Default How many have ever seen a Harley TV commercial?

I thought I watch a lot of TV and yet to see 1 Harley commercial. I read the threads were people say they just say the newest commercial and I have to view it from the HD website because I never see them on TV.

The best one I have seen shows this old grandfather and a 10 year old boy on a porch talking and the boy says, "So grandpa, you had a Harley Davidson?" The old man looks sadly at the boy and answers, "No, Son. I bought siding for the house."

Then a Heritage Softail rides past them and the caption said, "Realize your Dreams ... Harley Davidson Motorcycles"

Caught a part of one the other nite...Night time view of a neighborhood, with a Harley rumbling thru, and some narration about "Being Bad", or something along those lines

I've seen several. Thank goodness HD isn't relying on the commercials to bring in customers. All the commercials I've seen are pretty lame. But I'm guessing HD is not marketing for the "loyal customer," just for new $$.

Saw one when they were blowing out the 07s.
But the best one was where the older "Gentlemen" were out riding the Harleys, and the young chick was checking them out, then they rolled up to a house and an older gal(wife), grown kids, and grandkids gathered around. Thought it was going to be about fineally realizing your dreams or some such horse ****, But it turned out to be an ADULT DIAPER commercial.[sm=icon_rofl.gif][sm=icon_rofl.gif][sm=icon_rofl.gif]. I only seen it twice. You think HD forced it to be pulled?[sm=icon_rofl.gif][sm=icon_rofl.gif]

They ran the hell out of one a couple of years ago where a guy is standing next to a VROD and this girl ask him if it's his bike. He goes on to start bragging how it's his and how he loves the open road, then a chick comes out puts on the helmet and starts the VROD up and rides away and they guy is left standing there looking stupid.

There is a cool one on the HD website right know where Santa's Sleigh is being pulled by 8 Harleys.
