That is a shame to see them closing another plant! Hope they can stay in business !

Unlike the majority of motorcycle manufacturers, Harley has only one business. They others have other products to sustain them in the downturns in the motorcycle market. The 90s were another slow time.

I used to hope for them to survive. Now, I don't care. They wait too long to update anything then rush whatever they change to market. My last 2 both had many recalls and MANY problems. I've had a Harley that was taken back under the lemon law. I liked Victory. Better than Indian but we know what happened there. Ive been nothing but happy with my Vaquero since day 1 even before the throttle mod and both Ivan flashes. I just cant see spending 10K more for a lesser bike again just because it say's HD on it

They are coming out with an electric bike to try to get their sales up, but my opinion is that very it won't go over very well.
