Default Harley declining sales
Harley-Davidson sales continue to decline

Everyone knows sales have slowed for multiple reasons, though fiscal Q1 results show profits increased nearly 6%, and share NAV appreciated as well.
I haven't had time to dig into their balance sheet as to why or to the accuracy of this article.

What is your point? I'm not sure this is "news" for anyone.

Next up, HD parts and motorclothes available at your local Big Lots. I smell a partnership in the works.

That’s some creative accounting
sales dow. operating income down. shares and profits up.
Stockholders are sucking MoCo dry.

so increased profits isn't news for anyone. Hmmm....I would have guessed the opposite based upon a decrease in sales.
