The 2020s won't be any more collectible than the 2003s.

Harley's moving the 2020's somewhere. Cannonball HD in Terre Haute just had twenty nine 2020 bikes unloaded yesterday.

Brilliant logic! Will the bike be for sale after your significant other kills you for buying it?
That’s how that’d play out at my house....

Well that pretty seals the deal with no Revolution Max bikes this year if that quote about not shipping any more to a majority of dealers. What will drive people to dealers then?

"They [the dealership] really appreciated the business." May this be the new norm. Sometimes a dose of humility and reality is a good thing.

We all want Harley to make it through this healthy and strong - for our benefit. There's nothing wrong with that - we're all winners then.
