Comments by "Comm0ut" (@Comm0ut) on "Harley Davidson PANICS Sends EMERGENCY Email To Outraged Employees! Sturgis Is A Disaster!" video.
HD doing this should be no surprise. Design quality tanked when the Twin Cam was introduced because it was designed for semi-automated assembly (first the timing chain guide shoe issue which could not have happened with proven HD gear drives as used since 1936, then the Cruise Drive transmission problems due to design defects whose repair is addressed in multiple videos). HD got away with non-premium quality because loyal buyers know to upgrade them with aftermarket parts. Older bikers remember when if you rode into some dealers on a chopper you were refused service. Willie G was a great positive influence in his time but he is long retired. HEAVY factory propaganda boosted sales and very few enthusiasts take serious interest in the real history other than old mechanics. With all the classics gone the motorcycling world would be better off without HD. The aftermarket has everyone covered for part and then some.
