Maybe H-D bought out the old Yugo plant.
Better brace yourself.

When I was looking at picking up a BMW K1200LT back in about 2002 my wife said it looked like a "Geo Metro with the doors removed." So maybe that is the type of reference. To this day I still jokingly refer to BMW K1200LT's as Geo Metro bikes! LOL...

Guy walks up to the auto parts counter and says "wiper blades for an '83 Yugo." Clerk thinks about it for a second and says "sounds like a fair trade to me."

I recall seeing a poster for a convertible Yugo named that about 1988 before the war swept them away. Yeah we had one we bought new in 88...I got 105k out of it before scrapping that blue bomber. The .9L engine still ran strong, clutch not so much.
