Just go old school

Win on Sunday, sell on Monday...isn't that what they used to say?? I have an Indian dealer located about 3 miles from me.. Nice shop, I occassionally buy accessories there. Bought some riding gloves there about three weeks ago. Better than that, I usually see Indian motorcycles running on the highway around here......3 or 4 times a year. None of them are flat tracking though.

Runs better than my 2018 RGS with a Stage 3 and FP3 (maybe not as fast, as it is only a 107, but smooth, cool, etc.).

What does this have to do with Harley-Davidson’s current lack of success in flat track?

I own a Harley and a Indian. This bike gets more compliments than any Harley I've ever owned. Nothin homely about this. Now look at Harleys latest offering the Sportster S.... Hopefully HD will do better with the Sportster classic.

Harley couldn’t win, so they picked up their marbles and went home.

Oh, wait...

The "youngin's" here have no idea as to what you're referring too :>)
