Why FOMO NO IDS RECALL
I just read theCEO of Harley-Davidson made $47,000,00 (that's million) in 2005.I suppose thecompany would cut into profits (and his salary) if they fixed the apparent problem with 07 models and the IDS upgrade. His name is Jeffery Bleustein if you want to write him a letter.Corporate greed is killing the working man in my opinion.

Nick is correct. I believe Ziemer had a total compensation package of about $4.2 mil in 2006. Keep in mind that a CEO's primary allegiance is to the stockholders, and that involves a balancing act of making as much profit as possible while keeping the customers happy with the product and service. Harley probably believes that it reacted enough to keep most of the 07 tourer customers happy with their $100 elbow grease discount on the IDS installation labor. Unfortunately there's not much we can do about executive salaries other than communicating ourdiscontent or boycotting their product.

That just sounds wrong to me, 47 million??? for 1 year. I would have to read that myself, where did you find those numbers?

You can also write a letter to the current CEO except he was previously the CFO and probably not the guy to reach into the HD check book to address an issue that everybody keeps telling me isn't wide spread.
I know.... facts..they just keep getting in the way of a good argument.

HD is benefiting right now, with slow sales and increased inventory, for paying so much attention to the CEO and so little to the customer....

RE: Why FOMO NO IDS RECALL
You guys are guaging what the market is doing today to what the man did prior to April 2005. Wake up, new year, new CEO, new problems. I am sure Ziemer is feeling the heat. You guys think it would be grand having a job like that. Not me.Alotof peoplelook at the money and say's, "Man, I would love to have his job." No thanks. If the stock market fell today, your done. GM's CEO makes a grand an hournot countingstock options.

RE: Why FOMO NO IDS RECALL
How certain are ya'll about the $100.00 elbow grease discount on the IDS installation. I would love to see something in writing that I could take to my stealership to prove that Harley is paying....Bldr
