HD...a t-shirt company that also sells bikes on the side....
That Indian 750 would be a good hooligan bike...if it wasn't for the price:

I have asked motocops in California if they prefer the BMW or the HD....and most preferred the beemer for riding and handling...and the HD for parades
as they lug better.
Yeah....the pirate outfits....unique individuality....the wannabees now like those skeleton face masks....kinda juvenile isn't it?

Been to Switzerland or Austria lately?? fave bikes of the educated rich euros are HD's.
The ride to die, live to ride lifestyle and clothing associated is the draw.
Baby boomer baggers and choppers are all that's left here in the states.
The business model here has died, don't blame HD one bit

During his career, Knievel may have suffered more than 433 bone fractures,[25] earning an entry in the Guinness Book of World Records as the survivor
of "most bones broken in a lifetime".[1] However, this number could be exaggerated: his son Robbie told a reporter in June 2014 that his father had
broken 40 to 50 bones; Knievel himself claimed he broke 35.

LOS ANGELES TIMES STAFF WRITER
In the 20 years Travis Pastrana has been pummeling motorcycles, he’s broken more than 60 bones, survived 25 concussions and, in the process, become
the most celebrated motocross freestyler of all time....If you take Evel Knievel’s life and multiply it by 10, you’ll get Travis Pastrana’s. And
he’s just 24 years old.

Travis stopped to meet Coco early this year and dropped a few hundies. A real class act. Plus, he is still building on his resume.
