcycle in Cambridge, Massachusetts. During the demonstration, he lost control and crashed, suffering a fatal heart attack, which was likely exacerbated by the excitement and exertion of the ride. His death marked a significant moment in the history of early motorized vehicles.
