I think of the Harley business in terms of my memories of it from the 60s and 70s, when, in fact, it is much larger, more conservative and "big business" than I could have imagined.
I looked into buying a Harley Franchise - as it seemed to embody everything I longed for from my youth, and looked like a job I'd enjoy getting up in the morning for . . .
Not to happen. They have gotten too big, too corporate and highly profit driven. Not that that is a bad thing . . . it just doesn't encourage independent franchise owners . . . .
I do have the stock, (which I believe in even more now!) and am considering my first bike at 56.
Women on Harleys has become a good niche for them . . .
