We all agreed it was too big and too complicated, and would never sell. We repeated the stupid scenario and predicted the same stupid out come at the same dealer in 1975 when the new Gold WIng came out. Another sales loser for sure lol.

I never thought liquid-cooling would sell for a motocross bike - too heavy, too complicated, and too fragile.

I never thought 4-stroke motocross bikes would replace 2-stroke motocross bikes - too heavy, too complicated, under-powered, and over-priced.
