Talking Harley owners and Christmas presents.

It seems like if you own a Harley at Christmas time and people don't know what to get you they always end up at the Harley shops buying you T shirts, sweat shirts or coffee mugs or anything related to Harley Davidson. I love it another good thing about owning a Harley. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.

Count yourself lucky. Many of my relatives REFUSE to buy anything for either my bike or me that says Harley even with my suggestions. Sad really.

That is exactly how I end up with all the shirts that I wear. And I have a bunch. I wish the dealer would suggest the gift cards heavier when they see these people coming in to buy gifts.

I guess im lucky also. My girl asked what I wanted and I just said to get me a Harley gift card. She told me to make a list of parts I was planning on putting on the bike for next riding season so I did and she picked a couple and gave them to me. My birthday and Christmas are close together so I got a double whammy of Harley parts, lol. I wasn't expecting that.

Merry Christmas!

It's true. No one will get me anything for my bike specifically, but you are right. I get a lot of miscellaneous HD items. Some are, eh. But most are pretty cool.
Merry Christmas!

i dont want to be a rolling billboard, thankfully my girl knows it, and told her parents NOT to get me a MoCo shirt. I have a couple, but i am picky about whats on the back as alot of dealers plaster their name all over the back. No way I (or someone i know) am paying $35 to advertise for them.

I know what you mean. I have probably 5 or 6 T-shirts from Rocket H-D in Huntsville, AL. We only see my wife's uncle and aunt once a year and really all they know about me is I ride a Harley. I still appreciate getting them since it's still better than getting something I don't care even a little about.
