THE EON RIDERS
"WHY WE RIDE..."
WE DON’T RIDE TO BE COOL, WE DON’T RIDE TO BE TOUGH,
WE DON’T RIDE TO INTIMIDATE, WE DON’T RIDE TO BE BAD,
WE DON’T RIDE TO BE DANGEROUS, DON’T RIDE TO BE GREAT,
WE DON’T RIDE TO MAKE A STATEMENT OR TO REBEL.
BUT THEN WHY DO WE RIDE?
"WHY WE RIDE..."
WE DON’T RIDE TO BE COOL, WE DON’T RIDE TO BE TOUGH,
WE DON’T RIDE TO INTIMIDATE, WE DON’T RIDE TO BE BAD,
WE DON’T RIDE TO BE DANGEROUS, DON’T RIDE TO BE GREAT,
WE DON’T RIDE TO MAKE A STATEMENT OR TO REBEL.
BUT THEN WHY DO WE RIDE?
WE RIDE:
CUZ’ WE CAN.
WE RIDE TO BE OURSELVES, WE RIDE TO BE FREE,
WE RIDE TO BE PROUD OF WHO WE ARE,
WE RIDE TO FEEL THE WIND IN OUR FACES,
WE RIDE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR OUR ENGINES,
WE KNOW THAT THE ONLY THING SEPARATING US FROM
THE ROAD IS OUR IRON HORSE, SKIN AND BONES,
BUT NOT OUR ROOF, DOORS, AND WINDSHIELD
THAT SOME HIDE BEHIND AS TO SHOW
THAT THEY DO NOT WANT TO SEE OUR PROUD FACES.
OUR PRIDE.
OUR DIGNITY.
OUR HONOR.
OUR BIKES.
OUR FELLOW BIKERS ARE OUR BROTHERS,
OUR FRIENDS, OUR COMRADES.
THEIR ROAD IS OURS, OURS IS THEIRS.
WE ARE INCORRUPTIBLE,
PROPAGANDA AN ENEMY,
POLITICS NOTHING.
AS LONG AS THE PATH IS THERE
AND OUR BRETHREN NEAR,
WE WILL RIDE,
CUZ’ WE CAN.
OUR PRIDE.
OUR DIGNITY.
OUR HONOR.
OUR BIKES.
OUR FELLOW BIKERS ARE OUR BROTHERS,
OUR FRIENDS, OUR COMRADES.
THEIR ROAD IS OURS, OURS IS THEIRS.
WE ARE INCORRUPTIBLE,
PROPAGANDA AN ENEMY,
POLITICS NOTHING.
AS LONG AS THE PATH IS THERE
AND OUR BRETHREN NEAR,
WE WILL RIDE,
CUZ’ WE CAN.
Miles per gallon.
Harley-Davidson has released another "Screw it; Let's ride" print ad imploring Americans not to buy Harleys for their fuel economy. Of course, the company has the distinct advantage of having a customer base who likely ranks fuel economy at the very bottom of their purchase motivators. But still, what advertising copywriter wouldn't like to propose "MPG describes riding like biology describes sex" and see it get through legal? This message works great for Harley as its sales are image- rather than product-led.

The Hellcat Combat is presented as a limited edition variant of the second and final generation of the Hellcat series. The Combat features a design specific hand ported and polished head design, special camshaft grind, returned intake system, which harmoniously result in a 12% gain in rear wheel horsepower and a 4% increase in rear wheel torque. Front and rear camshaft compression and rebound suspension rates are recalculated for superior handling, more detailed feedback and increased ride control.
A new sport seat and Combat specific finish completes the machine. The result is an exotic balance of power and beauty. A discreet "Combat" insignia is engraved on the outer primary machined aircraft-grade aluminun plate.

Harley Davidson Leaning Trike

Here’s something a bit different from the Motor Company, it’s a patent application from Harley Davidson for a leaning trike. It’s looks like a cross between the Can-Am Spyder and the Brudeli 625 but it is distinctively Harley with the big twin power plant in there.
