So Gold Wings can come? They're made here. Of course your local Kawasaki dealer is owned by Americans and hires Americans for staff. Same for all the Japanese brands, really. Same for Triumph, BMW and Ducati.

Oh that is a great idea +100 to that

Splatter, I did the profits stay here, i.e. not in Japan, also I was actually kidding but if you want to take it seriously go ahead.

no matter what we did - it would have to a lot better than the last state HOG rally I went to. BORING!!!! I worked the registration table - most attendees just wanted their "I was there" bling and left......

I'm all for it, but the logistics sound pretty big. Baby steps I guess. A lot of members here will try to get together at other rallies...which is a good start. Not sure if anyone from here has opened up an HDF booth at a rally or something similar. That would be a good way see what kind of interest there is. It would be a heartbreaker for those that did the work for an HDF Rally and the attendance would be low, for any number of reasons. But knowing the committment of the members here, I'm sure it can fly.
