HD Museum

Anyone ever go? It's gonna be like 65 out here today so I figure what the hell I might as well take a ride to Milwaukee and check it out.

Never went. I was going to take my son there but haven't gotten around to it yet. Probably a good trip over the winter weekend for me. I'd be interested to hear about it if you go.

So last time my trip got postponed, but today I made it out, great museum, real working bikes from 1903 to present most of them unrestored, plenty of fun interactive exhibits, the amount of bikes and memorabilia was crazy. geouhl you should def take the trip out there well worth it. I must say.... I was a little upset to see that mine was the only bike in the parking lot though!

Visited the one in York many years ago, left a lasting impression






I received quite a welcome in 84 when I rode up on my new Evo FLHTC, sales weren't that great and the employees were thankful

Really appreciate the pics and info. Will definately take my son up there sometime in the not too distant future. Don't know if I'll make it up there on two wheels or four as it's getting nasty out now.
