Subliminal marketing of getting people interested in a cool machine and going out on their own and googling it would have been much better, leave people interested in the end instead of shoving the product into viewers eyes. Many other manufacturers did the opposite with success. I guess it’s a Harley thing. ---

The last thing Harley is concerned about is marketing. They sell bikes either way without issue. ---

I’d also like to say that the ad sucked. I’d ride a harley, I’ll ride anything with two wheels. It doesn’t mean the ad wasn’t gay. ---

Haha I was just gonna say there are ducatis and other super sports that are in the 20+ k price range, I don’t honestly care for Harley’s but you just can’t replicate that sound that a Harley makes and the image it represents I’ve had other cruisers and as much as you mod them they will never look or sound as good as a Harley ---

Personally, I like the HD 48 and I would do similar mods like this guy. May be after I get a trad, I will add one to my garage…:rofl [ame][http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_e-j9srLsK0[/ame]](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_e-j9srLsK0%5B/ame%5D) ---
