From what I understand the tsunami HD is there. I figured it would be on display in Japan.

Take your time and see as much as you can. After you finish with the main bldg, go across the sky bridge and take the elevator up to the 3rd floor (Archive area). It's a small area up there but you can look through the Glass and see guys working on bikes for the museum, some old Harley Bicycles and some really cool history. They have racks and racks of bikes that you can see, I think it's 3 or 4 levels of racks along with some really unusual ****.

Like IronAss said , TAKE YOUR TIME ! There is soooo much cool chit to see ... the whole history of H.D. ! I think its $15.00 to get in and well worth it in my book ! Dont forget your camera ! And go across the river and have a drink and a look at the Iron Horse Hotel !!

I hear they are about to unveil a new display. Secret reports say its a service manager automatron. Put your credit card in the slot, it debits $25.00, and the guy comes to life, looks you in the eye and says "Nah, that's not a warranty item.... it's normal. They all do that."

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL !!

Remember to thank God for all your blessings this and every day.

Did a similar trip last year. Took my brother and sister who have never ridden a motorcycle to the museum and they loved it.

I went a few years ago. It is a really worthwhile experience. Was $16 then. Spend a whole day at least. I really like it. Going to try to go next year again.

The Harley Museum is easily worth the price of admission. The other museum you should try to see is the Packers Hall of Fame while you are at Lambeau Field. Have fun!
