The charm of Harley is that it adapts to the rider.
Takano: Once again, what do you think is the appeal of Harley?
Uemura: It’s difficult to say. I think it is the feeling of being possessed by the rider. There is a feeling that once you ride it, you can’t get away from it.
Takano: You mean that Harley comes to you?
Uemura: Yes, that’s right. I think Harleys are not as complete as Japanese cars or other bikes. There are a lot of margins and there are still many parts that can be modified by the rider. That’s why I don’t get bored any time soon, and I can ride the bike of my first choice that I want to ride.
Takano: That’s good. I think it’s important to have margins.
Uemura: I think that’s not very common nowadays.
Takano: The more time you spend on it, the more it becomes your own spec.
Celeina: It is truly a partner. Now, I would like to play you a song here. I asked Mr. Uemura to choose a song that he would like everyone to listen to together on the radio at this time. Please tell us the reason for your song selection.
Uemura: I think there were unfortunately many obituaries in 2023. Despite that, The Rolling Stones are still active and released a new album. I chose this song because I thought I had never been so full of hope. I chose “Angry” by The Rolling Stones.
