HD must be making money since 99% of the time I only see new models on the road.
That said, on the weekend I met up with a farmer who just had his '77 HD Superglide engine/gearbox rebuilt for $15K Cdn. A very rough 'n' tumble and organically original sounding chain-driven museum beauty to be appreciated. He could of had the $15K used as a downpayment on a new HD, but instead chose to maintain his current ride and save the planet. It is alotta money for just the lump. I admire the passion.
As far as I am concerned, he can join in the pack of '70s Japanese bike owners any day for a group ride.
