I came across an ad for a new HD softtail, removable fairing and hard saddlebags, and 107 motor. The motor company is advertising it as a performance driven bike. Interesting new approach.
Honda is doing the same thing with the new Goldwing.....

Guess everyone is trying to appeal to a younger audience

Nothing new about it. Harley has been advertising performance driven lines for decades and I think it is a losing cause. They should go back to the old days of ElectraGlide. Sell standard swing arm and soft tail Hogs at lower prices then allow the customer to make custom or performance changes of their own using Harley parts.

If so, again a losing cause. Youngsters too busy in their pretend world of joy sticks and dildos.

I agree with RK.....local dealer has but one on their showroom floor....it's not a big ticket item...The Dyna models are moving much faster than the bigger touring and softail models....mainly because of the pricing I would assume...
Sales are up in the more established middle age group.....surprisingly mostly couples...
