How are crates full of new Harley-Davidsons typically unloaded?

My biker buddy says they make the Harley riders stay at the rear of the pack. Apparently they got tired of dodging all the parts that fell off their bikes

 

I'd be interested in how they create the proper flatulence sound of a Harley?

 

Now, now, careful, you're on thin ice there, pal. There was a time when that was true, and no H-D ride was complete without the "chase van". I grew up in the AMF era, and a lot of crap went out the door. Of all the bikes I've had, only one H-D, a 1985 FXRT, and it was, without a doubt, the nicest bike I ever had. I don't trust the belt drive, and would convert any H-D to a chain, but I had a '75 GW, which I put almost 100K on, and an '81 GW, that was a total POS. If I was to get another road bike, it would be H-D all the way. And with the glut of used ones, I could get a low mileage older H-D( not a sporty) for $5gs. THAT'S why H-D is in trouble, there's just too many H-D's out there.

 

I worked three Rally's in a Taxi.
We had plenty of giving rides to guys back and forth to the dealership. Bike getting worked on.
Gave a guy a ride back to his camping spot from the HD dealer. Bike was getting worked on. I asked him about them being trouble and unreliable. He said: That's why you buy two. .... Yup... at his camp spot he had another Harley on a trailer.
One couple. Brand new Harley. Had it checked for the 2k mile checkup before leaving home. Bike barely made it here. They were not happy campers.
Worked 7 Rally's in trash...
At a campground emptying dumpster. Had a Biker ask me how I liked my job. I told him: Oh it's just awful! Just look at this bad work environment! I can hardly stand it! It's a tough job... and he finished it while laughing "but somebody's gotta do it".

The people in general are great who come here. They're just wanting to have fun. Enjoy the Rally. Play scooter tramp. I enjoy them.
There is a good number that is a small percentage of them who are trouble. Gotta be careful.
Every year we hate watching the death toll rise. Don't like it at all.

 

You mean they actually RODE them there.....they weren't on a trailer? That's where you see most Harley's......on a trailer being hauled somewhere.....probably because of the aforementioned parts falling off

 

What law?

Can you imagine running out of electricity in the middle of a trip?

Harley without the noise is just like a rice burner.

 

I'm not sure, it's what some sales dude at Harley was telling us a few months back. What's the point in buying a Harley that's not going to have the Harley noise, thats what I don't get.

 

I can't imagine they would try. I hope not anyway. It would be pretty pathetic.

 

Load of Harleys being delivered...





Wait for it...





Here it comes...

 

They're called Hogs for a reason!
