In hindsight I probably should have started getting poker chips instead...would have been a lot cheaper.

I wanted to grab one from Moscow last fall but couldn’t get to the dealership - that would have been cool...
Got that one and the street vendors are much cheaper than the dealer. Was going to rent a bike for the day till I found what they wanted price wise. Ended up taking a short spin on a locals yamaha instead just to say I rode while in Russia.

I have one from Honolulu and one from Cayman Islands. I was somewhere in Pa and a lady saw me wearing the one from Honolulu and asked me if I rode my bike all the way to Hawaii.

If I remember correctly, there's one company that owns the Harley stores on a lot of the Caribbean Islands. Most of them are "Collectibles" stores.

Many years ago I used to collect Harley Tees, but when I got to about 100 of them, I realized I'd never wear all of them. I mean, I have other shirts to wear too, lol. Plus the price of shirts started getting higher than $15! I did have some self-imposed rules as I roamed around the US: I had to physically be in the dealership to purchase the shirt & it had to be an actual full blown dealership, not a "Collectible" or "Tee-Shirt" shop, which weren't anywhere near as numerous as they are today. For the past 20 years I haven't even dropped in to a Harley dealership when on the road, never mind spend $35 on a shirt.

In all our years 25+ years going to Roatan, I've only seen 2 Harley's. Both were older Sportsters. The boutique shop at the cruise ship pier has some very nice T-shirts and souvenirs but no bikes.

I got one in Jamaica too a few years ago. I was told there's no dealer there, just a merch shop (of course). They said there's a law that limits cc's on bikes on the island and all HD motors are too big.

As for Tee's, me, not so much. I collect the pins and have framed my favorite HD hoodie from my trip around Cali.
