What’s going on at HD is that their sales are way off, Indian’s eating their lunch.

HD made the same mistake as the Big Three US automakers did back in the 60s and 70s, viz. marketing the same stale models to a changing market. HD has been depending on baby boomers to sustain the product. Baby boomers romanticize the HD brand from their youth, watching Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper riding cool choppers. Now baby boomers are getting to the age where many are either having to ride trikes or not at all. And trikes are ridiculously expensive.

That leaves younger riders, many of whom don't have credit to rent a television.

HD is in trouble.
