UPDATES

There is another revision of the game from 1998 that says "(C) 1998 H-D" on the bottom left of the title screen.

Here are the bikes and characters in this game, according to the credits screen:

If the game is set to 'STANDARD' in test mode, and in the Dyna Wide Glide attract demo, Dave will jump when he approaches the mansion near the Beverly Hills checkpoint.
