Is the "motorcycle recession" finally over?
 

Harley might be a litmus.

Not sure if its over, but everyone is selling bikes now, especially compared to the last few years

They do seem to be moving off of showroom floors.

I think Harley sales are starting to grow because they are finally starting to sell good looking bikes with technology newer than AMF bikes of the 1970's

When the average bike fetches MSRP, like they did back in the mid-00's, then we'll talk.........But most of the time they don't.

There is some truth here.

I know my local HD can't keep them on the floor. It's crazy.

We've been busy as hell work. People are finally spending again.

The local Harley dealer doesn't seem to move much inventory. It could be that they're not budging off of MSRP. They've got a ton of bikes on the showroom floor that seem to be collecting dust. Count me in the group that likes some of their stuff though. I've got a hard on for the Forty-Eight. Something about that bike is really hitting on the desire strings. But with the dealer asking $12K plus TTL and all the other shit, and my money going to school, I have a feeling it's going to stay right there on the floor for quite some time.

The forty eights are tight. Do a little to them and they are super hot.

I've seen very few new bikes in CA. I think they are still selling slow here...
