Linda Norman purchased this 2011 Harley-Davidson Softail Deluxe from Allens Alley motorcycles in Portland, Oregon. Before shipping it to her home in Australia, she had this gorgeous custom paint job done by Shadd at Vivid Dragon.

Linda has ridden the Deluxe thousands of kilometers through Australia, and shipped it to the U.S. last May to ride about 3,500 miles through America and Canada. She left the bike in the U.S. so she could come back this May to ride more, but has a Harley-Davidson Street Glide in Australia for when she’s home.

  1. Linda is a highly experienced rider with exceptional riding skills—a discerning Harley-Davidson owner for many years. Linda is a role model to many lady riders down under, and a great person to boot.

  2. I’m back over in the US right now. I’ve ridden down the Oregon coast to California, across to Lake Tahoe and down to Mammoth Lakes. From there we rode to Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, and are presently in the beautiful town of Ouray, Colorado.
