Harley gets younger motorcycle riders, one celebrity at a time

 Motorcycle
manufacturers who sell cruiser-style bikes are actively
marketing to the younger riders, hoping to pull them out of
the saddle of their sportbikes.
Harley-Davidson has in part redesigned
some of their
motorcycle line, as well as much of its apparel with a
certain edge and attitude to attract the younger rider. If a
certain celebrity is any indication, the marketing may be
working.
Celebrity
website 'I'm not obsessed' has published pictures of teen
heart-throb Jesse Metcalfe out on Los Angeles streets on his
brand new Rocker motorcycle (click to enlarge picture on
right).
For those
not in the know with the latest celebrity heart-throb 411,
Jesse Metcalfe came to fame as the gardener seduced by one
of the 'Desperate Housewives' in 2004 when USA Today named
him the [show's] hottest sex symbol. In 2006 he starred in
the teen movie 'John
Tucker must die' and according to
Wikipedia, Metcalfe has
four movies to be released over the next two years.
The
celebrity website 'I'm
not obsessed' has four other pictures of Metcalfe
and his Harley-Davidson Rocker motorcycle.
