it seems a lot of people forget HD is a business, and part of their business is to convince us we are a family.....

That sucks I belong to our Local HOG Chapter. I agree that if the HD rules mean that you need to have a Dealership sponsor and your sponsor Dealership closes why should the Chapter be penalized. I do not see any reason why another Dealership can not sponsor you guys the rules need to be changed. Have you discussed this with your Regional Rep?

Could be but you could be riding a Yamazuzki to day if it weren't for those old guys,They are the ones who bought Harleys in the 60s and 70s and kept them alive.
