>funding defunct EV garbage with tax money again Communists need to hang.
>>27827183HELL YEAH BROTHER
>>27827235>jews strangely silent when oil subsidies and ICE bailouts happen?its almost as if americans reliance on oil is an integral part of israels survival
Who the fuck is going to buy an electric Harley?
>>27828067People who want one. Duh.
>>27828067Bo one, hence the gibs
>>27828074Building the one anyone ever wanted should cost less than this bailout money. No boomer ever asked to have their freedoms limited by battery range and wait times for charging it up on the road trips.
>>27828067EVs are gaining market share every quarter over ICE.Electric Harley's are inevitable.
>>27827235Hang the communists who subsidies oil companies and bailed out the big three. You wont, you are biased arab.
>>27828080Just don't buy one. Lamayo
>>27828067Nobody, which is why they need the gibs
>>27828080>charging you car at home, on private property, using electricity generated by american companies in america isnt freedom>being a slave to the kingdom of saud (mossad) isthe absolute state of judeonegro mutts
>>27828048>>27828086Unlike you I am white and have a car. Post car hand post id; you will never. FYI Israel hates oil because it strengthens their enemies, Israel wants EVs.
>>27828085Consumers don't want EV trash, it's just corporate sloppers who then need to get bailed out.
>>27828092Here's your "freedom", now post car hand id.
>>27828154based Israel, fuck the camel fuckers
>>27828162>car gets free updates and fixes recalls without leaving my garageabsolutely based
The already make an electric motorcycle (in its second generation) so I don't what we are funding exactly
>>27828179>>27828200>EV shill can't post car as usual Go back >>>/n/
>>27828204Exactly. The dumb niggers shopped it around for like 6 years until it was totally obsolete against the competition, then flogged the failure off to some other company entirely, now they're begging again? What a fucking pathetic shadow of itself Harley has become.
>>27828268They still own the majority of shares
>>27828295So they couldn't even actually sell it, the dumb niggers. They should just hook a dynamo to William Harley spinning in his grave to power their future vehicles.

>>27828378So you don't have a motorcycle?
>>27828386no
>>27828390So you're larping?
>>27828400about what
>>27828406You don't have a motorcycle and you're talking about motorcycles
IDGI, does Harley make something critical to the war economy like Chrystler did with Abrams?
>>27828431Cvo street glide with knobbies
>>27828429oh that wasn’t me i’m a different guy
Im gonna make big bucks selling loud as fuck VROOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM mods in the near future.
A nearly silent motorcycle in grey or black sounds like a great way to get more cyclists killed or crippled in accidents.
>Electric motorbikesSure, sounds kinda cool for like a city bike, sop speed of like 55, 50 miles range, be good for the bugmen to commute on. They'd weigh like 400lbs but that's okay enough>Electric harleySo a 1000lb road tourer that still only has a 90 mile range, 75mph top speed and also makes no noise and makes you look like a fat old man? Who is the electric harley for?
>>27828447>fucking organ donors, they nearly took the tow mirror off my truck yesterday as i was driving to the office i hope they all die>EV motorbikes? no way, think of the riders!lol
>>27828268Don't hate the player, hate the game
>>27828440You type like a nobike
>>27828475probably because i don’t have a bike
>>27827235>Communists>supporting publicly traded private capitalistic companies
>>27828537>wasting taxpayer money on government directed ev agenda>not communism
i love /o/ for its surface-level political takes. such a refresher>noooo we need to stop trying to make widely distributed power generation, tax me and give it to the oil company!>noooooo we need to get away from domestically produced fossil fuels, tax me and give it to the nu-lectric companies!brainlets are so charming
>>27828520Are you poor?
>>27827183shame, I just got a Kawasaki lol.
>>27827183embezzle that shit
>>27828540it's not communism its fascism
>>27827183Its to keep zombie companies alive so they can compete against Tesla.
>>27827183I'm not against getting a Harley, its just that they cost more than other similar bikes such as Indian or BMW and you have to buy heap of accessories that other bikes have standard. I like the general style but don't care that much about the brand. In my opinion Harleys at not as uncool as they used to be in the early 2000's.
>>27828602They do not cost more than indian.
It's retarded they push this low demand high dollar shit and make the bikes people actually want to buy illegal for street use
>>27828545Go back to your containment board>>>/pol/
Bikefags deserve all the electric jewing in the world. I live in a nice mountain region and a couple years ago some gigantic cocksucker must have included the road through my town in some bikefag guide and since then from May to October those two-wheeled NIGGERFAGGOTS in their stinking faggot suits blast by my house every single day. I swear one day one of those subhumans will eat a steel pipe at 80 km/h and it will be morally justified.
>>27828565Being poor means owning a bike instead of a car. Faggot.
>>27828927Not in a first world country like America. :)
>>27828540You're extremely fucking retarded. Read a book nigger.

