Harley-Davidson in Crisis? In this episode of GarageCast, we unpack the growing tension between Harley-Davidson's board and CEO Jochen Zeitz. With Q1 numbers showing a -1.4% average dealer net profit and rising inventory losses, the stakes are high. We break down what's behind the turmoil, how H Partners is shaking things up, and why the relationship between dealers and the Motor Company needs a reset. With the May 14 shareholder meeting on the horizon, now's the time to tune in.

Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com In this episode, I'm joined by Lurch, and we discuss the fact that Harley-Davidson sales dropped by 16% in the 3rd quarter of 2023. We give you the numbers and break them down. We provide you with Harley-Davidson's response to the numbers. We also give our thoughts on the topic. 2023 has been so far so good for Harley-Davidson fanatics. The year started with the reveal of a few new big cruisers, followed by H-D's new breed of sub-500cc offerings in Asia. Then came the headline-making 2023 CVO duo, which started a new chapter of modernity for the company. However, the story seems different behind the scenes, i.e. in terms of the MoCo's financials. As a reminder, Harley-Davidson's reporting format segments the company into three parts: Harley-Davidson Motor Company (all motorcycles except LiveWire), Harley-Davidson Financial Services, and LiveWire. This structure has been the way the Motor Company has handled its financial reporting since it transformed LiveWire into its own company in 2022. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Harley-Davidson reported that retail sales of all its motorcycles (excluding LiveWire) declined in all geographic regions in the third quarter of 2023. Overall, worldwide sales were down 16% on the previous year. In North America, the Motor Company saw a 15% drop in sales in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. In Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (which count as one region, called EMEA for short), sales fell by 13%. For Asia-Pacific, sales fell by 24%. Finally, in Latin America, sales fell by 11% in the third quarter of 2023. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! So what is Harley-Davidson saying? "Against a challenging macro and consumer backdrop, we have been able to achieve a result that preserves profitability at an industry-leading level. In addition, we successfully launched our pinnacle CVO motorcycles, with CVO retail sales up 25%," said Jochen Zeitz, Chairman, President and CEO of Harley-Davidson. "Harley-Davidson remains committed to its Hardwire strategy with a focus on both desirability and profitability, and we will do everything possible to achieve our goals while being realistic that current market conditions are complex. We are gearing up for '24 and will ensure that we are fully aligned and ready as we close out the year with Q4." NEW FREE VIDEO RELEASED: Harley Can't Void Your Warranty Anymore For This! EFI Tuners?

Karna was born in DC, raised in Indianapolis, moved to Atlanta, and eventually found herself at Tulane University studying biomedical engineering and switching to marketing. Growing up watching her mom work as a paralegal, a steady, solid, job, she knew she wanted to do anything but that, which is why the fast paced marketing work excited her so much. She has gone on to work for JP Morgan, Coca Cola, Miller, Coors, Ford, Motor Company, Verizon, and more. Karna shares what challenges Marqeta is currently facing, along with the major impact they're creating in the world, why she chose to work there and why culture was such an important part of her decision.

Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com Is Harley Closing its Doors? So, what is going on with Harley-Davidson as we move toward 2023? Is Harley Permanently Closing Its Headquarters Building in Milwaukee and why? Why are so many independently owned dealerships closing their doors or selling? Oh, and what's up with the possibility of a 975 version of the very popular Pan America Adventure bike? Is the long-talked-about Harley Bronx Streetfighter actually going to become a reality? And what's all this mean for the future of the Motor Company? Well, these are all loaded questions and I have a metric ton to throw at you, so let's dive in and see if we can make sense of it all for you! 2023 could prove to be a very exciting year for Harley-Davidson. So, let's start with the question of whether Harley-Davidson is permanently closing the doors to its Milwaukee, Wisconsin Headquarters building, which has served as such since 1973. The answer is “yes”, well kind of. You see, Harley-Davidson is letting employees work from home on what may become a permanent basis. Harley's Milwaukee headquarters closed in 2020 due to the global pandemic, but Harley CEO Jochen Zeitz says the complex is going to be repurposed rather than reopened for workers. Neither Harley-Davidson nor the CEO has specified exactly what its 500,000-square-foot complex in Milwaukee will become. Still, the company insists the location will remain an important location for Harley's presence in the U.S. Further, Harley is fully embracing remote work and the flexibility and openness it brings. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE So, what's my opinion on all this? I personally think that varies greatly from industry to industry. I do recognize that there are some benefits to remote working, such as fewer distractions, workers may feel less stressed and stay more focused, and of course, remote workers love having flexibility in their schedules if feasible. With that said, I think Harley needs to tread lightly here because a huge part of the motorcycle lifestyle is riding and hanging out with other like-minded bikers. You certainly want your employees to embrace, live, and understand the motorcycle culture. That's hard to do remotely. A ton of bonding, discussions, ideas and a sense of belonging can occur during those in-office in-person hours, and those motorcycle rides to lunch and back. That can't be replicated via video conferences and virtual check-ins in my opinion. NEW FREE VIDEO RELEASED: Harley's Deal With The Devil! El Diablo Next, let's talk about independently owned dealerships. It's true that some smaller independently owned Harley dealerships are closing their doors. In fact, the Denver Post reported this month that "Rocky Mountain Harley-Davidson (RMH-D), the oldest family-owned Harley motorcycle dealership in Colorado, is shutting down at the end of the month". The longtime business, founded in 1979 by owner Kathy Yevoli, who still serves as RMH-D president, has fallen victim to a corporate downsizing strategy, said Marina Yevoli, Kathy's daughter and director of marketing at the Littleton motorcycle dealership. “We are closing, not by our choice,” Marina Yevoli said. “To be politically correct, they (Harley-Davidson) are condensing the market and independent dealers do not fit that mold. They are doing away with family-owned businesses.” Sponsor-Ciro 3D CLICK HERE! Innovative products for Harley-Davidson & Goldwing Affordable chrome, lighting, and comfort products Ciro 3D has a passion for design and innovation My thoughts are that Harley should be careful if they are in fact snuffing out independent dealerships and going more corporate. I think that move could potentially hurt them in the long run. You see, many long-time Harley customers, and newer customers for that matter, have built personal relationships with their independent dealerships and personnel and get treated in a personal way. An independent owner takes great pride in their dealership for the most part. It's more of a family-friendly one-on-one experience that many Harley owners are accustomed to and it very well may be one of the reasons they stick with Harley-Davidson. Don't forget that many of these independent dealerships have become staples of their communities. But, this seems to be the way many industries are going these days like Comoto Holdings, Inc., which owns Revzilla, J&P Cycles, Cycle Gear, and Rever. I guess only time will tell. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! New Bikes for 2023? Pan America 975 Okay, now, let's talk about the potential release of a new Pan America 975. This is not surprising to me, since Harley's first stab at the adventure market was the Pan America 1250, which quickly claimed the title of the #1 selling Adventure Motorcycle in North America, beating out other long-standing adventure motorcycles like the BMW 1250 GS Adventure. Sponsor-RickRak CLICK HERE The Ultimate Motorcycle Luggage Rack Solution Forget those messy straps and bungee cords Go strapless with a RickRak quick attach luggage system & quality bag Earlier this year, signs of the new Pan America 975 were mistakenly mentioned on Harley-Davidson's website for an accessory locking fuel cap. The fuel cap was listed as being compatible with the current Pan America 1250 models as well as two unannounced models; the RA975 and RA975S, which I assume to be new Pan America models which will be powered by the 975cc version of the Revolution Max engine, like the one in the new Nightster. Now, the fact that the smaller Pan America was mentioned on the Harley website, would suggest that they likely planned to include the mid-sized Adventure bike this year but decided against launching them, perhaps due to supply chain constraints. So, my prediction is that the new Pan America 975 will come out at some point in 2023. I will note that Harley-Davidson is expected to announce the bulk of its 2023 models in January. Sponsor-Butt Buffer CLICK HERE Want to ride longer? Tired of a sore and achy ass? Then fix it with a high-quality Butt Buffer seat cushion? Bronx Streetfighter Finally, let's talk about the infamous Harley Bronx Streetfighter that never came to be. Remember, this bike was supposed to come out in 2021 with the Revolution Max 975T motor but never did. Now, Harley never confirmed they scrapped the Bronx Steegfighter, but they did come out with the Nightster in 2022, which has the Revolution Max 975T engine. Many thought that was the replacement for the Bronx, that it was dead, and would never make it past a concept bike. However, new information has leaked that Harley reapplied for the trademarks for the Bronx Street Fighter name. So, that begs the question, how much longer will Harley dangle that carrot in front of us? Will we finally see a Bronx Steetfighter actually release and hit the streets in 2023?

In this episode, we "Fast Forward" to the Story of the 20th Century Motor Company (located in Chapter 10 of Part 2; p.616-627 in the Signet paperback edition). There are not many places on the internet to find the excerpt except for this link.Jonathan begins the Fast Forward episodes on the 20th Century Motor Company by doing a case study of the post-Soviet economy of Estonia, responding to a speech given by Mart Laar at the Universidad Francisco Marroquín in 2006 (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lasy0pfn1is). Much of Ayn Rand's purpose in this section of Atlas Shrugged is to argue that socialist policies will fail to produce prosperity and instead produce misery. Laar argues that free market ideology caused the prosperity of Estonia. Jonathan complicates both these portrayals by 1) looking deeper at the historical context of post-Soviet Estonia, and 2) examining the cultural resonance of the Communist dictum, "from each according to their ability, to each according to their need." Regarding Estonia, some sources that Jonathan drew from to prepare for this episode are:Kukk, K. (1997). The Baltic states: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. In P. Desai (Ed.), Going global: transition in the world economy (pp. 243–272). Cambridge, MA: MIT PressKukk, Merike, and Karsten Staehr. 2014. “Income Underreporting by Households with Business Income: Evidence from Estonia.” Post-Communist Economies 26 (2): 257–76. Feldmann, Magnus. 2018. “Extraordinary Politics and Durable Reform: Lessons from Trade Liberalisation in Estonia and Poland.” Post-Communist Economies 30 (3): 365–81. Tamm, Marek. 2016. “The Republic of Historians: Historians as Nation-Builders in Estonia (Late 1980s–early 1990s).” Rethinking History 20 (2): 154–71. doi:10.1080/13642529.2016.1153272.This episode contains references to the work of Brene Brown (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bren%C3%A9_Brown).My five themes to explore in this podcast's close read of Atlas Shrugged are:What is human nature?Straw-man arguments and their impact on the world Ayn Rand creates.Dagny Taggart as a true hero.How empathy can be de-legitimized.What is Capitalism and what is wrong with it?

Lei begins this podcast with announcements from the OEMs of record profits in these tough times and the cognitive dissonance of profiting the most during the most challenging times. Tu updates on the current situation on the ground in China with regard to the Covid situation and where the lockdowns are currently taking place and what he thinks will happen with the Beijing auto show that's scheduled to happen in just over a month's time.Tu takes over for Lei to make the announcements this week since Lei was traveling. Tu lists all the cars brands in China that have raised pricing of their vehicles, it's a long list. Tu highlights a Financial Times deep dive into VW Group's reliance on the China market. A fascinating piece for those that follow VW Group closely.Tu and Lei move on to a conversation about recently announced vehicles that'll soon enter the China market, with a few of them also likely to be exported to a market near you.Tu and Lei then discuss the recent rumor that Didi is getting int car manufacturing, a Didi Motor Company perhaps and whether either of them thinks it makes sense. The topic moves to TuSimple and what looks to be a planned split between their US and China entities. This turns into a broader discussion about the AV sector including what could happen to US/Chinese hardware developers. All indications point to a similar hard look at how they will be treated by each country. Tu and Lei close out the pod with a discussion on how the short-term increase in EV pricing may initially scare off US consumers and whether or not that's a good or bad thing for legacies.
It's been quite a while since Harley-Davidson was involved in road racing, but thanks to the newly conceived King of the Baggers class, The Motor Company is back on paved circuits. Last year the series had less than a handful of rounds, and to their credit, the Harley bagger, piloted by the very capable Kyle Wyman, took the Championship win. Needless to say, turning a bagger into a real race machine wasn't easy. The Harley-Davidson effort consisted of a group of volunteers at the factory who pooled a considerable amount of their time and knowledge in a combined effort to create, develop, and prepare a motorcycle that could race with real credibility. The machine itself is amazing, as you might imagine. And for this week's Podcast, Senior Editor Nic de Sena chats to us about some of the race bike secrets, and of course his ride on Wyman's actual factory race bike at Inde Motorsports Ranch in Arizona. This year, the Moto America King of the Baggers Championship has been extended to seven rounds. They've already raced at Daytona Speed Week for the first round, and it's going to be REAL interesting to see how the remaining rounds shake out. We hope you enjoy this episode! Check out Nic's story on our website!

