Cool people are into this and it's in Shandong, which is great to have people thundering around on legal big bikes in my local area. If someone lent me an XR1200 I'd go, but I don't think they import Harleys that aren't foot-forward comfort bikes.
The 883 Sportster isn't feet forward, but admittedly it isn't that comfortable of a ride so I keep getting reminded by a German mate about his time riding with me for 10 hours in the saddle, he on his 883 and me on my Dragstar 1100. Pity HD dropped the 1200 Sportser from the line up several years ago. I should have bought one when I had the chance from HD Shanghai.Quote:

good for a hard laugh, the HOG China trailer queens: http://hoghd.cn/viewthread.php?tid=1...age%3D1&page=1
now all you need is look the part and trailer your bikes, buy the MC gear via the Outpost Gangster MC Beijing website.....
Yikes! A lot of money sitting on those trailers! Each bike, plated in Beijing, is about $70,000 (US) out-the-door.Quote:

Hmmmm ... six guys, three bikes ... I wonder if their riding gear is modeled after these six guys ...

All together now .... It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A ...
I bet those guys would laugh their asses off at me when I pull up in my HuangHai, Chinese copy of a Mercedes SUV, with my cheapo Yinhe "Galaxy" dirt bikes in tow. I bet one of those Hogs cost twice what I paid for the car, trailer and two dirt bikes.Quote:

Not really "HD in China" but ...
It is generally assumed that most HD riders deck out their bikes with skulls, bones, and passing references to Satan. For those other Harley riders who believe they are "closer to God", there now appears to be official validation that they have chosen the correct path in life. Harley-Davidson will be receiving a papal blessing in 2013 (Harley's 110th anniversary).
Yes, the Pope will bless Harley-Davidson.
Recently, the Pope and Willie-G Davidson met at the Vatican to formalize the deal.

During this meeting, the Pope, Willie-G and Bill Davidson agreed to autograph two Harley gas tanks. One will be in the HD museum, the other will be auctioned off for charity.
To celebrate its 110th Anniversary, HD is issuing a limited number of Special Edition versions of its existing line-up. There is only one new model being offered during this anniversary/papal-blessing year ... the CVO Breakout ... available with Pagan gold graphics. Hmmm ... when something gets a blessing, is it sprinkled with holy water?

You can't make this stuff up.
I wonder who, of similar stature to the Pope, might "bless" my China bikes? It would have to be someone revered in China ... someone close to God ... hmmmm ... maybe Kobe Bryant?
