I am trying to envision a HD future where they made a really reliable, durable, ultra-cool looking, and efficient gas-powered "scooter" for the masses that was a hit with most everyone and was close to affordable. I am talkin' a "cult"-followin' phenom not unlike the 60's Honda Cub that took 'merica by storm. I believe HD has the resources to do this. But do they have the courage? My current perception is HD does not have the courage.
It would possibly mean relegating their current portfolio line-up to the "Legacy" (or does "Legendary" sound better?) class models. Would current HD owners want to be associated with intelligent and possibly "smart" new generation HD products? Or would such new product offerings split the company customer alliance? Would that be a bad thing? The company, in theory, would still make money, support the legacy line and finally open the door to 21st century brave new innovation.