>>27829179Kill yourself faggot and drop that 'y-you're from /n/' cope. I'm not even sure you're a busrider or even worse, a wetback, so shut the fuck up. That was you last (You) you mangy muttgroid.
>>27828445fuck you i am gonna make the vroom vroom noises with my MOUTH the way GOD intended
>>27828067Nobody. If people wanted them, they'd already have started selling them without a bailout. Stellantis has almost TWO YEARS of 2023 inventory still sitting on lots for the Dodge Hornet and they're getting a bailout despite obviously failing because their entire business plan is a failure and injecting money into them is just wasting tax dollars because it doesn't fix the actual problem that their cars cost too much and offer too litle.
>>27828545Nuclear or bust, kill yourself before you consider shilling otherwise.
>>27827235The rube goldberg machine is dying.

They discontinued servicing the LiveWire my local HD dealer pulled the battery charger out of their parkinglot immediately lmao.Nobidy wanted that shit, I see HD is trying to corner the turd wurld potmetal market these days though with scooters and all sorts of gayshit.
>>27828602Indian charges more for their bikes.Especially their Street and Road Glide equivalent.
>>27828067THAT'S WHAT THE SUBSIDIES ARE FOR
>>27827183Harley boomer are NOT going to buy that shit, lol. Just stop pretending.
>>27828431Bombs? https://www.upi.com/Archives/1988/10/04/Harley-Davidson-gets-defense-contract/2432591940800/But the storry is from 1988

