Harley-Davidson Sings Silent Night, Kind Of [Video]

Here's a nifty Xmas greeting from the MoCo, in the shape of a bikes rumbling to the tune of popular carol Silent Night.
While the idea is truly lovely and creative, I could not feel that the sound is a bit "too perfect" and the transitions between various rpm sound more like a MIDI track then like an actual bike.

New Harley-Davidson have ride-by-wire throttle systems and this makes acceleration extremely precise, but it's hard to believe that the engine will simply "jump" across several hundreds rotations per minute as smoothly and flawlessly as this video shows.

Can't wait to call some of my riding friends and try out some musical theme. Wonder if it works with a boxer, too...

The idea is still lovely, and put a smile on my face..
