“For me, it started off so simple: a boy on a motorcycle for the first time tearing through the backyard. It was only a moment in time, but the ride changed something in me — it was the moment where the wild stomped in,” the actor said in a video about the experience. “What started out as a visit to Harley-Davidson to pay my respects turned into a new partnership. I wanted to honor their legacy. … We built a Harley — our memories are woven into the metal — but it’s more than that. It has become a Momoa family heirloom. The legacy is Harley’s, but the memories are ours.”

The actor, also known for his role in HBO’s Game of Thrones adaption, additionally has a clothing line with the motorcycle brand.
