    Hi all
    With this 2018 model changes, I had some weirdest thoughts in my head.
    So I want to throw a hypothetical situation here,,

    What would you do and how would you make the situation work to your advantage if you knew certain model was being discontinued?

    A good example would be a Nightrod. and discontinuation of Dyna family.
    Would you buy one? Would you sell yours? What & where would you invest your money on? Parts and accessories? social groups? business ideas?

    I agree with Pauly.... WTF??
    Also everyone found out on the 23rd of August that harley were stopping making certain bikes.... so people like myself went out and bought 1 of the last 1s. 

    The only way you could work it to your advantage is buy 1 still in the box and dont take it out and pray its worth something in 30 years. I personally wouldn't spend 30k to leave it in a box.

    I have seen people buy a Desmosedici RR , only 1500 made worldwide ,and now trying to sell them , they are going to rip thousands up.

    Its not insider trading... only a fool would 'invest' money on something so silly as a lineup change.

    I bought my Low Rider S with a hunch it would be obsolete the following year.

    As an investment, you are not going to see a return on it for 15-20 years.

    Enjoy the now, ride the bike like it was meant to be ridden.

    I've never met someone who has made millions selling old Harleys.

    Looks like a tarted up Breakout, obstensively for touring purposes. This country loves Breakouts. Where is the ‘sport’ part with that rake?

    apparently throwing upside down forks on something makes it a sportsbike.

    Like the CVO Pro Street Breakout they sold about 3 of lol.

    Don't need dual disks bro, just USD forks like a Ducati.

    And it's now official. Sportglide announced. 
    Basically a softail lowrider with usd forks. Detachable fairing and forward mids 

    Wheels look like they are off a Honda Civic.

    Really bloody strange direction Harley are heading lately methinks?
    A bit like the latest transgender fad...
    It's like they can't decide whether to be tough, raw & masculine, or... Girly, so they're settling for half-n-half?
    Either stick with the long proven recipe OR go all out sportsbike
