Harley-Davidson's reputation as an 'old, white-guy brand' may be its downfall - a podcast by Motorcycle Madhouse
from 2023-04-22T13:31:37
It’s been nearly 50 years since Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper rode out
on their custom Harley-Davidsons in Easy Rider. Fonda and Hopper live on
in American culture – long-haired, wild-eyed expressions of bad boy
cool. The motorcycles they rode? Not so much.
If the 100-year-old company’s recent financial results are any
indication, the image of Harley-Davidson bikes as the quintessential
American two-wheeler may be fading. The US motorcycle manufacturer’s
market share slid nearly 4% last quarter. To make matters worse, it also
announced that it would scale back production and cut jobs.
