While this is possible, it's also possible that it was included because a Harley Davidson is a distinctive motorcycle to most people.

You say Harley and most people get a pretty specific mental image. Say Kawasaki Vulcan and the average person will probably picture a sport bike.

Edit: Apparently HDs aren't as common in New Zealand as the US either. In 2023 Honda alone sold more than double the new bikes of Harley.
