Our bikes are destined to all be "classics"..you know the pre-china models

 

I have all the respect in the world for the old fart (I can call him that because I am one too) but I think HD's future depends on moving away from us baby boomers and recruiting younger folks as well.

 

News Flash, 12/12/2012 Honda Buys HD. Moves production to Ohio, Japan.

The new Gold Glide, The Sumo Boy and the Road Emperor are a hit.

 

Maybe they'll actually be a little innovative instead of radical changes like new paint color or black pipes then (insert queer name) and call it a new bike.

 

Congratulation Willie, I am sure you earned it. No naysayer comments from me.

 

What a shame...Willie G was there during the merger with AMF, the separation from AMF and the IPO of 1987...He was the creator of the FX...The last of The Family Members! He sure earned his retirement!

 

thats funny!!! I want a sumo boy!!!

 

Isn't his son Bill Davidson in charge of advertising or something?
Scouser

 

Any time I worked around Wille G. or his son Billy at a rally, they always made you feel like family. Make all the smart assed remarks you want, it would be hard pressed to find better people than these two.

 

Willie G has meant a hell of a lot to HD and even more to us riders. Stay in the wind Willie.
