Do you love the bikes and most everything that goes along with them but feel less emotionally attached to "the Motor Company"?

I've worked for them in the past and watched them kick long time and loyal customers to the side over and over again. Pan Heads got thrown aside for Shovels. Shovels got thrown aside for EVO's. EVO's are getting thrown aside for Twinkies.

It's not just the bikes, but service, parts, information, support or just simple inclusion are not there for those of us who have stood beside them since before the last motor change. Are we so blind that we can't see Willie G. could care less about us? At their annual dealer meetings they would pound into our heads that we as dealers should care less about leaving money in our customers pockets. Why? Because they will go back to work tomorrow and make more and there is another one with full pockets walking through the door right now. I'm not kidding, that was actually said in front of a room of 5,000+ people in New Orleans at the 2000 dealer meeting.

I've only bought one new HD (8 years ago) and may never do it again. Nor will I celebrate their "anniversary" every 5 years.
