Well I have a 2012 and a 2004 so I'm good. That was a close one!!!
one thought I had was to redesign the V rod . Turn it into a Sport touring bike. More up right or feet back set up with removable panniers and top case. They have the engine. Geared correctly, I think it would make a nice ST or maybe something like the Ducati Multistrada. oh yeah give me a call HD.
there you go, Maybe a smaller, sportier SG or RG. there is so much they could do with the V Rod rather than just an uncomfortable cruiser. I would definately give HD a look if they did something like that but they just don't offer anything currently that interests me.
That's the point. Read the article on the TXR Facebook page. More and more younger people aren't buying into the old Harley culture . Harley priced them selves out of the reach of some of their loyal base customers. More and more people are like us. Don't care what you ride , just ride. Indian and Victory have made inroads into the big nagger market and others , like me, just aren't interested in the air cooled VTwin when there are better options and MC for other types of riding. HD appears to be in some trouble because they are hanging on to their culture. Anytime soon, doubt it .One thing we know is that the world changes. Gumbo, won't trade the wing on anything HD currently has to offer. Don't see them doing anything exciting anytime soon .
