Urban Legend: The King's Harley
Urban Legend
The King’s Harley
An average man is cruising down the street and comes across an old Harley-Davidson motorcycle for sale. The man buys the bike for a cheap deal thinking he can just put some money and parts into it to get it up and running. Due to the age of the bike from the 1950’s, the man is obligated to call Harley to get the parts. When describing the bike to Harley representatives, he is being transferred over and over until the CEO of the company comes on the line. The CEO asks the man if there is an inscription under the rear fender of the bike and there it was, reading: “To Elvis, Love, Priscilla.” The CEO offers the man $4 million for the bike and he accepts. The man becomes a multi-millionaire over night.
