People say Harley’s are priced too high
#221
Here is why the price is so high in my opinion. I have a few friends that work union. One female in particular just started at $15.67 per hour. The other day, on a Sunday, her and another female on a different line were chatting that their lines have been down for 3 hours and they are sitting around making double time. Another lady I know, been there 9 years, would make triple time on holidays, her base pay was $22 per hour. So she was making $66 per hour, and bitching the whole time about the inefficiency of the team leaders and so forth. Why the F do we need to pay someone triple time to stand around and bitch, and the same ones will bitch because the new jeep they want is $50K. Stupid if you ask me.

During my career in the car business, I was used car mgr at a huge Honda dealership /BMW store for 15 yrs and was always amassed at the resale of both brands..and yes BMW has higher maintenance and ownership cost compared to Honda,but mostly BMW owners have deeper pockets to handle it.....

its not totally true that millennials don't drive Harleys. My parents never road motorcycles, friends never road motorcycles so I had zero influence from people. I drove multiple motorcycles and I walked away on a Harley for a first motorcycle based of feel and personal preference, I got the "soul" everyone speaks of in a Harley . I don't think its fair to batch us all as non driving phone lovers because of our age, its no different than calling all Harley owners a**holes cause of the one guy you met on time lol
I know, I know its not a m8 lol

Everything runs in cycles..cars,bikes,cloths,houses,stores,etc..Harle y will survive even with those high prices and Indians will never be a threat, look at the Victory longevity ..
Harley even made it out of the AMF days when times were bleak
All the big bikes manufacturers 30 some years ago were kicking the snot out of Harley,.Reagon slapped big tariffs on foreign bikes and Harley has never looked back

$15.67 is a pretty good starting wage for uneducated unskilled labor
what does that have to do with a 20 year qualifying retirement pension?
