Harley has many Thumbs

I have given up and turned my case over to a lawyer. They want to hold all the cards, and for a long period they did.

But those days are ending. Money is tight. You have to feed your family, make sure they have health coverage. A roof over their heads. A car to bring the kids to soccer or go buy groceries. Dental care. Heat in the winter. Taxes. And way down at the bottom of the list is a motorcycle.

So now your living in your house, which could be worth less than what you owe. And if you still have a job, you drive to work in the car that's worth less than what you owe. And you bring home your paycheck which may go down, but won't go up for close to a decade.

At work you're asked to build their product with pride. But why bother? Your friends and coworkers continue to get screwed. So why would you want to help get executives higher salaries and bonuses? Oops! A screw just dropped into the crankcase of the engine your building. No matter. It'll just bounce around in there chewing off little bits of metal until your oil looks like sludge. But that's what oil filters are for. Confused? Oil is circulated around your engine and through a filter to pick up damaging particles. What happens when the filter gets clogged? The solution is easy. Oil filters have bypass valves. If the oil can't get through the filter it goes around it. But I digress. The point is, of all the things you can squeeze out of your budget, a motorcycle is one item that is not required to survive.

But there is still a lot of people who can still afford to buy bikes. But do you want to buy one from a company that just screwed the guy who built it. With many brands available, there are other choices than HD. From companies that honor their warranties. Many are American made. Do yourself a favor, don't risk your hard earned money on a second rate product.

DON'T BUY HARLEY!!!
