An exhibition of vintage and classic Harley Davidson bikes was held with the support of Distinguished Bike Lovers Club here on Sunday. The event was organised at Governor’s House in which more than 50 vintage and classic Harley Davidson bikes, in spick and span condition, from across Pakistan were showcased.

Vintage and classic bikes ranging from Harley Davidson 1200 – 3500 remained the centre of attraction; the visitors could be seen taking selfies with these bikes in the background. “We used to enjoy the sight of such bikes in movies, pictures and on the internet. I am happy to be part of the festival,” a lady visitor said this while expressing her sentiments.

Governor Sindh Imran Ismail while addressing on the occasion said: “The vintage and classic Harley Davidson bikes show has been organised to aware children and youths alike about gradual improvements in the history of bikes manufacturing”, he added.

He observed that bike shows are an important phenomenon and the purpose of these events is to draw everybody’s attention to the technology and evolution of bikes.
