Don't get your panties in a bunch. It was a general reply to this thread. there are going to be exceptions. One of which you apparently are. I must work on my ATS acumen.

By the way, outstanding avatar.

When you buy a H & D you'd better buy you a good service plan or a good set of mechanics tools & the knowledge. They are and have always been a more "needy" bike than others. It may be their sales are falling cause of the price.....when people can't find jobs, folks don't buy motorcycles.....Make a bike that 3/4 of the American populace can afford and in now time we'll look like Singapore, or Hong Kong......scooter gangs everywhere.

LOL

That's an OLD joke -

"Do you own a Harley?"

"No, I can't afford the toolkit."

Just to point out...

BMW reports record growth in motorcycle sales, so Harley's woes are not necessarily market driven. They just aren't offering the bikes that are experiencing growth.
