What does Harley Davidson mean to you

Ha, I was just kidding with my above post.
Ha, welcome to the "new world order" Being in debt means your doing your part to survive, and helping all the CEO's in our nation party like rock stars. It's always tough to add another zero to a bonus check while we clip coupons to save a $1.00 on Hamburger Helper.
To own a Harley is like owning stock in American history. The nostalgia , and the story on how Harley survived going under during the AMF era is what makes this country what it is. No need to get into the mumbo-jumbo about the past, but it does reflect on the "American" worker and how we handle adversity.
Look at the present and how the other manufactures have jumped on the Harley band wagon. They all try to say how there product is like having a Harley without buying a Harley. As a motorcycle enthusiast, I do appreciate all makes and models and what they offer for the latest ingenuity, but bottom line is, they're following what Harley started, you can see it in there designs. Harley's always represented what a motorcycle should be, even if the design didn't work, it was always on the threshold on making something appealing to us, the motorcycle enthusiasts.

What kind of dope falls for a marketing campaign? I bought my HD 'cause Harley is the only one like it left in America. When I get on it, or just look at it, it gives me a feeling that I don't get from other bikes. Nothing sounds like a Harley V-twin. I don't care if it is as fast as a sport bike, or as silky smooth as a BMW. I love this bike, if you don't love yours, sell it. BTW, I don't need to have a "don't fu(k with me attitude", my bike has it for me
see the movie "the sting" and know that the dope gotten must always believe the presented sting. he can never know he's been stung.
i'm on my third harley, but i know the marketing and genius behind the marketing. i also own other bikes. think. think. think.
