O NE COMPANY, ONE TeAM, ONE DIRECTION In the spirit of this new mantra from the Harley-Davidson Motor Company, we have been working very hard as their partner on the global stage to represent the true spirit of Canada with passion and pride, as well as sharing our own special and unique love for the Brand and riding from here in the Great White North. Our Canadian uniqueness was on clear display at the H.O.G.® Officer Training (HOT) event held in Buffalo, New York, this past April. With 133 Chapter representatives from Canada, including impressive attendance numbers from our Retailers, it was interesting to see the integrated dynamics from both sides of the border. To start off the event, there were two areas of focus presented for H.O.G.® Chapters this year, which has been a big component of HOT worldwide: SIMPLIFY — Strip out all of the fluff and unnecessary meetings and focus more on what you love to do the most: ride and have fun! GROW — Welcome new people who are curious about the Harley-Davidson® lifestyle and show them how great and fun it is to be a part of H.O.G.® and a Chapter. Most of us know someone who rides a motorcycle that may not be our preferred brand, and more often that not, we have ribbed them about when they are going to get a “real” bike, like a Harley® bike! Deep down they may aspire to own an H-D® bike, but for some reason they just haven’t yet taken that step. I would love to hear ideas from our members on ways in which we can better help make this connection for them, or tell us your story on how you may have converted a lost soul to get on the best Brand in the world. Send us your riding stories, photos and letters as well, so that we can share them with the rest of your H.O.G.® family across the country. You never know when you may spark the need for a similar adventure in someone else. In an effort to encourage you to share your thoughts and ideas, we have also included a special survey in this edition of HOG® Magazine Canada (page 11). We would love to get your feedback on the new look and feel of the magazine — what you want to see more or less of, what current H.O.G.® benefits you use, what you would like to see added, how you are enjoying your overall experience with H.O.G.®, and what would make you consider staying on as part of the family. Regardless of why you are a member, riding a motorcycle on the open road has to be one of the most invigorating and liberating experiences in the world. Riding a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle multiplies that feeling by 10. Have a safe journey and fun ride!

  • Minnesota Motorcycle Monthly
    Minnesota Motorcycle Monthly Winter 2002/03 All Business Jet Yamaha FJR1300 by Kevin Wynn and Sev Pearman by Kevin Wynn This is your pilot speaking. Please fasten your safety gear; we are clear for takeoff on runway 210 Left. In a few seconds we will reach our cruising speed of (well, never mind). You are flying today aboard the newest, most powerful supersport-touring machine available, the 2003 Yamaha FJR 1300. Enjoy your trip. I guarantee that when it's over, you'll want to turn around and do it all over again." And with that, I rolled out of the dealership's parking lot aboard one of the most talked about motorcycles of the past year. When the FJR 1300 was introduced in Europe in 2000, the clamor started. Motorcycle journalists invited for Euro test rides raved about the power and handling of Yamaha's first purpose-built sport touring machine since the GTS1000. When the details started to appear in U.S. magazines, the letters to editors started becoming strident. Why wasn't Yamaha bringing this machine to America? Internet lists started talking about a letter writing campaign. In February 2001 an online petition and discussion list was started by a Norfolk, Virginia minister named Carlton McCleod. Tired of Yamaha's reluctance to import the FJR, he spurred a letter, phone call and petition campaign that undoubtedly helped change the minds of the right people. The petition list alone had over 500 entries. Thanks Carlton. So for 2002, still seemingly timid about it, Yamaha decided to bring the FJR to the US as a 2003 model.
