Thanks for the post Larry. Kind of gets you thinking.

 

Yes Harley sales may be down but their competition like Indian is up, Victory is up, Honda touring bikes are doing pretty well. and Kawasaki is moving some big boys. So I think the touring segment is doing pretty well. It seems the one pulling the plug on touring is Yamaha. I wonder if they know something nobody else does?

 

I like the Ural. In fact I was going to buy one. But it turned out to be too cramped for me.
