Harley Davidson Copper Water Still ?

I have a brass & copper water distiller with a name plate reading " Harley - Davidson N.C. " Any ideas regarding the authenticity-origin of this piece ???

Is this part of an old Harly Davidson advertising partnership, similar to the current one with Ole Smoky Moonshine, ???...or just a metal workers crazy project ?
