Is it any wonder? Their demographic is akin to Fox News': aging, overweight white guy Boomers who can't replace themselves fast enough so Harley is appealing to the younger, in-shape, well-read-types :afro: .

Enter the new demographic:

Harley-Davidson Signals Climate Change Is Mainstream*|*Carol Pierson Holding

But Harley's core customers are largely boomers so its average customer's age -- and as recently as 2010 its market share too -- were declining.

The company needed to appeal to younger generations. It's doing so with smaller, cheaper bikes and an electric motorcycle called the LiveWire.

Needless to say, electric motors can go from 0 RPM to 15K in the blink of an eye :eek: 0-60 MPH < 4 secs & 74 HP :cool:

that whole episode was about Harley owners "compensating" ;) Makes sense given people like [MENTION=30094]Warrior102[/MENTION]
 
south park...it's a prefrontal through a screen. You can actually FEEL yourself get dumber as you watch. It is the OPPOSITE of humor.
 
Idiots
Seriously
I wouldnt be caught dead on a fucking electric motorcycle, in a solar powered home or in a prius - a fucking kotex on four wheels

Full torque at 0 RPM. Try that with an ICE.

Only to k00ks is 20% mainstream!!!:2up::eusa_dance::eusa_dance::eusa_dance::eusa_dance::eusa_dance::eusa_dance::eusa_dance::rofl:


s0n.....you pwned yourself again due to being naïve as a mofu!!!:D



Only 20% Think Debate About Global Warming Is Over - Rasmussen Reports?



NASCAR went green too.....built a few solar stations at some of the tracks. Smart marketing strategy......draws more paying customers. They wont be running electric cars........ever. Sunoco racing fuels for those 885hp beasts.



Harley is smart........draw a few of the naïve dummies who will fall for the stunt. Well over 95% of Harley riders wouldnt be caught dead riding a gay electric motorcycle.

I know right? Carbon-fluffers are so closed-minded :(

Don't need it on a motorcycle. Besides: the other end of the tach is usually more fun. :D

Seriously
I wouldnt be caught dead on a fucking electric motorcycle, in a solar powered home or in a prius - a fucking kotex on four wheels

For Goddamned sure you would never be caught writing an intelligent post.

Before this decade is done, EV's, cars, trucks, motorcycles, will be wiping up the road with ICE's. I suspect that the batteries that come out of Musk's new factory will be more powerful than what is on the market today, and that will just be the beginning of the increase in storage capacity. Already the Tesla has changed the equation on acceleration, style, and quality in EV's.

Thats why they're not concerned w/ you throw-backs anymore wahrrior102. your demographic is shrinking and, as every school child knows, capitalism & profits are about expanding one's consumer base.

Only if the cost is competitive Ray!!! You're talking a seismic change......few projections are pointing in that direction.
