What is Willie G's last name?

Answer 1

Willie G.Davidson as in "Harley and Davidson" "Harley Davidson" He is the great,great,great grand( I was unable to ascertain how many greats there should be,so I counted generations) son of William A.Davidson co founder of the now infamous motorcycle company and to the best of my knowledge is still alive.

Willie came on board in1963 after completing higher education in graffic arts and design, working in the automotive design field (including Ford, he would later, use those long time ties to forge the joint relationship of ford and HD. Both companies were founded in 1903) he was at first considered a radical by the conservative upper management, but, eventually broke through and is now considered one of the saving graces of the legend and brand of Harley Davidson. He brought "Factory customs" to the brand, was an organizing force and one of the key executives to initiate the employee buy back of the company from AMF, and is most noted for the introduction of the "Willie G.tribute skull" logo to the brand. The skull was always controversial in HD because of its association with death and so called "Outlaw" motorcycle clubs, Willie did not care for skulls himself,but said "it's not always about what we(the company) want the customers want it so we are obligated to give them what they want.

He designed the Willie G. tribute skull as a dedication to fallen riders to remove the evil connotation and hence a new and popular logo for the brand was created.
