You see all the threads on here proclaiming Harley's doom...Harley does have competition they have never had before...themselves...I have never seen a gut of used bikes on the market like there is right now.[/QUOTE]

I could have gone out and bought another new Harley but they have become cheap throw away crap in my opinion, see avitar. The bike I wanted had to have some character, after all isn't that what biking is all about? I am glad I bought what I did, it will fill the need at 1/5 the cost. Good luck to HD but I think the hand writing is on the wall. Mike

I'm thinking it's demographics, hence H-D trying to target new markets.

I'm also picking a lot of parts from older guys who's knees or back has gone and who are dropping out.
