Go to a rally somewhere and find one of them and bust their *****. At least you would know you are talking to a senior manager and not some flunky.

ORIGINAL: g money

Maybe all 170 of them should meet with the poor people with the 07's that are looking for help. Hell, My 06 has been denied warranty claims a couple of times. Like to talk to ole Willie G. about that!

chances are if you could talk to willie g or bill one of his son's and enough people would talk to and not down to him or them .if you are having problems with the company or your dealer. it may help they care and dont you ever think they dont.any body who knows this family knows it more about the bike than it is about the money. sure he makes alot of bucks but trust me he is a biker. heck his whole family is .how many people would take their new bride to a motorcycle race. for there honeymoon.he did .

Willie G. is one of the good connections that keeps the MOCO tied to the uniqueness of HD riders. If anything, MOCO needs to not lose that connection or they might start listening too much to Wall Streeters instead of Main Streeters.

The HD traveling museum was in town this past weekend, and Willie G. is definitely the poster boy. That's a good thing!

I think it's cool that he is still involved....he could have easily retired with his millions and walked away laughing....he is there because he cares....this is his Grandpa's baby.

I think Willie G is cool. He is happy with who he is. Anybody that would wear that hat has gotta be secure in himself. plus, He will talk to anybody. He's probably as big a celebrity to us HD owners as some of the rap stars to the kids, and yet, as far as I've seen, he has no bodyguards, is always willing to talk HD to anybody and lends his face, name or signature to lots of charity events. AS others have said, he does not have to goff to work everyday, he never has to work another day in his life but I'll bet he puts in more than 40 hours a year on MOCO business. Class act ot me

Ride safe
