I'd say that extends to the bikers community in general not only HD, unless you are one of those "I hate metrics" or "I hate Harley" guys. Surely what Harley Davidsons give (ehm.. sells you included in the price) is definitely a strong sense of belonging to a great group, and all the events they promote surely helps bonding people with the same passion together. I believe it's a positive thing promoting friendship as a side effect of marketing.

I agree. I ride with a local group that's open to all makes of bikes. Very relaxed group of people that just want to ride and could care less what type it is. Harley is in the minority with that group.
I'll be going to the local chappel to make donations in the collection plate soon. I've been studying the bible and am about to start the regular scheduled penance for riding.

Hey Guys
I didn't start this to cause a conflict with emotions. I simply meant that when you ride, and stop anywhere, we relate to each other. I have never had so many people, from so many backrounds, stop and talk with me. I have forged friendships, had conversations, taken pictures with so many different people; It's crazy that something as simple as a bike, no matter what you ride, can make two people talk and get to know each other.
If nothing else, it simply seems to bridge the "traditional" gaps

I think, what your saying has more to do with who you are, not what you ride.
