NO STAY AWAY!!! 88 inchers are BOMBS.

Unless it has had the revised chain tensioner, stay far, far away. I would also go one further and suggest having the S&S bearings for the cams to eliminate side thrust too.

103 inchers all the problems were solved with 103s.

What about a nice British bike, as at least we might be able to cut some kind of trade deal with Trump.

Better go have a look at an HD forum...

Here here are some samples of what people who buy and own HD have to say about this...
I did a quick google search and the only place those statements turn up is in your post right here. Could you perhaps link to them for me?

Companies can do what they want but its sad that a company has no loyalty to its homeland, when you consider what a harley costs you would think they can absorb a tariff increase.

nah . I like it. So I will get it.

This is all about consumer mentality. No amount of shaming will change my mind about it.

My prediction is that the Harley lovers will always be harley lovers. (true lovers that is)

Where Harley makes the bikes mean NOTHING to me. Plus, not sure why Harley cannot make their bikes overseas for profits. Trump made his ties in China before and it is entirely understandable too. Trade policies will help some and hurt some, it is just common sense stuff. Not sure why this is such a big deal.

Isn't it illegal for a president to personally threaten a private company with financial ruin and higher taxes as some kind of punishment for running their company the way they see fit?

Does it fall under abuse of power? I cannot believe it is ok for a US president to do that in this country.
