Have you seen the new Harley Davidson XR1200 ?

Question

And WTF are they doing sending it to europe first ! And people wonder why I won't own another one. Thanks but I'll stick to bikes I don't have to push.

Answer 1

why does everyone whine when it comes to business? you don't lose money, but the company sure does if they don't place the product where the market is first. HD is a business, just like all the other bike companies, they all market the bikes to the strongest sales area first. Right now, it's in europe, but the new bikes will be on the showroom floors in the U.S. around July 25th. Boo hoo, you have to wait a couple of weeks. You say you don't like them because they market them in europe first, well, then don't buy one, just stop whining.

But you should know that Honda, Yamaha and kawasaki all market europe first as well, so what are you going to do? ride a bicycle? Me, I hold stock in HD, I d**n sure want them to market them where they sell the fastest. It puts money in my pocket. And, since I bought a new HD last year, AND I got to ride all the new bikes as a road captain for HD demo days, I could care less when the new models hit the floors here. I'm happy with what I have. And I outgrew sporsters 35 years ago.

Answer 2

I once owned a HD and I had to push my HD too

learned my lesson, never again own a HD

I do the same on other products and services, not just HD, I dis-owned Suzuki bikes, owned 2 and had trouble with them!

never had any problem with with my past owned Honda and Yamaha's, never owned a Kawasaki

also JC Whitney, never will deal with them anymore, I ordered a part, sent a payment with a high shipping and handling fee, they sent me my money back WITHOUT the shipping and handling fee and told me the part I ordered is no longer available! I get nothing, they keep my money!
