HD out of bussiness?

Apoc · 12-02-2009, 01:20 PM

hahaha, you guys make me laugh. I used to hear people bitch about HD riders attitudes, but you guys are far worse. Just cant get over the fact that someone might have a harley because they *GASP* ENJOY IT!

No, cant be possible, right? You gotta be cramped up so bad it hurts on a bike barely big enough for a 15 year old girl, with 150hp to be cool?

The HD guys who hate sportbikes are idiots. But so are you sportbikers who hate Harleys. For some its an image, and its there choice, others just love their harleys.

It doesn't have to be the most technologicly advanced to enjoy, you guys do know that right?

You also know, that while my bike may be overpriced new, that in 10 years, when your bike is worth 1500$ cdn, i'll still be able to sell mine for enough to buy the latest, greatest sportbike, and still have cash left over?

If you care what other people ride, you need to spend more time riding, and less time judging.

Because they dropped buell?

I can see your point in one way. But if the ships sinking, and throwing off some extra weight will keep you afloat long enough to get to shore, what can you do?

Facts are facts, HD is on its way to tits up. You throw out the bathwater, not the baby. If buell was the moneymaker, im positive they'd still proudly be in HD showrooms.

Buell was actively making money. And now Harley won't sell them. And now some dealers are selling Hyosung bikes and Harley is letting it happen. And before they shut them down, no dealer was forced to carry Buell. It was optional.

They make that many piss poor decisions on top of financing a bike to anybody with a pulse and alienate a lot of people by shutting down Buell and they've pretty much made their own bed.

Harley

This I honestly did not know.

I thought they dropped buell because it was causing massive debt.

Nope, Buell was still turning profit. Small, but profit none the less. And now this korean bike thing is putting a lot of Buell guys over the top.
