Well I don't know where you're located but here in the Midwest, this just
isn't true. As soon as the ice melts in the spring you can't go anywhere
without seeing a Harley or three.  Sure most of 'em are real shiny but
they're on the road and looking good.  Don't you keep your Audi cleaned up
and looking sharp?   At the local H-D dealers, the only bikes there are used.
 The last one I looked at was a '90 with 36k miles on it.  Yeah maybe is was
rebuilt and maybe not, but my experiences sure don't jibe with yours.

Just my 2 cents worth.
