    What are the decals on the bottom of the panniers ? They look reflective ? Custom made or off the shelf ?

    I got a sneak peek at the Harley Christmas Catalog. They have seat covers that look like they have been tattooed. Some of tats say, "Darlene" , "Mom", "Born to Ride" , "RIP Mad Dog", "When I die send me to Sturgis". All the tats of women look like Dolly Parton without a bra.

    Another sexist marketing scheme by Harley IMO.

    I was told that as a kid, I ate everything my mother put in front of me, that would make me gullible, do I believe you? Sounds plausible, if not, maybe your on to a great marketing gimick. Dolly Partons ta-tas on old leather, sounds like some of the leather-ee tattooed wimmins I have seen. :yikes:

    I'm waiting for the more international versions where Mom is changed to Mum.

    I am of the opinion that fussy eaters might be best served by eating off trenchers unless they are gluten intolerant. Kind of Brit version of Pizza.
