Harley commercial

What a waste of your time to post this. I will never get that time back.

I kind of found it funny.... Some good points on the names, anyway.

I figured we'd all realize it was a sh*t commercial to a point. Like when they compared the springer to the older HD. There is more suspension on the springer then just the springer,the 1950 was a rigid.

Harley haters never cease to lie to down grade an HD.

And the point is ?

Point is HD suffers a scourge of the yuppies. The lets do lunch bro crowd. Yuppies have been good for business but at the expense of the quality of the two wheeled brotherhood that is now seriously and unsalvagely diluted with these pukes. I wished they'd find another ego, insecurity booster platform. Many of my longtime friends have sold their bikes and say f*ck it anymore about it because of the non stop onslot of these douche bags.

You think I'm full of sh*t go to the HD rendezvous,Laconia, myrtle beach,Daytona etc....

I tried vigorously for a couple years to interact w/in the new yuppy takeover....I can't. But I did try. I'm grateful that there are a handful of old school riders I stay in touch with and we get together a couple times a year for a ride. And I have been instrumental in mentoring a few new riders in the right direction

Not bashing HD FLHTBIKER. I didn't write the article. When I first read it I saw it as yet another HD hating propaganda. I shared it only for discussion purposes.

I'm no way an HD hater, I'm HD to the bone. Have been for all my life. My father too.

I only posted for discussion purposes. Wondering if anyone else catchs Harley hating and their thoughts about it. Most HD guys I know don't dislike other bikes they just really really like HD

And the riders who supported HD thru the lean years are pushed aside except for selling the bikes on the merits of the lifestyle they created. MOCO has bottled that life style and sold a bottle with each bike they sell.

Yeah the yuppy shitsters have been good for business,parts selection and availability but the ass hats have diluted what once was a solid unspoken way of life. HD would not have gone under. They didn't go under during the lean years. And the EVO and Reagans import embargo/taxation in 1981 on bikes over 649cc saved HD.

Your news is bogus. AMF almost f*cked HD. They pumped out leaky and unreliable bikes. I know I bought one.

The hardcore were not a few,they were a silent army. In 1981 Vaughn Beals saw the eminent demise of the once heralded MOCO and formulated the buy back from AMF. Thank God. Combine that with the Reagan legislation and the EVO in 1984 and HD never looked back.

AMF was problematic from the get go,abandoning and alienating the HD side of the table.

Yes they did and yes it was.
