Honda makes motorcycles?...I though they built cars.

Kind of a strange move considering the US is their big market for cruisers and Goldy's too most likely. Fascinating actually, I wonder if it's to free up manufacturing space for auto's or because HD is handing them their lunch in the big bore cruiser market...maybe they want a tighter leash on QA that they feel they can provide in Japan better than here....Maybe they want to keep the work in house for nationalistic reasons...pressure from Korea in the small car market has them scrambling, maybe it's part of a corporate restructuring.....

Hmmmmm....an interesting turn of events indeed...

I believe HD is having troubles in their sales of the junk they produce. Their stock price is down 40% in the last year. So much for 'image' versus quality.
Care to explain how modern HD's are junk?

Sales are down industry wide and in fact any "luxury item" like boats, motorhomes and the like are suffering with the not-a- reccession.

Hey, hey HEY! Don't use the "R" word. Even the president said we aren't in a Recession. And our government never lies. Ever.
I didn't use the R word sheesh everyone knows THAT'S not true.....I said the Not-a-recession......

I think there's a pretty big difference there......

Spending trillions of dollars in Iraq is what has us so far in debt. We couldn't print enough money in a month of Sundays to buy ourselves out. Combined with the classic bait and switch sub prime home loan collapse, giving credit lines to 10 year olds and all the other rapacious credit and lending scams of the last dozen years it's no wonder we're in a recession. I'm surprised anyone would even want to be Pres. after the mess the current dildo and his cronies have left.
