"Consumer Reports says Harley-Davidson and BMW motorcycles are less reliable"
Harley-Davidson and BMW motorcycles are less reliable than Japanese competitors, according to the first-ever motorcycle reliability survey from Consumer Reports magazine.
About one in four owners of Harleys reported experiencing a major problem in the previous four years, Consumer Reports says in its report that will be published March 28.
BMW motorcycles were less reliable than Harley-Davidsons, with about one in three owners reporting problems in the previous four years. Only about one in ten Yamaha owners experienced issues during that time, followed closely Kawasaki and Honda.
"Reliability is one of many factors consumers might consider when purchasing a motorcycle. However, other factors like sculpted lines and rumbling engines also strike the right note among motorcyclists," said Rik Paul, Auto Editor, Consumer Reports.
