Looks like the US market is soft

Wonder if the sumping problems along with oil migration to the primary is hurting sales?

Go on the Harley forums.......Quite a few are holding off trading up till the problem is solved......I was at a Honda dealer recently......And they know all about Harleys Problems ..So the Word to the Wise is out....

If after all the problems i had dealing with Harley even if i was ever dumb enough to even consider ever owning one again.....They totally blew it when they tried to put it to President Trump...With the Tariff B/S....

There are also stories about the prices of used HD's being at an all time low, with many buyers opting for used, also contributing to lower new vehicle sales.

Also, Indian has seen an uptick in sales, with lots of HD trade ins.

Some times I think we have to consider the source

There is and always will be a lot of bashing on Forums by folks that really don't know the product or history very well

That said there is definitely a down turn for HD now, and the future is getting dimmer IMO

I just traded my Tri Glide for an Indian Chieftain Dark Horse. I’m wondering why I didn’t trade or switch brands years ago. Indian’s have better quality and looks than Harley (to me anyway).
