HD needs to sell to a different generation of customers. The ones I see now are older men 60/70 riding that yellow line hanging their head over into my lane. We have several deaths per year in western NC mountains just run head on to oncoming traffic. The rice burner riders are in their own lane. I just don’t know why HD drivers think they own both lanes. I often wonder if these guys are the same guys I used to see in the 70’s when I rode my Yamaha. I was in my 20’s and most of them were also. I don’t see how they have lasted so long.

Good point. The first lawnmower I bought was to earn money towards one of the motorcycles sitting in the same showroom. A few years late, a drivers license and a real job at the gas station, I was on the bike.
I can remember when I was 14-15, two friends & I walked into Kelly Motors the dealer and the midwest distributer for Triumph, Norton, Moto Guzzi & Ducati in Dayton, Ohio. A salesman, Hell maybe JR Kelly himself took us over to look at 3-4 bikes parked together and asked us what we thought of them. Let me tell you, that made threee teenagers feel like something special.
At that time he was seriously considering taking on a Honda franchise. Yep, we all three told him they were too damn ugly for us. Well he did not take on Honda but about 5 years later Honda of Dayton did.