>>27828537Yes you retarded faggot.>pushes for communism>advocates for communism>donates to openly Marxist groups>becomes a capitalist by doing it all from a Starbucks lobby
You just know they're going to use the EV battery just for powering a giant ass speaker to make a fake engine noise. Harley is the polar opposite of finesse and class.
>>27829273>Data from 2026They literally have to make up data to prove their point
>>27831740Can confirm. Quality control is also pretty sub par. Not worth what they charge desu
>>27831735>They discontinued servicing the LiveWire my local HD dealer pulled the battery charger out of their parkinglot immediately lmao.Sounds like something you made up. Post the dealership.(wont happen btw)
>>27832150I know because I'm the one that threw that shit in the garbage for them.Nobody wants EVs other than suron style dirtbikes.
>>27832173Pay close attention, kid: we can all tell your story is fake. All you're doing is making yourself look like a cringe little bitch. I get it, you have a dogshit life and it's never gonna get better. But posting fake stories here isnt gonna change anything for you.
>>27832186Nope I work there and threw it away.NobodyAnd I mean absolutely nobody wants EV anything.They could not wait to stop supporting the LiveWire btw.
>>27827183>harley-davidson-to-receive-89m-federal-funding-for-electric-motorcyclesTime for Xi Jinping to slap a 100% tariff on American made motor-vehicles...
>>27832194Sure kid.
>>27832211Nobody in China is buying a Harley Davidson.They already tried India and they shut them out for Royal Einfeld.Thank God btw, any auto company that starts pandering to these bug people starts churning out garbage for nouveau riche third worlders with absolute shit taste.
>>27832211>tariff a thing that no one buys to begin withWow great plan, bud.
We just can’t stop winning Harley bros Literally cagie tax dollars keeping literally keeping Harley afloat. God bless America. HYB
>>27831872Why do you think the space shuttle was so unreliable? It had an Evo motorBut it was probably some other part of American Machine and Foundry
>>27828545Nuclear is literally the only option, and even then you still require oil as a lubricant for most of everything. Oil is the blood of modern civilization. It isn't just a "evil rich people making money" thing.
>>27832240You're stupid.
>>27832235>promote high tariffs>force companies like Suzuki and Yamaha to manufacture in the US>absolutely 100% murder HarleyI want this.
>>27832243Am I stupid, or do you just disagree?
>>27828200>car gets free updates and fixes recallsYou know a car shouldn't need constant software updates to function, right?
>>2783224550% of the bikes on the road in NA are Harley’s dude. If they were affordable overseas they would be more popular there too.For any reason American rider, all roads leave to Harley Davidson sooner or later, unless you’re actually gay. I paid $4000 for my dyna and it will last as long as I want it too. There will never be a time I cannot get parts for it. I didn’t start life out on here as a Harley fan. I tried them all, and then I tried their competitors. Harleys made a few duds over the years but if you do your research you’ll have a bike you’ll never want to replace, and you won’t have to jump through mental gymnastics to justify it.
k a w a s a k i
>>27827183Congratulations to Harley Davidson for inventing the scooter. Definitely worth the 89 million, right?
>>27832275Harleys are dogshit bikes from a company that only exists because foreign companies were fucked over and the company gets kickbacks from the government.
>>27832245>>force companies like Suzuki and Yamaha to manufacture in the USNot when you see the build quality
>>27832286Let’s see the bike We’ll wait
>>27832245>force companies like Suzuki and Yamaha to manufacture in the USSorry, if it's not made in Japan, I don't want it

>>27828074So, literally no one? Ok, got it.
>me reaching 60 mph for the first time on my bike
>>27828080They'll just get the Bud Light tranny to be their spokesperson HD EV promoter and they'll smugly and proudly say, fuck you, to their primary client base of the last 100 years

>>27832421Can I see it?
You guys are in an outlaw MC right?
>>27827183Can't wait to get my Del-mar CVO model.40 miles of range, full bagger. Almost enough to take it to the bar downtown and back.
>>27827183Ever seen a modern H-D? The fucking things are damn near all electric as it is.
>>27832300 (dubs)Know a gang of dudes who started on DRZ’s and ended up on Harley’s. Especially if you’re in the Midwest. Yeah you’ll be on one sooner or later. That or you give up riding motorcycle to ride cock. Go ahead and screenshot that cause it’s coming, boss Got a boat. HYB
>>27832545Is this the gang of dudes you were hanging out with?https://files.catbox.moe/95vauq.png
>>27832443Yeah and you better remember it's about RESPECT! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crRc6ivZcqo
>>27827183Harley deserves to die more than any domestic manufacturer. Yes this also includes AMC and Tucker
>>27832583No that’s your thing faggot
What are some good saddlebags for a Strom? Ideally I'd like to camp with it.
>>27832676Something cheap and improvisedGot some free motorcycle parts today just for the dyna. Bags, passenger legs with brackets, highway pegs, extra shocks I won’t use and all the required hardware. Exciting. All needs fixing up but that’s what we do bros
>>27828085>Electric Harley's are inevitable. Electric hogs are literally retarded. The angry farting noise is a sine qua non component of hog ownership experience. Anybody wanting an e-motorcycle can already buy one from another brand. As anon here said: >>27828157 it's just a corpo bailout, greenwashed as "environmentally-friendly action".
>>27832641>muh truck>muh guns>muh heckin doggo!the male equivalent of food, gym and travel roasties on tinder
>>27828431They got started post-WW2 making recreations of the same bikes they made for the war effort.But that was back when the country made things.

