Slynky CatMay 31, 2015A great day out. Listen to the different engine sounds, follow the evolution of the bikes & ogle the outlandish fan modded customs. Makes you understand the loyalty to the Great American Motorcycle.

Elizabeth GApril 23, 2015Fun activity even for people who don't drive a motorcycle. A lot of history, and very well set up. Good food at the restaurant there too, a lot of Wisconsin traditional foods and more.
James CAugust 22, 2014A little pricey but it is worth it. Great information and items to view. Goes through the history and impact of Harley on the US.
Wendy SoucieFebruary 19, 2012Get there early enough to really see all the bikes. There is a Starbuck in the Cafe Racer - so you can recharge and get it all in.
Brendan S.April 1, 2017Great place for a family. There are many things to learn and see. There is a kids area and fun games.
