They're selling Genuine WHERE?!?!

Post by Swordsman »

Hey guys! Funny thing I noticed while looking for a local Genuine dealer: the closest one to me is a big Harley-Davidson dealership! How weird is that? I mean, H-D salespeople (in general) have a rep for trash talking other brands because they're not "real bikes." Wonder how that's working out for their scooter sales?

I admit, as much as I'd like to go take a Blur 220i for a test ride, scooter shopping among a bunch of mullet-sporting, leather-clad "tough guys" seems like an uncomfortable prospect. :?

I did a demo drive of the Madass 125 at a Harley Dealership. It was their "entry level" motorcycle. No Genuine there, though. It was a hell of a facility and worked out to a nice retail experience. Lots of friendly staff and plenty of people waiting for the doors to open. I wasn't used to that!

Not all Harley riders are greasy, but many of them are :wink:

If Harley is willing to sell the Madass why the hell don't they bring back the topper?

Ditto here.

You can always count on a wave from a Harley rider, at least around here. And I get a kick out them calling their bikes "scooters".
