Quite a reasonable conclusion considering that, these days, "Born to Run" is
more likely to be used hawking Flowmax than as an anthem to hell-raising.
There was an interesting piece in the Wall St. Journal on ageing bikers
several years ago.

Who a) has been to Sturgis (when he was selling biker collectables) and b)
asked many of the various participants to pose for photographs (which I lost
in a move eight years ago, sadly.) Need I add that I've lived to tell the
tale....

As a Harley owner I resemble those remarks.  <g>  You are spot on that 
Harley riders come from a variety of backgrounds. Also there are 
subgroups within the model lines.  A small percentage of us ride Harley 
VRods which are water cooled, Porsche engine-designed  bikes disowned 
by some Harley traditionalists.  Also, many of us do not participate in 
the "lifestyle" aspects and just enjoy puttering along with our Leicas  
in the saddlebags (to stay on topic).
