Hot Dreams....










Harley-Davidson Motor Company (NYSE: HOG, formerly HDI[2]) is an American manufacturer of motorcycles based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The company sells heavyweight (over 750 cc) motorcycles designed for cruising on the highway. Harley-Davidson motorcycles (popularly known as "Harleys") have a distinctive design and exhaust note. They are especially noted for the tradition of heavy customization that gave rise to the chopper-style of motorcycle. [3] [4]

Harley-Davidson attracts a loyal brand community,[5] with licensing of the Harley-Davidson logo accounting for almost 5% of the company's net revenue ($41 million in 2004).[6] In 2003, the Buell Motorcycle Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harley-Davidson,[7] the same year that the Motor Company celebrated its 100th birthday. The Motor Company supplies many American police forces with their motorcycle fleets.[8]

    Beautiful rendering of a dream. A motorbike was always my dream. The closest "thing" to a motorbike I ever had was a Velosolex.

    Oh, well I remember that unique bicycle called "Velosex"...I think that's something that was known only in Switzerland, or maybe in Western Europe...I don't know...

    Thanks for your comment, Peter!

    Thanks you Carol,

    for your commenting. It's a big fun to photograph those "hot" bikes. Try it also one day, I'm sure in GB they are also roaming around in the streets.:-)
