Harley Information!

I read what Clayton posted on his WEB site and I could not agree with you more. Harley will get what is coming to them and that day is not too far off into the future. Once the EPA shuts them down from allowing them to sell their V-Twin the light at their factory will soon be going dim if not out forever. Harley can not compete on an even playing field with the Japanese of German bike builders. All that keeps them alive is the following that they have from us die hard that like their motorcycles. It is too bad that they do not take the time to build a product based on the price tags of their products. I purchased a 1998 Road King Classic in 1998 and Harley gave me a new 2000 Road King Classic to avoid a law suite. The 98 Harley had five upper ends along with a whole lot of other mechanical problems. The 200 has also had five upper ends, two transmissions, two ECM's. two rear swing arms, one bottom end, three stators, two starters and a whole lot of other problems. I agree with you 100% Harley's make wonderful static displays but if you ride them, they will break as mine has and as mine continues to break. I attached some history of my 2000 that I thought you might find to be interesting reading. Harley could care less about anyone's problems, all that matters to them is their bottom line and with the way they are going that will soon change as well. Oncer they can no longer offer their V-Twin with there weak link due to the poor design of their cam chain tensioners, the writing will be on the wall if all that they have to offer is their V-Rod motor, they will become like all of the other bike manufacturers that did not give their customers value for outr hard earned money.

I agree, HD is the epitome of capitalism, they capitalize off our silly devotion to the brand....not because it is a better bike, it proves itself not to be, but because in our bike world if you aint on a hog you aint shit.
