Hello David:
Here in San Francisco, the oldest Harley -Davidson dealership in
the United States is located at 66 Page Street (at Market Street),
(415) 703-9494. They have an extensive ever-changing exhibit of old
motorcycles and their parts, hundreds of photographs of cycling clubs,
their activities and driving record books. They have a collection of
early photos of women cyclists and many flyers and brochures from the
20s, 30s and 40s.
Good luck!

Hello David:
El Paso, Texas is the home of the largest Harley-Davidson dealership in
the United States! A gift shop offering motorcycle memorabilia, leather
jackets, toy motorcycles, stickers, posters, art, limited edition items,
etc. would be a natural earned income idea for your museum. Perhaps your
museum could also offer Friends of the museum memberships. In return,
members would receive a newsletter, maybe a free home page on your site,
discounts on merchandise and other member goodies. Don't forget to
create t-shirts, bumper stickers, and other stuff from your musum which
you can hawk at conferences, fairs, on your web site, cross-post on
motorcycle enthusiasts web sites, the list if endless.
