Of all the stuff that Harley has discontinued, what do you all think they should not have.

My choice is real leather

I have been looking for a HD jacket leather. But at their prices and not being made in the U.S. I will keep looking for a good set made in the U.S.A... I can not afford fox creek leather. HD has gotten as much foreign as any other bike makers.
I do apologize for not being on topic.

I think they should discontinue the idiots who run/own the STEALERSHIPS! Then find people from the good dealerships to run them the way a good dealership should be run!

If I had the cash I would buy out the idiot here where I'm stationed and run the business that's pro-everyone! The d@mn guy just rips everyone off! The guy gives, LEO's, FD and HOG Chapter members discounts...but do you think he'd give his biggest dollar customer a discount, like the MILITARY? SO many of us now on post are talking boycott and taking it all to the local indys or the local Victory dealer for service and parts. I've started everyone on post ordering from Online (I'm a military senior motorcycle mentor) and I know he got hit hard ther...but do ya think he'd care? NAH!

OK...off My soap box!

Give us dealers that care of discontinue them! Anyone wanna go partners on a Harley Dealership? LOL

Ride safe, Mike

I don't think you'd qualify to be a dealer - you give a $h!t about people - they'd never let you in, it would set a completely unacceptable (to the MOCO) precident!

This is the best suggestion yet. Nobody's gonna top this one!
