I think that the japanese, german and british cruisers are gaining more ground, and putting pressure on harley. Eventually, Harley is going to feel a very heavy market loss. When that happens, there are two choices. Change or fall.

And yes the comparison of V-Twin to I4 was retarded. A japanese 600 will make more hp than any 600 twin. The author didnt take into account that that is a general rule. Vtwins never make more hp than a comparable I4. Torque and power curve are a different thing, and thats why different people opt for different motor types.
