Report of Independent Auditors
Holiday Rambler LLC
Employees' Retirement Plan Committee
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of Holiday Rambler Employees' Retirement Plan (the Plan) as of December
31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in its net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules
of assets held for investment as of December 31, 1994, and transactions or
series of transactions in excess of 5 percent of the current value of the plan
assets for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of complying with the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and are not a required part
of the basic financial statements. The Fund Information in the statement of net
assets available for plan benefits and the statement of changes in net assets
available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis
rather than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in
net assets available for plan benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules
and Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
our audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

Holiday Rambler
Employees' Retirement Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1994
1. PLAN DESCRIPTION
GENERAL
The Holiday Rambler Employees' Retirement Plan (the "Plan") is a contributory
defined contribution plan that covers substantially all employees of Holiday
Rambler LLC (the "Company"), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Harley
Davidson, Inc. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a complete
description of the Plan.
COMPANY AND PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS
Participants may elect to have up to 16%, up to a limit of $9,240, of their
compensation contributed to the Plan on a tax-deferred basis under Section
401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. These contributions are excluded from the
participant's current wages for federal income tax purposes. No federal income
tax is paid on the tax-deferred contributions and earnings thereon until they
are withdrawn from the Plan by the participant.
Matching Company contributions are made equal to 100% of the participant
deferral contributions up to 3% of participant compensation, net of forfeitures,
provided the Company is not in a negative retained earnings position. In the
event the Company has negative retained earnings, the Company, at its
discretion, may make a matching employer contribution in such amounts as the
Company shall determine. The Company, at its discretion, also may make matching
contributions in excess of 3% of participant compensation for any plan year in
which the Company has net income. There were no discretionary Company
contributions made in 1994 or 1993.
PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution, the
related Company contribution and earnings thereon. The account is charged for
benefit payments. Forfeitures of terminated participants' nonvested accounts
revert to the Company to be used to reduce future contributions. Funds in a
participant's account can be invested, at the direction of the participant, in
any of the following funds: MaGic+ Fund, Diversified Equity Fund, Growth Equity
Fund, Balanced Fund, International Fund, and Harley-Davidson, Inc. Common Stock
Fund.
1. PLAN DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED)
VESTING
Participants eligible to participate prior to January 1, 1991, are vested 100%
in the balance of their account attributable to Company contributions.
Participants eligible to participate on or after January 1, 1991, vest 20% per
year of service in the balance of their account attributable to Company
contributions. Participants are always 100% vested in the balance of their
account attributable to their contributions.
BENEFIT PAYMENTS AND WITHDRAWALS
Upon normal retirement at or after age 65; death or disability, if earlier; or
termination of employment (regarding vested benefits), the balance in the
participant's account is paid to the participant or the participant's
beneficiary either in a lump sum, in installments over a fixed period, or by
transfer to another qualified plan. Withdrawals are also permitted for
financial hardship.
Eligible employees may take out a loan to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their
vested benefits. Any such loan shall be repaid, with interest, over a period
not to exceed five years unless the loan is used to purchase a principal
residence.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
The Plan pays for substantially all of the Plan's administrative expenses.
Expenses not paid by the Plan are paid by the Company.
1. PLAN DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED)
INCOME TAX STATUS
The Internal Revenue Service informed the Company on May 1, 1995, that the Plan
is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). As
such, the Plan is exempt from federal income taxes under the provisions of
Section 501(a) of the Code. The Company is not aware of any course of action or
series of events that have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan's
qualified status.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
INVESTMENTS
Investments in common trust funds are valued at fair value, determined by using
the quoted redemption prices reported by the trustee on the last business day of
the year. The Plan's investment in Harley-Davidson, Inc. common stock is valued
at fair value by using its quoted market price reported on the last business day
of the year. Participant loans are valued at the unpaid principal balance.
Guaranteed investment contracts are valued at contract value as reported by the
insurance company. Contract value represents contributions made under the
contract, plus interest at the contract rate, less funds used to pay benefits
and expenses.
CONTRIBUTIONS
Participant contributions are recorded in the period the participant incurs the
salary reduction. Company contributions are accrued in the period in which they
become obligations of the Company in accordance with terms of the Plan.
3. INVESTMENTS
The Plan's investments, except for its unallocated insurance contracts (see Note
4), are held by Society National Bank, Indiana (the "Trustee") and Society Trust
Company, N.A. under a trust agreement effective October 21, 1985. During 1994
and 1993, investments held by the Plan (including investments bought, sold, as
well as held during the year) appreciated in fair value as follows:
