My tractor doesn't have any chrome nuts.

 

They're only included on the CVO Ford tractors.

 

H-D need a CVO that does not place the investors and their interests over the people by the bikes like the last two CEO's did. Right now its all about making investors happy at the cost of the loyal customer. For us price is going up, quality down and they are removing stuff from the bike and using cheeper parts.

 

damn, they are expensive enough as it is. Tractors are an interestng thing, what else can be 30 years old and still get a decent price? You got 70 year old tractors still in use.

 

Thank you for posting this list, I know its on the HD website, but I never considered the company leadership before. Now, knowing the kind of people that are running the show, it has helped me realize that I dont want to do business with these people. This is a group of people of whom are always looking for a cause, in lieu of making a profit. Without removing these people and replacing them with a more Capitalist minded group of individuals this company will certainly continue to decline. The consumer that shares these same "causes" unfortunately are predominantly individuals that are career students or those that live in their moms basement and have massive student loan debt, a worthless degree in social work and no job. Most actual potential customers want a quality product at a reasonable price and could care less about any of this nonsense.

Its truly sad, to see a former great company be decimated by people who ultimately dont care about it, they are just looking for another line item in the resume.

 

I don't get why you care what industry they come from. We all ride Harleys, and think we know how to to fix the company, but not to much of us have any motorcycle business experience. No interest in having sales manager from local dealer become one.

If they came from Honda or Kawaski I think people would scream about that too. Everybody just assumed the soup guy didn't ride, because he didn't work for a motorcyle company before coming to Harley. Not like there is that many to come from. Not like a utility, which are located all over. A foundry which there many of, ect. Pretty much only related field would be a metric company. Not that I am really against that. But I don't see any less whining.


As far as boards go I wonder what actual interaction they really have with the product. Tons of people on them, and same person will be on multiple boards. I suspect it is more money, invsestors and stock discussions, than what chrome nut to add.
