lettering their motorcycles.
in 100+ year history of the Harley Davidson Company, there have been many notable women riders. In Vivian Bale stopped and met with Harley Davidson dealers throughout the United States in 1929, as she made a trip of almost 5, 000 miles on her 45 Twin D Harley.

racing circuit.

considered one of the most iconic images in American cinematic history.
The founder of Forbes magazine, Malcolm Forbes, was one of the wealthiest men in America. Forbes loved giving away Harley Davidson motorcycles as gifts to
his close, personal friends. Forbes himself had a collection of 50 Harley Davidson motorcycles. It is interesting to note that Forbes did not begin riding motorcycles until he was in his late 40’s.

levels.

During a campaign photo shoot, former President Bill Clinton
even shared the spotlight with a Harley.
Equally as well known, although not for positive reasons, is the motorcycle gang known as the Hells Angels. The Hell’s Angels have always favored Harley Davidson motorcycles, even though there has never been no known link to the Harley Davidson Company. The Hell’s Angels began in 1948 and by the 1960’s had become notorious throughout the United States and Canada for their ties to organized criminal activity. The site of this group of bikers entering a town atop their Harleys was enough to strike fear into the hearts of many people throughout the years.
