Quote: Really? And have ya looked at Sportsters? In HD's home market, a 900CC Sportster is considerably cheaper than a BA.
Ok, so it is the Sporters that are representative of HD now?
If by "representative" you mean "ubiquitious," then yes.
No, by representative I mean that when one thinks of a HD, it's NOT the Sportster that comes to mind. Also, if you want to throw words like "ubiquitous" at me, you might want to learn how to spell them first ... or stick to simpler words.

I believe you're misquoting me (again). What I really said (to paraphrase) was that the 'Bird won't be a competitive product ... blah blah blah ... I stand by all that.
No misquote (you wish) ... what you "really" said was "Let's face it, even before the credit world tanked, this bike had little draw except to perhaps a limited number of existing Triumph owners."
That's and EXACT quote.
So, the T'Bird had "little draw" to whom? To the public that HASN'T EVEN SEEN it yet? Nice try!
