If that happened to me 35 years ago, the Harley guy would have been dead for 35 years.

I guess I could have run him over on the way out of the parking lot but that would seem a bit harsh.

Ohhhhh my bad I thought we were talking about HD fashion, as you know that is quite popular [bashing] topic as well.

You mean the 30% of their income that comes from chinese made brand apparel? No there is nothing wrong with that, the Blue Jays do it.

@Trials don’t you have a MV Agusta? A company that is pretty consistent in facing money issues and/or in bankruptcy fairly often. The same company Harley bought and paid for then when after realizing the brand was almost worthless paid the family to take it back.
Probably don’t need to worry about Harley stock price or their business model.
Admittedly if you want to knock Harley that was one of their bigger mistakes. Start there and don’t worry about the dude from 35 years ago.

who doesn't get wood seeing this?
J_F I went to Policaro Harley tonight for their bike night...and stumbled on this. Kind of cool. Made in Italy as well so I learned something new.
I’m starting to sound like a Harley fanboy now. Should take my gf’s R3 out for a bit and balance things out a little.

That's exactly like the one I rode! it near put me on my ass.
but really
anyone that claims this doesn't stir them a bit
needs to start being more honest with themselves
not ready yet, but there will be a day........
Would love one, not as my only bike though, I want it as part of my stable, that I’m far from having. Carry on.

The AMF years at Harley when they bought into Aeromacchi (sp?) the Italian 2 stoke bike company was goofy marketing with a capital G . The bikes were a bit sketchy in reliablity, parts , well Italy..., and nobody really wanted much to do with them. The Japanese were getting well organized with dirt bikes, even odd balls like Hodaka were better machines.
I'd say Harley only bought MV Agusta for the already engineereed science on liquid cooling , which HD needed to stay legal and current with emmisions and the millions they "lost" when they handed it back to the Castiglioni family woukld have been burnt on engineering themselves, with possibly lesser results. Castiglioni family have bought and sold MV 4 times? Why? well Italy...
