Known as the daddy of all motorcycles, Harley-Davidson motorcycles remain constant throughout the ages even with the varying styles and trends. Founded in 1903, Harley-Davidson is recognized the world over as an icon of the American lifestyle and the American Dream. Here’s a list that takes you on a cruise on the most popular and glorious of the HDs.
1. Dyna Wide Glide (2010)
Price: $14,999
Speed: 100 mph
harley davidson 1
The 2010 Wide Glide is a Dyna Big Twin cycle with old-school chopper style. It isn’t that wide and it pulses more than it glides, but that doesn’t keep this Harley from being a hoot to scoot — even if its low-slung bodywork makes turning a slow, gradual phenomenon.

Two new Husqvarnas will be unveiled in Indy
Posted February 10, 2010 Email this articleEmail
From a press release issued by Husqvarna North America...
February 10, 2010 - Woodcliff Lake, NJ - Colts fans may be crying the blues, but Indianapolis will still be the place to be this weekend! In addition to showcasing Husqvarna's 2010 model lineup, huge contingency program and new dealer initiatives at this weekend's International Dealer Expo in Indy, the wraps are coming off two entirely new motorcycles! Both the TE 630 dual-sport and the SMS 630 Supermoto are considered 2011 models and will be making their North American debut at the tradeshow.
This much anticipated street-legal pair was the talk of the world motorcycle press at the recent "Superbowl" of trade fairs, the EICMA show in Milan, but this will be the first opportunity for North American dealers and magazines to see these two new players. The media is encouraged to attend a brief unveiling ceremony Saturday morning, February 13th at 11 a.m. at the Husqvarna display (Booth #1934), located within the Italian Trade Pavilion.
"Our new 630s created quite a stir during their European debut in Milan, so we thought that the Dealer Expo would be a very fitting place to show them off too," says Husqvarna North America president Mark Brady. "Both of these bikes represent the culmination of the factory's engineering and development team's efforts. We think dealers and consumers will be eager to see the types of products that we're creating."
Want to see what is under wraps? Stop by the Husqvarna display or click on TE630 or SMS630 after the 11 a.m. embargo is lifted on Saturday morning to see specs and images of the first 2011s to enter the country.

'Hogettes' make mark to boost Harley-Davidson sales
Article from: The Courier-Mail

FEMALE riders are boosting the flagging fortunes of Harley-Davidson in Queensland as increasing numbers of women buy the luxury machines in a quest for independence and self-expression.
Harley-Davidson dealers say the number of sales and inquiries from women is up and owners' groups report rising female membership.
"We sell one in three of our bikes to females," said Geoff Trewin, owner of Rocky Harley-Davidson in Rockhampton.
"A lot of husbands are buying them for their wives. And divorced females is a big market for Harley."
Customers would spend an average of $27,000 on a bike, another $3000 or $4000 on accessories and $2000 on clothing, he said.
Last year was a dismal one for Harley globally, with sales 40 per cent lower in the December quarter giving the company its first quarterly loss since 1993. In Australia, sales in Queensland fell by an estimated 20 or 30 per cent last year, making it the worst-performing state.
But dealers report that sales have improved in January and an established trend of rising female interest has continued. "Sales to women are fabulous," said Phil Beaumont, sales manager at Morgan & Wacker in Brisbane.
Cathy Barry, 44, a Rockhampton nurse, spent $38,000 on a Harley in 2007 following an initial contact with the local Harley Owners Group through its charity work.
"I had breast cancer in 2003 and the Harley chapter took me on a ride and they were so warm and welcoming and I loved being on the bike so much," she said. "I decided that once the chemotherapy was over I would get my own bike."
Ms Barry is now the head of Ladies of Harley in Rockhampton, the female branch of the Harley Owners Group. She says women – mostly in their 30s and older and including a number of divorcees – account for about a quarter of the local HOG membership of 110.

Myrtle Beach may expand its famed motorcycle rallies

Residents worried about a proposed motorcycle rally in North Myrtle Beach extending the spring rally season to three weeks won't have to worry if the plan moves forward with newly proposed changes.
The five-day convention, which had previously been billed as a free-standing event, would coincide with the Harley-Davidson Cruisin' the Coast Spring Rally after organizers agreed to move the dates of the new event earlier in the month of May.
Organizers of the Harley-Davidson spring rally said the Main Street event would likely be the official space for Harley-Davidson corporate and the Harley Owners Group events and be part of the larger rally - which has also been trimmed down to five days.
"The majority of what they would do is having Harley-Davidson there for demo rides and maybe some additional vendors. Basically it would be another location where there was something at Barefoot, Murrells Inlet and then stuff on Main Street. ... That would be kind of like the home base of Bike week," said Mike Shank, marketing director for Myrtle Beach Harley-Davidson. "Generally when corporate brings the demo rides, the Harley Owners Group attends and does an event pin."
Mark Lazarus, who is spearheading the North Myrtle Beach event with Horry County Councilman Harold Worley, said it will bring as many as 10,000 additional bikers to North Myrtle Beach through the HOG group. The two businessmen filed a special events permit application with North Myrtle Beach to be able to house about 40 vendors from May 11 through May 15 at their shared business venture, the O.D. Pavilion Amusement Park at Ocean Boulevard and Main Street. The original application called for later dates in May.
"What we're doing is strictly vending at the Pavilion site. The HOG Group generally holds pinning events at the corporate [sponsored booths]. We're looking at potentially 10,000 HOG members coming through to stop at that pinning event and bringing their business to Main Street," he said. "Would it be out of the question that other motorcyclists will come up to the corporate vending area? No. But, we won't have anything but vending from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. if we can get the city's approval." Read this story on TheSunNews.com

Bill making Harley official motorcycle moves through Wisconsin Legislature
Associated Press
Updated: 02/04/2010 08:26:41 AM CST
Milwaukee-based Harley Davidson would be named Wisconsin's official motorcycle under a bill that's gaining momentum in the Legislature.
The measure passed a state Assembly committee on a partisan 4-2 vote on Wednesday with Democrats backing it and Republicans against. It can now be taken up by the full Democratic-controlled Assembly.
It must pass there and the Democratic-controlled Senate before it heads to Gov. Jim Doyle for his consideration.
Bill sponsor Rep. Leon Young says Harley has been a good company not just for Wisconsin but the entire country. But opponent Rep. Joel Kleefisch of Oconomowoc argued that the designation amounted to just a "scrap or crumb" for the company that was hurt by recent business tax increases.
