That's only because talking about HD's financial results gets threads sent to Siberia. If only tires were more controversial...

I sure hope all that crap is in the past.My bike which I loved and bought because it was the last of the twin cams (2016 SGS) flooded in tropical storm Imelda.The HD shop I'm bringing it to flooded also. Went by there Saturday and they're still not open but lots of workers rebuilding the place.I went in anyway and spoke to the manager and he said they'll more than likely total it which means I'll be buying an M8.2020 is on the list cause I don't trust the 19's.

What make# you think you should trust a ‘20 more than a ‘19.

I have 30,000 trouble free M8 miles on ‘17s.
