- The legendary Willie G. Davidson has a new book out, titled "Ride Free, A Memoir", where he details his life as the grandson of one of the founders of Harley-Davidson Motor Company.
Willie G.’s father was a long-time president who brought him on board as its first 'Design Director’ in 1963. His artistry in motorcycle design led the way to a new era of beautiful, custom-looking bikes that came off the production line.
Willie G, as he is affectionately known, stayed with the company for nearly 50 years, retiring in 2012 as Senior Vice-president and Chief Styling Officer.

Wish Willie "G" and his team , well git more involved with Harley-Davidson and git rid of the German CEO.
😊I've got a picture of Willie G. sitting on my old Harley kr750. I need to have that made into a 8x10 and frame it. Glad to see he's still hangin in there.
Mr Davidson. Its not a hobby and you're the man 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Tell him get rid of that ceo and these BS dealership that’s over charging for these Harley bikes.
Met him a couple of times very gracious down to earth. Been riding Harleys since 1987 on harley number 7 now been hundreds of thousands of miles. It is a passion!
Nothing like the ride,of a Harley.
I met him about 40 years ago at a ride in LA, a humble, polite, great guy
You're looking good Willie G! Love who you are as a person. It must be very difficult to see the company being destroyed by the German resident who's now the current President/CEO /Chairman of the Board. It appears that he finagled his way into having so much power (by title and position) that nothing can stop him from turning it into nothing but a licensing play for clothing, footwear, housewares, etc. 120 years of manufacturing motorcycles known throughout the world, and he's killing it off. What's being done to the family owned dealers (being forced out of the business) that MADE Harley Davidson should be a crime. As customers, we're now left with these corporate mega dealerships that absolutely suck. Enough said. Because of these moves, HD's US sales will plummet further over the new handful of years. Died-in-the-wool HD riders no longer looking to buy new HDs - they're shopping other brands now.
My 96 Sportster still going strong. love it😊
Thanks for making Beautiful Motorcycles, that I can't afford Willie G...
I love Willie G
Willie G is a living legend. God bless Willie G
I have had the privilege of riding with Willie G, he is a very down to earth guy. His wife was a beautiful woman, they made a wonderful couple.
Too bad they've lost their way since these guys moved on. After a lifetime of HD's, current management makes me sick
🇺🇸😎 Amazing, my Dad is also just turned 90. 🧡
Happy 91st Birthday Willie
Willie G is one AWESOME DUDE!
Love and best wishes to you Willie G from the land of your forefathers. God bless you sir! 🏴 🏴

Willy G. did fine, but....... look what's now running the company !
