Nice to know the number of guys attending, is on an increase.

I'm sad for those guys who have got their wheels in the hospital

and for those who can't make it due to job or other commitments.

 

Given that this would be our 1st meet, i'm sure others would follow.

Every time a bike gets discharged / owner took mc from work, we could meet up for further rides.

my horn failed to work

[Designer Dude]

my horn failed to work

 

Typically horns have a long life span unless its doused for example rain.

Don't conclude that it needs to be replaced at this juncture.

Try removing, fiddling on the screws.

Blow dry it with a hair dryer.

it juz mite save u sum $$$s

[GuY]

Hi, i am Lawrence here from Urban Studio, an events management co. I am organising a Dinner & Dance for a company and will require the help of 3 Harley riders to dress up like the actors in "Wildhogs" to do a grand opening for the event. Basically the job is just to display your bike and after that ride and pillion the MD of the company to the ballroom. You will be paid for doing such opening. Thanks. Interested Harley riders can call me @98008765.

A Little History wont hurt nobody...........

The founders of Harley-Davidson, left to right: Arthur Davidson, Walter Davidson, William Harley, and William Davidson.

The restored "Serial No. 1" motorcycle is currently on display in the lobby of the Juneau Avenue building, in Milwaukee. Built to be a racer, this was the first motorcycle sold to the public.

The Motor Company formally entered racing in 1914. The first racing engineer is William S. Harley. By the 1920's, Harley-Davidson motorcycles were dominating both board tracks and dirt tracks. The racing team earned the nickname "Wrecking Crew" because of their incredible dominance of the sport.

The first factory in which William S. Harley and Arthur Davidson built their first motorcycles was a 10' x 15' wooden shed with the words "Harley-Davidson Motor Company" crudely scrawled on the door. The structure stood in the back yard of the home of Arthur's father, William C. Davidson.

The 37 cubic inch opposed W, or Sport model, is introduced in 1919 and gains great popularity overseas. Unique not only for the cylinder configuration, which was directly opposed and flat, the Sport also earned a reputation for being uncommonly quiet.

Shown above is Army Air Corps member P.A. Johnson with his 1941 61 OHV motorcycle. The picture was taken in August 1944 in Boca Raton, Fla., at a highly classified radar training field.

The picture above shows riding gear from Harley-Davidson's early years. Shown at right is Hap Jameson, then editor of The Enthusiast, in 1925.

Kidney belts worn by riders during the early days of motorcycling had functional and decorative purposes.

The WLA model was the workhorse of military motorcycles during World War II. Harley-Davidson produced over 90,000 WLA's for the war effort.

Harley-Davidson's first V-Twin engines appeared in 1909 on the model 5D. The V-Twin, with its cylinders canted at 45 degrees, would subsequently become the very symbol of Harley-Davidson in future years.
