The island is indeed golden. Without the quotes. It is this part of the island, between Sofiyskaya Naberezhnaya (Sofia embankment) and Bolotnaya Square. But for several years here only abandoned construction.

Hence the 150 metres to the Kremlin. You can look in the windows Grand Kremlin Palace (where at the time of writing these lines is held ceremony of inauguration of the third President of Russia D.A.Medvedev), or see the bell-ringers at the Ivan the Great Bell.

Оne day in the future.

Here there is all. From mopeds up to Honda Gold Wing, Harley-Davidson and Honda Valkyrie.

Harley-Davidson in Moscow
Salon Harley-Davidson. Moscow, st. Krasnaya Presnya, 8/1.

The history of the legendary brand begun in 1903, when William S. Harley and Arthur Davidson made the first motorcycle.
In Russia the opportunity to buy official Harley-Davidson came only after 102 years - in 2005.

On Harley motorcycles like to drive: Arnold Schwarzenegger who got on it in road accident, Gerard Deparde, also repeatedly happened in road accident, in a condition of alcoholic intoxication, Bruce Willis, Bono, Pierce Brosnan, and of course Mickey Rourke - man-motorcycle!

P.S.

Sorry, Arni, with all due respect to Harley. But I still like the Yamaha XV 1700PC Road Star Warrior ;-)
