Harley's Boardroom Fight is Heating Up, Will Come to a Head Next Week

May 14th is a rather nondescript day, ain't it? It definitely isn't May 4th—yes, I'm a Star Wars nerd—nor the party that revolves around May 5th. Yet, despite its beige outward appearance, it's set to be a barn-burner, as the contentiousness over Harley-Davidson's board is set to come to a…

Here's the Electric Motorcycle Harley-Davidson Should Build, and It's Not a Cruiser

I have a lot of issues with the current corporate power fight that's raging inside Harley-Davidson. From (newly) activist investors, to those same investors not being able to spell Harley-Davidson correctly in their grievances. But one thing I do tend to agree with them on is that the situation at…

Harley-Davidson Q1 Financials Are Out, and They're Not Good

"Do you want the good news first, or the bad news first?" is probably something you've asked other people before. And if you, like me, are currently looking at Harley-Davidson's Q1 2025 financial results, then you might find yourself asking whether whoever wrote this asked themselves that question, too.

Harley-Davidson Investors Want EVs Axed, Don't Have a Grasp on Industry Realities

The fight for who controls Harley-Davidson continues, as H Partners Management—the investment firm that had a seat on the brand's board of directors until their man resigned in protest because he wasn't allowed to pick the company's new CEO—has found another investor to join its campaign.

Harley Board Nominates Board Member to Replace Dude Who Resigned in Protest

The Harley-Davidson world has been in the spotlight in recent weeks, and not because it launched a wild 150 horsepower bagger. Rather, it's been in the spotlight due to its CEO Jochen Zeitz announcing his retirement, and the power play that his retirement kicked off with a former member of…

Is India About To Lift Its Tariff On Large Displacement Bikes Like Harleys?

As you might already be aware, if we're talking about countries where the most new motorcycles are sold each year, then India frequently tops the charts. How many bikes are we talking about? In FY 2024, motorcycle buyers in India snapped up 18 million units (that's 'million' with an 'm').

Because He Couldn't Pick Harley-Davidson's New CEO, Board Member Resigns

I've been watching Harley-Davidson stories closely ever since the brand's CEO, Jochen Zeitz, announced his retirement earlier this week.

Harley-Davidson's CEO Is Out, Company Is Looking for Replacement

A company with as much legacy as Harley-Davidson has to be a cool place to work. You've got over 100 years of lineage, culture, style, and substance propelling you forward in a way that few other companies do. And there's a reason why so many of the Motor Co's employees…

Harley-Davidson, New Tariff Concerns, and the Past as Prologue

Uncertainty is the enemy of being able to plan, well, anything. Uncertainty leads to unease, anxiety, and a whole bunch of unpleasant feelings that can impact anyone's ability to make good, clearheaded decisions. I probably don't need to tell you that; these are things that you probably already know, and…

Harley-Davidson's Accessories Catalog Weighs 3 Pounds and Is 800 Pages Long

I've always known that Harley-Davidson has a back catalog of parts to rival everyone and everything on the planet, it's why no two Harleys are alike. Even amongst the most like-minded Harley owners, subtle differences and accessory additions abound. That allows owners to truly have a one-of-a-kind motorcycling experience, which…

Harley Just Dropped the Brand's Cheapest Offering's Price, But That Isn't the Issue

There's no denying that inflation has caused the powersports market to contract.

Harley-Davidson Will Now Sell You a $110,000 Motorcycle

It's fitting that Harley-Davidson held a secret screening of its 2025 CVO Road Glide RR—that's Race Replica, for you playing at home—in Austin, Texas. I was ostensibly in town to see what the new Softails were all about. But Circuit of the Americas is just down the street, and at…

It's Real Weird to Ride a Motorcycle Fitted With Outriggers

I think Harley-Davidson's engineer, as well as three of its press people, told me no less than eight times "Whatever you do, don't put your feet down." Before the demonstration occurred, while the engineer was demonstrating the obstacle course, with each successive rider hopping onto the new Softail, and twice…
