There was just an article on Harley/Buell (example in the article was Ray Price) dealerships becoming Triumph dealerships. Every last sale at one of these Harley dealerships is one that Could have been a Buell. Yes... Harley doesn't make a dime on these Triumph sales. So we agree- Harley gets nothing for a Triumph sale. $140 million spent to close a brand that will cost Harley sales to another manufacturer. At a Harley Boutique store.
Looks like several Harley dealerships that had Buell too have migrated to Triumph. Wonder how much profit HD takes in from each Triumph sold, compared to each Buell...
Getting a bike prepped for spring isn't too challenging, and with a stand you can get the wheel off and take it to be balanced. Looking at $25.00. That would mean $275 worth of PBR's left for you.
Happy Birthday! I'm actually going to be out that way, picking my daughter up from a movie date. Might have to show up a bit early and bum a chicken wing.... Of course, buy a round too.
When the weather is right, there might be time to head out to some good roads beyond Mt. Vernon, and chase it down with some BW's. And I'll take the baffles out- then the twin is really heard.
That's my neck of the woods, alright. I don't speed though. That is both dangerous and illegal. And I do have the baffles in, so it can't be that bad...
