  • They’ve always been good at shooting themselves in the dick, and this just shows that they are just as cowardly as the “men” they sell masculinity reinforcement devices to. Not every Harley rider is one of those types, but when you only cater to a shrinking, bitter in-group, you eventually stop bringing in people who aren’t part of that group.

    Killing the Nova right before the import revolution, then crying to Reagan to get their tariff passed, canning Buell, CEO who didn’t ride, overpriced and underbuilt bikes, axing affordable modern models that appeal to new riders, failing to follow through with the Livewire, etc…

    The only thing they’ve really done right lately is the Pan-America actually having real ADV touring chops, but it’s still too much money. It used to be that if you failed to innovate, you went out of business, but now they are letting themselves be bullied into a corner with no way out. Nevermind the fact that capitulating to the death cult that is the Conservative party just emboldens them to further attack other businesses, and eventually directly attack the groups that they are targeting.

    The youngest bike I own is 40 years old (all of my bikes are Honda’s) and I’ve put nearly 30K miles on it in 5 years. The stereotypical Harley rider makes me embarrassed to call myself a rider sometimes.

    I’m just waiting for better VR support (formerly WMR, now Quest 3), and my system (Thinkpad T15G) is Intel/Nvidia, occasionally with an Nvidia eGPU, and I’ve heard good support for that just isn’t ready yet. Linux would be great if I had a budget to build something entirely optimized for Linux, but right now it’s just not right for my system and budget.

    I plan on trying it out again soon, but I just don’t have time for a new learning curve right now, even if I’m fairly tech savvy.
