H.O.G. Brunei Chapter

If you have a rumbling and thundering appetite for motorcycles - namely Harley Davidson, joined CQ for an exclusive insights on the Harley Owners Group (H.O.G.) Brunei Chapter.

The H.O.G. Brunei Chapter will be joining the 5th Malaysia National H.O.G. Rally 2008 in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. The event starts from 28th May till 3rd June 2008.

The Rally is organised by the Harley Motorcycles Owners Club Malaysia Chapter. Harley Owners from Indonesia, Brunei, Singapore, East and West Malaysia, Australia and United States will be attending this Rally.


According to Ladyrider, the riders will ride together and everything has been arranged by the Organiser.

Yesterday morning, CQ had the privileged to meet the Brunei Harley riders when they began their journey from the premises of Harley Davisdson Brunei Chapter in Lambak Kiri.

Errr guys - this is not a toothpaste adverts huhu ... actually CQ had asked Pg Shaminan Pg Salleh - Deputy Director of H.O.G. Brunei Chapter, to take a snap-click of CQ and Bruce ...but instead he was too excited sebakul that he went on straight standing beside Bruce and do his super-mega-watt smile ...urggghhh ... Pg Shaminan - U faham inda apa CQ cakap?? lols - yeah finally CQ did get to pose with Bruce =)

CQ had a rare chance to chat with Bruce Motta. He is the International Manager of Harley Owners Group - based in Wisconsin, Milwaukee - USA. This is his third visit to Brunei. He will visit his friends and collegues in Brunei whenever he makes his trip to this region.

According to Bruce, riding a motobike is like riding a bicycle. You just have to know the techniques and how to balance on the bike... and it is pretty awesome when the bike is a Harley Davidson!

Harley Davidson's Body Parts

" It starts somewhere with a skull. " Ohh yes! CQ found a skull alright huhu on one of the HD motorbike ..cool :)


CQ saw a lucky charm! on the right handlebar

This must be the 'head' where the face, ears, nose and mouth are in one place - the dashboard ..huhu

hmmm the black chest? you have to fill up petrol here to get this beast going vroom vroom ..

the gleaming chrome heart rumbles away with thunder-breathing pulse woooo ..

This is like a saddle bag yeah ..a.k.a. the stomach ..lols - you can keep all your necessities like food, amenities or anything that you want to bring with you on a long journey on the highway ..


woooo the Brunei Press guy is there too :)



Colours of Harley Davidson

This chili red bike is in workshop - as you can see it has no cushion seat, you will sore your butt if sitting on the metal for too long ... ouucchhh


Woooo moss green bike with spots ehh .. looks similar to the one in 'Ghost Rider' huhu - anyway the rider who was riding this machine, is tall and lanky, you can't have a Danny de Vito lookalike riding this one yeahh :)) ..he will have his legs flying in the air lols.



The splat-egg-yolk yellow bike is such a classic
- CQ was astounded by its beauty.

Electric blue bike - err not taken yet, so anyone can still drop by HD shop and get as 'cash & carry' vrooom vrooom ..

awww CQ forgot to claim this one leather jacket from the shop huhu terkarang hahaha



" 105 years ago, a Harley and three Davidsons rolled their first motorcycle out of a tiny wooden shed in Milwaukee. With it they gave birth to an appetite for forward motion that's never yet been satisfied. "