>>27832417
>>27833129Guns, trucks, dogs, and bikes are cool though.
>>27828067I'd be interested. e-bikes are great for getting around the city. Pic is a surron, harley would be cooler.
>>27827183Keep your faggy toys off the fucking roads.>https://nypost.com/2024/07/23/lifestyle/e-bike-and-e-scooter-injuries-are-soaring-in-us-heres-why/
>>27828067More importantly how are Harley going to synthesize the noise.
>>27832407I fucking hope so no more bailout money goes to HD ever after they commit suicide by throwing away current customer base in an attempt to capture an imaginary one just like Bud Light did.The sound smell and vibrations of V2 will never be replicated and those are great part of the journey where the ride is more important than destination and riding in glorified electric scooter alone after 99% of your MC didnt care to wait for you recharging the battery to be able to continue another 90 miles before recharging again and again.Maybe electric harley owners can start their own support group so you can wait even more and longer as a group when not everyone can start charging at the same time because of limited number of chargers available at any given place.
Isn't a huge point of getting a harley the sound of the engine?
>>27827183Here's the reason why they got the money.Its to pay for their DEI initiatives
>>27828085Yeah, and by 2012 the Statue of Liberty will be underwater
>>27827183The Venn diagram of >people who are into harleys And>people who want an electric motorbike Have virtually no cross over. Harley fags like being loud and annoying.
>>27835042>comparing a prediction to a measurement
>>27835604Ok Mr grumpy nobike.
>>27828067I think hardly sold less than 30 livewires total so not very many people. Shills won't rely to this cause the actual number is more like 15
>>27834257Much like budlight (and all alcohol) the traditional user base is shrinking fast with NO replacement. Hence these desperate moves. anyone still buying is stockholmed and wont quit.t.owns an inherited 1980 XL500 and a Hawk 250
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAIm sure young men are lining up to buy a bike from STACY.Do single women even think of motorcycles?
Scroll down and I found just the type you would!
Oof HarlyDavidson Ebike can ride for 145-95 miles, and then take 11 hours to charge off 110.This costs 22K$

>>27838729Yeah
>>27827183>Harley Davidson getting another bailoutSuch things are part of the "Green Initiative" wastes of money Trump spoke about in his RNC acceptance speech. He mentioned the huge wastes of money handouts under all those Green initiatives of the Build Back Better spending plan. Too much money printing increased inflation. All sorts of companies then created ways to suck up the "Green Initiative" money to pad their profits.

>>27836716 >the traditional user base is shrinking fast with NO replacement. This. Xoomers prefer the endurotourerfag aesthetic (they all watched the Long Way Round, the Long Way Down, and decided to buy a GS), millennials are risk-averse, so they don't like motorcycles, and zoomers go for cheap second hand nip sports bikes.

>>27836890Harley Davidson Bolt ###.Give it a CC equivalent for the number. Start small with one that's just big enough to not be seen as an electric bike. Then make a midgrade, something about as big as a sportster. Finally a big chonker for whatever reason. Obviously a touring bike is out of the question so don't bother. Make them simple as dirt. Electric motor, battery, brakes, throttle. Analog gauges. As little plastic as they can. You can look at it and see how it works at a glance, with nothing you don't need. It's called "Bolt" not because of the tired lightning bolt motif, but because of a philosophy that nuts & bolts are all it needs.
>>27828048we've got plenty of oil in the USA. likely more than we could use in 1000 years. oil isn't scarce in the slightest, unlike lithium for these jewish chink EV batteries. jews hate US oil because pumping it provides good living wages for white middle class workers.>basedjak.jpg you were warned you must view this warning to post againjannie genocide when?
