Question Willie G Davidson

What does Willie ride? Did he do any mods? Now I know he can both afford and just plain pick any ride he wants, but is he like the rest of us? He must have his own ride, his baby if ya will. It would be kinda cool if anyone had any factual proof of what he rides. Now I think he showed up at Sturgis on the the crossbones, but that was just a publicity stunt

I'd assume that he rides but I have a feeling that he isn't an enthusiast the way most might define it.

I believe in 2008 he rode a custom rocker to Daytona.

I wouldn't mind just having the bikes he has inside his home. As decorations. Lol

I rode with Willie G from the Capitol Dr. plant to Sturgis back in 1991. He still rides as far as I know. He had a bike entered in the World of Wheels show in Milwaukee last month...here is a pic:

I may be mistaken, but that looks like a CT on the rear rim??

I know Willie G is into the old bikes and has some. He has access to any of the test/publicity fleet of late model Harley's. Those are the ones I would be riding. Wille G read the same article I did about a husband and wife team who had recreated a 1940's dealership. They had found many of the original parts till in their orange and black cardboard boxes. Even a glass jar of one quart of Harley oil from the WWII yeas when harley had to stop using the tin can oil cans for defense reasons. There wasn't any restriction on glass jars so they put the Harley oil they were alloted in Mason jar sized bottles. That couple had one and Willie G couldn't offer them enough to buy it. He eventually tracked down his own glass jar quart. So that speaks about his love of the old Harley stuff.

I,ve seen him ridin a Street Glide when he came to Wheels Through Time and other times seen him on several shows on a Sharknose. But I guess a man of his financial status can ride whatever he chooses.(must be nice!)

Anything he wishes to!!!!!!!!!!! I can envision him on a CVO tuoring bike or on a Crossbones. But I really doubt a Honda Fury.
