Terry,

I've got a good friend who owns the largest dealership in Houston. The sales have been slowing for over two years now.

They tried to hide it by shipping more bike overseas.

If you go down to Easy Rider, you can find brand new Harley's with zero miles on them that are one a two years old.

There is a great trip each year for the dealerships that make there quota. A number of the dealers have been selling the bikes on the black market for cost at the end of the year in order to qualify. This have been going on for some time now.

I've wanted to short the stock, but it has strong financials and as brother Bum would say......it's a story stock, don't short it.

When the WSJ article came out, that was my clue to jump on board.

I'm hoping to cover in the mid 30's.

I've got a bike that won "Best of Show" in Sturgis in 1985, and still hold the Houston record for highest HP out of a 80 cc engine. Gotta have some fun in life.

Weshallsee,

Jim
