Sadly i think Harley has run its course with me if this is the next step from them. The designs and engineering over the last maybe 5yrs have been very ordinary indeed.
I'm with you on this one. Still not sure about the M8 and these new softails so hanging on to my TC96 Dyna. Actually have been toying with the idea of getting a carby Evo road king but not sure the aftermarket for that will be around much longer...
Gentlemen. We’re not dead yet. I ride 2 to 4 times a week. The mostly organised groups of other riders I see on the road, outside pubs and cafes, are Harley enthusiasts. Young old middle aged and or female. More than any other brand of bike! Well adventure tourers do get a look in but only in groups of 2 to 3.
Agree steelo. I would see a hundred or more Harleys on the road when I'm out on any day on the weekend, dozens more parked outside most pubs. Yes, Adventure/Tourers also a plenty (I'm after one of these as well), but don't know how anyone can say HD is taking its last breath!
I get your point Steelo, good you get out so often.
Steelo is living the retirement dream Ratrob, gets out all the time. If your looking for a ride ending in partaking in a delicious iced/cream bun, Steelo is your man. He is also very knowledgeable regards Botany. Attends Canberra Floriade religiously ......
Yeah I’ve met up with Steelo, great guy, he invited me out for a ride this week but I couldn’t make it. Damn.
Yeah HH, I’d have the current Chief Vintage if they offered forward controls, well engineered, gear driven cams, lots of realestate and handling. Curse my long legs.
