HD William is he for real?

HD William

Bay Area native - decided being a corporate stooge would be more fun if I dressed like a pirate and bought a Harley. As you can see, its worked for me and now I am feared and respected whilst riding my HOG and drinking martinis at the Royal Exchange. Or scotch.... I like scotch... mmm mmm mmm scotch.

States he own a Road King but hates Sporties. Sportsters are the Flag ship of the HD line if they didn’t sell that line of bike they would not be able to bullied any other of their bikes.

He has also stated he has met sonny and he said he is a member of a club.

Has anyone seen any pics of him and this club or a website, facebook, my space anything to show that this Tool is for real?

And if you don’t like it HD to bad not like you can do anything about it

Update:

What would it take to get him mad enough to want to ride out here and face me in the ring? For a full contact fight? If he is as big as he says he is he would have 50lbs over me at least.

Update 2:

I hope I don’t come off that way. I don’t do the gay pirate/Fonzie look. I am going more for the cowboy on a steel horse look. And I don’t think I am some Bad boy on a bike I just ride.

    You won't ever get him mad enough, Sarge.

    He's for real, a for real instigator, at least.

    It seems he only shows up once in a while now, not as constantly as before.

    He must be having a harder time coming up with new material.

    Lattes and spritzers, not martinis and scotch.

    He had a picture up there for a while, all done up in black jacket and chaps. Who's to say that was really him though. I don't know. Don't care anymore either. There was a time he got under my skin for a bit, then I realized what he was up to. I used to give him the old quote "Go away kid, ya bother me". It's not even worth that effort anymore. I will say that I do still read all his questions. He's got a larger entertainment factor than the rest of the crowd.

    Amen FTW. No I do not think HD Willy is for real and seriously doubt that he owns a Harley. Sometimes he can be witty and almost funny if you don't take him seriously, but much of the time it is just a sarcastic regurgitation of the same old tired Harley rhetoric. Of course at least he is trying to be funny in his own strange way. It's folks like ninebadthings that really upset me. I don't even own a Harley but attitudes like his that draw a line between fellow motorcyclist aren't good for anyone. He admits in his answer to this question that it is the way some Harley riders look that bothers him. Last time I checked that was just blatant bigotry. There's enough of that in the world as it is. Maybe he just has an inferiority complex, who knows. As to Freak Show's answer, I didn't realize there was some special criteria one has to meet or a certain score on the "cool meter" you had to reach before buying a Harley. Why worry about anyone else's motive for riding whatever they choose?

    Unfortunatly HD William is probably a real Harley owner. In recent years there have been a large number of "Rich Urban Bikers" (known as RUBes) who like the image of the Harley, but are not like the core of tough as nails REAL Harley owners who live to ride and ride to live. Despite guys like HD William Harley will always have the reputation as the best hard core bike on the road. At least he supports America and rides a real bike with the legandary V Twin dressed like a real biker(unlike the little commies who buy tiny little Jap bikes and ride around in neon color leather unitards with plastic knee pads). Ride loud and ride proud...

    No - he's just a clown with a big imagination and a keyboard.Most H.D. owners are just ordinary folk that are proud of their bikes.We don't pull wheelies or scream about the streets like some of the sportsbike crowd.To us it's about the bike - the ride - the freedom.Besides if I have to explain you wouldn't understand.

    Late add on: I ride a sportster Billy boy dip$hit - I don't think I'm god's gift to the biker scene.I'm just Joe average - but if I was gonna hit you I'd use a Kenworth truck!

    There are a million of these guys out there, but many more people that have HD's that are not like this.

    I am a Honda guy, I always have been, and I likely will be for a long time into the future. I have no desire to parade around like a jacka**, I can be my own jacka** with or without my bike!

    Folks, the bike is the conveyence, and then there is the journey and destination, in which I enjoy the journey most.

    Have your HD, that is fine, even stir the pot occasionally, that is in good fun too, but please don't ask me to take any of it seriously, there is really nothing to take serious.

    First off, many male HD riders consider Sportsters to be "girl" bikes. I still haven't figured that one out. As far as the HD guys all wanting to look like bada$$es wearing black leather and such, they're no different than the sport bike kids wearing their one piece racing leathers trying to look like a real live racer or canyon carver. For that matter, it's no different than the teenage girl fashions for those that want to look like Madonna and women's fashions for those who want to look like the women showing up at the Grammys. It's human nature, nothing else and is practiced by both sexes of all ages all over the world.

    Actually, he's NOT a Harley rider, but a disguised Harley hater (probably Chester reincarnated), trolling around to get a rise outta people. Read his "questions" carefully, even "between the lines", and you'll figure it out that he's trying the reverse psych to display his bias.

    I actually like 9badteeths answer.

    To me that's the key!

    Too many take themselves too seriously!

    My friends brother rides a Roadking. He has ridden HD since selling his Norton in about 1980. He is laid back and cool. He doesn't have any of the fake attitude. He has the leather jacket and black boots, but for some reason they just look natural instead of looking like a Halloween costume. Since he doesn't take himself too seriously, he actually GETS TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

    If HD William is for real, he is exactly the sort of douche that causes other riders to be suspicious of the HD crowd.

    Even though I don't own a HD now, I have in the past, and I will probably own another. I have been around that crowd for years. There are tons of great people and great riders who are out on Harleys. It's a shame that the "fake biker/weekend badass" make the whole group look bad.

    Motorcycles are supposed to be fun. A person should smile when they are riding!

    He is really the Easter Bunny, just wants a new tough-guy HD rider image! Then he can deliver HD products instead of eggs.
