What’s wrong with this picture? • Prospect walks into a HD dealership wearing leather jacket, driving a suburban and jeans. Gets no help as she walks over to the rider gloves display. Spends 17 minutes with no help. Gets a phone call and then sits on a motorcycle for 45 minutes with no attention. Purchases the short gloves and leaves to go to a new rider course only to find out she should have purchased the cuffed garment. The gloves then fray within 3 days of use.
Hard Core Harley Rider • “Harley can no longer rest on the fact that people will just buy a Harley. The old attitude that, if you don’t buy it’s your loss is over. They have to start servicing customers in a whole different way considering you can purchase so many other bikes today with more value for less. And I’m a Harley rider!”
