At the Seattle International Motorcycle Show a week ago, I was confused by Harley-Davidson’s new math. On their logo, it says 105 years, an enviable record for any modern company, but the 1908 - 2008 dates don’t work for me. Am I missing something ... or is Harley just math challenged?
Below a couple of bikes I liked.
One of the fun things for me at the show was to see the cut-away engines. I liked the photo above, but loved the one below, which I call “Cyninder Head.”

Cylinder Head is actually an alien or maybe a robot.

Your math is fine, but the picture obscures the date on the badge a little. The badge says 1903-2008. Here’s the HD history to back it up: http://www.harley-davidson.com/wcm/Content/Pages/H-D_History/history.jsp?locale=en_US

Man, to little to late...I was going to hit you up with a history lesson, but looks like my speedy sis got to it first!
