BEGIN THE JOURNEY LETTER FROM THE CEO >>

<<< IT’S NOT JUST A RIDE. IT’S FREEDOM. >>>

....................................................................................... { IDENTITY 02.SPRING’10.HARSHYLA SINGH.TODD HEDGPETH }

Dear Harley Davidson Community, Since its founding in 1903, Harley Davidson has been represented by a variety of marks, symbols, and logos. Unfortunately, the wide variety of symbols blurred our image, and failed to present a strong, consistent, institutional identity to our many publics around the state, the nation, and the world.

At the request of the Board of Trustees and with my full support, staff in Communications and Marketing conducted a comprehensive review of our communications and marketing procedures and materials. We were not surprised that one of the major recommendations from that review called for a more unified graphic identity system than we presently have. A consistent graphic identity is essential to establishing a strong and familiar institutional presence with our key constituencies, with prospective students and their parents, and in the national arena. This style guide is intended to help address that lack of graphic identity.After extensive consultation with focus groups we have decided on a modification of the woodcut logo as our new, unified graphic identity. This logo represents our history and tradition, but has been altered slightly to represent a somewhat more dynamic and open image.

This logo is now the official “face” Harley Davidson, and is to be used on all stationery, printed materials, Web sites, and videos. So that we can achieve our goal of consistency, no other signature or logo type will be approved for any communications.To ensure consistency, we have developed this style guide that outlines the standards for its use. While the standards leave significant room for creativity, it is very important that each and every administrative and academic unit adhere to these guidelines as we produce materials that represent the institution. By adhering to these guidelines, you can help us visually define the institution in a strong, consistent manner that will be instantly recognizable as Harley Davidson.

Please join me in proudly incorporating these new standards and our new logo into every facet of our communications effort.

BEGIN THE JOURNEY HISTORY >>

<<< IT’S NOT JUST A RIDE. IT’S FREEDOM. >>>

.......................................................................................

FROM 1903 UNTIL NOW.Harley-Davidson, often abbreviated H-D or Harley, is an American motorcycle manufacturer. Founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, during the first decade of the 20th century, it was one of two major American motorcycle manufacturers to survive the Great Depression. Harley-Davidson also survived a period of poor quality control and competition from Japanese manufacturers.The company sells heavyweight (over 750 cc) motorcycles designed for cruising on the highway. Harley-Davidson motorcycles (popularly known as "Harleys") have a distinctive design and exhaust note. They are especially noted for the tradition of heavy customization that gave rise to the chopper-style of motorcycle.[6] Except for the modern VRSC model family, current Harley-Davidson motorcycles reflect the styles of classic Harley designs. Harley-Davidson's attempts to establish itself in the light motorcycle market have met with limited success and have largely been abandoned since the 1978 sale of its Italian Aermacchi subsidiary.Harley-Davidson sustains a loyal brand community which keeps active through clubs, events, and a museum. Licensing of the Harley-Davidson logo accounts for almost 5% of the company's net revenue.

THE HARLEY DAVIDSON TIMELINE //

IT’S NOT JUST A RIDE. IT’S FREEDOM.

It’s not just a ride. It’s freedom. This is our USP when it comes to riding and experiencing a Harley Davidson. We wan’t our customers to feel like getting onto a Harley is like getting away. Getting away to a fantasy that they’ve always had at the back of their mind. Every person who rides the Harley Davidson experiences a sense of freedom that is personal to them.

Dear Mr. English:

The first paragraph of a typical business letter is used to state the main point of the letter. Begin with a friendly opening; then quickly transition into the purpose of your letter. Use a couple of sentences to explain the purpose, but do not go in to detail until the next paragraph.

Beginning with the second paragraph, state the supporting details to justify your purpose. These may take the form of background information, statistics or first-hand accounts. A few short paragraphs within the body of the letter should be enough to support your reasoning.

Finally, in the closing paragraph, briefly restate your purpose and why it is important. If the purpose of your letter is employment related, consider ending your letter with your contact information. However, if the purpose is informational, think about closing with gratitude for the reader's time.

Sincerely,

Sergio Robles123 Winner's RoadNew Employee Town, PA 12345

Now we’ll admit, we here at RideLust usually favor crotch rockets above any other type of motorcycle, but we’re objective enough to give credit where credit’s due. Even though it probably won’t leave Messrs. Harley and Davidson quaking in their steel-toed boots, the Honda Fury does offer some sizable competition in the touring bike arena. Definitely geared towards the “Orange County Chopper” crowd, the Honda Fury features the longest wheelbase ever found on any production

Honda motorcycle, as well as what Honda calls a “furious” exhaust note.
