Mr Earl T. Harley Jr, heir of the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Corporation, died and went to heaven for judgement.

At the Pearly Gates, St. Peter told Mr Harley, "Since you've been such a good man and your motorcycles have changed the world, nay, even become a religious icon for the White mans world; your reward is, you can hang out with anyone you want in Heaven."

Mr Harley thought about it for a minute and then said, "I want to hang out
with God, especially as I have a question for Him."

St. Peter took Mr Harley to the Throne Room and introduced him to God.

He then asked God, "Aren't you the inventor of women?"

God said, "Ah, yes".

"Well," said Mr Harley, "professional to professional, you have some major
design flaws in your invention:

1- There's too much inconsistency in the front-end protrusion;
2- It chatters constantly at high speeds;
3- Most of the rear ends are too soft and wobble too much;
4- The intake is placed way too close to the exhaust;
5- Plus the monthly down time and aggravation are outrageous; and I don't
even want to start talking about the maintenance costs."

"Hmmmm, you do raise some good points," replied God, "hold on."

God went to his Celestial super computer, typed in a few things and waited
for the results.
After a moment God said, "Well, it may be true that my invention seems to
be flawed in some respects, but according to these numbers, more men are
riding my invention than yours."

:p

Is the Harley Davidson a religious icon and symbol of all that is Right? or can devilishly cunning inventions such as the H-D FXSTB Night Train be seen as a symbol of 'Dark Forces' from the underworld, favoured as it is by Hells Angels and other unsavoury denizens of the Biking world .
