Calling each other swashbuckling poser pirates is all fun and games at recess.
It's all about marketing, and the money to be made...
HD can and will continue to come up with new ideas to cause us to part with our hard earned cash... skull running boards / primary covers / shift linkages HELL even the the damn valve stem covers have skulls on um...
It could also have been leading up to the new "dark customs" on HD's web site, but that's stretching the conspiracy theory a bit too far heh (c;

In an honest service there is thin commons, low wages, and hard labour. In this, plenty and satiety, pleasure and ease, liberty and power; and who would not balance creditor on this side, when all the hazard that is run for it, at worst is only a sour look or two at choking? No, a merry life and a short one shall be my motto.

I think the skull and crossbones is just one of those traditional biker things (along with pirates, etc.). Some pretty neat designs can be done with them though, so you may find a shirt or two that you like.

Did you know that willie G introduced the Skull & crossbones to the bikes, & he is a member of the " UGLY'S" it is a MC Group that has members like Jay leno and other distingushed members. The owner of my dealership is a member of the " UGLY'S "
The Groups logo is a plain Skull & crossbones.

Reminds me of a poem:
The cabin boy, the cabin boy
the little nasty nipper
packed his $ss full of glass and
circumsized the skipper.............
