HDS new partner?
There was talk a while back about Harley and Ducati getting cozy, looks like another Italian marque is in their sights. Forbes Magazine is reporting that Harley Davidson is in advanced talks to buy Italy’s MV Agusta!

From what \\;I have heard MV Augusta is in pretty bad shape. \\; \\; They make some really sweet looking bikes and the fastest bike in the world. \\; I think this would be a good choice for Harley. \\; Buell's arent bad bikes to ride but they are ugly and cheap looking. \\; Something you would never say about a MV Augusta. \\; I thought about buying an MV but part availability seems to be a problem.

MV's are badasssss, but exxxxpensive! I'm not sure how HD could blend that into their product mix. Heck, they can't even blend their own Buells!

From Cyril Huze's Blog... \\;
Italian newspaper Messaggero reported (without mentioning sources) that Harley-Davidson is in negotiation to buy most of the debts from motorcycle manufacturer MV Augusta. We know for sure that the Italian company has around 200 million euros (about 320 million US dollars) of debt and that businessman Claudio Castiglioni owns 29.6% of the shares
