The more guys they bring in and hook the more bikes they sell. Just marketing the brand. Based on a lot of posts I see here from guys that have never ridden a bike I think HD will do well with this strategy. By a Harley and become a badass.

...Bring a buddy, grab a cold one and get ready to kick start some good times!


Motorcycle Boot Camp is a crash course in motorcycles. We know there's a ton of questions about how to get started, and we want to make it easy. We'll start with the basics and go headlights to tailpipes, getting you up to speed on everything from learning to ride to gear that fits your style.




Leave it to HD! the above are direct quotes excerpted from their site. Grab a cold one...now there's some sage advice from a true ambassador of motorcycling...


...no wonder in the next excerpt they refer to this as a 'crash course". Boy, these marketing guys can certainly choose their words carefully, eh?

Using the word "crash" when trying to sell any vehicle is probably not a wise form of marketing.
