I had to pick my words when saying they do it better than anyone else, as I didn’t want to say they are doing it great. While their cycle line is lacking, their band management is great, probably the best in the US and among the best in the world. Also, the initial quality/fit and finish on their bikes is very good. I don’t know about the longterm reliability of the new Milwaukee 8 though, but it seems to be doing very well so far.
Politics aside, who didn’t take or advocate for bailout loans 14 years ago? Even Ford was an advocate for others and quietly took some themselves. We won’t get into how GM manipulated their corporate structure and bankruptcy laws. Or the sale of Chrysler to Cerberus and then to Fiat.
Anyway, I’m having a difficult time right now not buying a new R1200GS. I had one of the new water cooled ones in 2013 and it was the best riding bike I’ve owned to this point.
