i went with my cousin to the local harley dealership yesterday so he could get oil for his bike.i started talking to one of the sales guys and this "genius" is convinced that in the spring Harley's will start selling like hot cakes again now that the economy has "recovered".i don't know about you guys but here in Ohio the unemployment rate is over 10%.and just because the stock market has recovered it hasn't stopped companies from laying people off(like Harley is about to do)or created jobs to put people back to work.it's sad but i think it will be a long time,possibly up to 5 years to put everybody back to work.and people have sacrificed so much that when they do get back on their feet they are going to have a long way to go after that to be able to have discretionary cash to spend on things like motorcycles.
