I would never buy a Harley,even at half price. And now it seems they will out sauce to India,Talk about "there goes the neighborhood".
I wonder if the biker gangs will change brands ?

Naw, they'll just start wearing turbans instead of do rags.

You might note that "the Crappy One" had the best repair record, and the fewest warranty repairs of any bike that Harley has ever sold. Like the Savage, it was a bike that did what it was designed to do, without a lot of fuss, and was a fun bike to ride. After riding one, I almost bought one to go along with the Savage. *You can't have too many Thumpers.), but it was just at the time that Harley was dumping Buell, and I wasn't able to get the dealer to sell me one.
