Harley-Davidson in focus

• ITG Research warns that Harley-Davidson (HOG -0.5%) had a tough month in March.
• The investment firm sees a fall in sales of 1.2% compared to the year-ago period which trails the consensus estimate by quite a bit.
• Global sales have become a bigger factor than ever for the company, although lining up a consistent forecast is tricky with opinions varying widely on how H-D will fare this year in Asia.
