Should I Purchase Travel Insurance? Travel Tips
This is one of those age-old questions with no definitive answer. It's estimated that 30 percent of Americans purchase travel insurance, which is a drastic increase since 9/11, when less than 10 percent of travelers were insured.
If you're flying on a $150 ticket to see Aunt Irma in Wisconsin, you probably don't need travel insurance. But on a trip such as yours, travel insurance can come in handy if something unexpectedly disrupts your trip. Your first step is to compare the cost of the trip versus the cost of the policy. |
Harley Davidson began is Wisconsin, people love the sound and the design. It is one of 2 motorcycle manufacturers in the United States that mass produces motorcycles.
It took 2 years for William Harley with his buddy Arthur Davidson to work on their idea. The first one built could not climb hills without using pedals, back to the grindstone for improvements. The next one had a larger engine.
In 1904 they finished their prototype, in 1905 more than 12 Harley s were made. In 1907 they made 150 bikes, and sold to government agencies and police departments. In 1907 their V Twin prototype was built, 7 horsepower and went 60 miles per hour. In 1908 450 units were built, 1200 bikes were built in in 1909.
In 1913 they built a factory that was 5 stories tall. In 1914 they led all competition in motorcycle manufacturing across the globe.
Rarely do we think of these young men s accomplishments when we hop on and start these slick machines up, and heading down the highway, addicted to the low pitched deep sound, and certainly we cannot forget the power of these great machines.
