Harley really made some bone-headed decisions.  They got 3 Euros to sell back MV Agusta.  So they lost $110 million dollars (or Euros?  yikes!).

Not to mention that Cannondale was interested in taking Buell off their hands for LESS than what Harley paid to officially scrape Buell off their chrome laden rear ends.

The Buell Blast (a great bike, btw) reacquainted me to thumpers in 2000.  Ten years later I'm ready to jump in again.
