Default I need your brains real quick please.
I am starting a t-shirt/apparel company. I want it to appeal to young Harley riders. Can you help me think of a name. I have the artist and plenty of ideas, just need a name so we can start working on the logo. I would appreciate any and all suggestions.

There are young Harley riders? Red Flag: market too small. And shrinking.

Young Harley riders? In these parts the average age of the Harley guys I see around is probably about 50. Me?..I'm 65 and love wearing T shirts, especially in the summer months. I don't get why you would want to exclude such a large demographic.

Lol that is the fastest growing market for Harley and is now the market that Harley has the most focus on. Just look at their website and commercials. Harley is very vocal about the younger rider being their focus and have posted stats on how those numbers are steadily increasing.

I am not excluding a certain market. Most of the older guys where the classic Harley Ts and I don't see them wearing the newer fashioned type of T. The younger rider dresses different than the older rider. I would hate for my post to be too focused on the comparison between the traditional Harley rider and the new target market for Harley and the fastest growing market which is the younger rider.
