Default Top three things Harley could do better!!!

Hello,

I am doing a case study on HD and I'm looking for what real Harley owners have to say about the company.

The direction their heading?

The styles?

Are their competition gaining ground?

Quality?

What can Harley do to reach a younger demographic.

Thanks in advance for any comments you may have.

Joel

#1 Stop over producing there bikes.
#2 Become more customer oriented (or make sure the dealers that arent are held accountable).
#3 Make it so you don't have to add 5000 bucks worth of add ons to make it nicer aka exhausts, seats.
These are only a couple of things that I could think of. Overall am damn satisfied with mine.

Two thoughts...

1. No double posting.

2. If you're going to join a forum for the sole purpose of personal gain, how about an introduction first?

I'm locking this thread, and providing a link to the other one.
