So I wonder how many Harleys will be sold 10-20 years from now when the average boomer is what; 60+ years old? That will be interesting to watch.

I 50 now, and my last bike was a ZX-11. My current ride a BMW R1100S, and would never fall for a 'no tech' bike like the big Harleys; Buell, well maybe. But doing something just because your friends think it cool; what a waste of time.

Yea, I know. Hope I make it that long. But I'm 50 now and tell my friends to shoot me if they ever see me on a bike with streamers hanging from the bar ends.

I agree; and would like to see HD move away from model 'T' technology and the V-Rod is a good start. Give us a bike that will not fall apart trying to keep up with any number of good sport touring rigs available now from Japan or Europe. Key words being 'lighter weight' 'handling' 'power' 'reliability' 'affordability' Until then, I refuse to buy HD.
