"Harley", but still says something about the whole bike business.
Everything about Harley argues for stewarding that last batch of baby boomers on their final rides before they head off to that Great Biker Bar in the Sky, while simultaneously getting a smaller gang of Gen Xers and millennials onto "real" motorcycles so that Harley's decline is extremely gradual.
I suppose "real" is always evolving.
Look, I know it's kind of sad. But sometimes you have to accept that you're in the final chapter.
Yep. Old and in the way.
