Harley occupies a particular niche that is rarely impacted in any
meaningful way by other brands. The exception was the revolution
caused when Honda entered the US market in the early 1960's and
increased overall motorcycle ownership exponentially. Other than that,
people who want a Harley, usually don't want anything else. It has
nothing to do with the relative merits of different brands.



You got that right. Harley sells image to mostly middle aged people who need
one.
