i'm sure what i'm about to say will stir up some stuff,but i kinda like doing that so here goes.Harley is a victim of their own success.i've been saying this for some time,but they were never meant to sell as many motorcycles as they did during their peak sales years.they simply road the RUB/wannabe wave that ensued after The American Chopper craze.i remember that up until 8 years ago you used to be put on a waiting list to be able to buy a new harley.now that all the people who like playing biker on the weekends have been laid off Craigslist is flooded with 1 or 2 year old bikes that are practically brand new going for cheap,so basically Harley sold A LOT of bikes to people who aren't serious about motorcycling and inadvertantly flooded the used market to the point that they can't sell new ones,and it's sad that to compensate they hack Buell instead of scaling back on the 10 different softail models,or 10 differnt dyna models,or 10 different touring models