Bell2Bell's latest podcast features Imperium Motor Company CEO Rick Curtis and Imperium Motor Company Canada President Christian Dubois. Imperium Motor Company, a subsidiary of DSG Global Inc. (OTCQB: DSGT), seeks to transform the way the world drives by making greener transportation available to everyone. Throughout the interview, Curtis and Dubois discussed the history, current operations and future outlook of Imperium Motor Company. “The Imperium company idea started out when we had a client who wanted to equip his fleet of electric vehicles with a device for tracking and set up a geo-fence that could limit his drivers' area of operation,” Curtis explained. “I knew and worked with [DSG Global CEO] Bob Silzer on a few other projects over the years, and I knew he had the solution. We always talked about doing something together, and then, the time was right. Imperium uses a traditional sales channel, with a distributor-dealer model. In the near future, we will assemble some of our products in North America. Then, we would be [executing] a manufacturer-distributor-dealer model. We also will be distributing the INDI One vehicle, as well as the CMW Sagitta. They are both manufactured in North America.”

In the tenth episode of It's The Small Things, we spoke to Simon Saunders about how he's built Ariel Motor Company into a successful brand that comes with a two-year waiting list. Brought back to life at the turn of the millenium, Ariel adopted the name of a British engineering company that built the world's first bicycle and went on to innovate historic cars and motorcycles. The business shot to fame when its flagship car, the Atom, appeared on Top Gear and went unbeaten around the show's test track, a record it held for two years. Despite the huge demand for its vehicles, Ariel continues to operate with a small team of 35 and builds just 120 cars every year at its Somerset premises. In this episode, you'll find advice on: Developing a clear ethos for your business Building a strong supplier network The impact of giving staff autonomy

Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com Harley-Davidson has been making a ton of changes to the overall company structure in 2020. I've released several highly viewed videos on our YouTube channel in reference to this subject and I'll list them below along with some related podcast episodes we've done. It seems the temporary CEO, Jochen Zeitz, is trying to realign the company and has even pulled out of some overseas markets. Per Zeitz, the company is going to focus most of its efforts on its current line up of bikes and on its current core customers, while still trying to attract a new generation of riders. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE In this podcast episode, I brought on guest Michael Rubinson, who is a 28-year-old rider and currently rides a Yamaha cruiser. He would really like to buy a Harley but the Motor Company has put up many barriers to entry over the years when it comes to attracting that younger generation of rider. Michael and I discuss many of those barriers and what Harley should do in 2021 to not only serve its current core customers and riders but to try and break down the entry barriers to younger riders. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Listen in to this episode as we dive in deep on this subject matter.

ACTOR AND CHICAGO P.D. STAR JESSE LEE SOFFER - TO TALK ACTING, CHICAGO P.D., MOTORCYCLES AND HIS INVOLVEMENT WITH THE NEW HARLEY-DAVIDSON ROADSTER CAMPAIGNJesse Lee Soffer is currently starring on the hit NBC show Chicago PD with recurring spots as the same character Jay Halstead on Chicago Fire. Jesse began his film career in 1993 at age eight in the movie Matinee. From that point on, his work included time on such television series as Guiding Light, As the World Turns and in the film In Time amongst others.Jesse Lee Soffer, avid motorcycle rider and enthusiast, is available to discuss his love for riding, his involvement with the new Harley-Davidson Roadster campaign, his role on Chicago P.D. and his career including other projects he has in the works.Jesse helps introduce the new Dark Custom Harley-Davidson Roadster motorcycle, Harley-Davidson is taking its new stripped-down, agile bike to city streets via pop-up Bike-Shares to give people a chance to test the bike out in its intended urban environment.Harley-Davidson borrowed the popular bicycle share concept to showcase how, for as little as seven bucks a day, Americans can own a new Dark Custom™ Harley-Davidson® Roadster™ motorcycle – less than the daily cost of a bicycle share rental in all U.S. cities. Temporary Harley-Davidson motorcycle-sharing stations showcasing the Roadster will pop-up in select U.S. cities, including Portland, Los Angeles and the Motor Company's hometown of Milwaukee, just as Roadster hits local dealerships.ABOUT CHICAGO P.D (WEDNESDAYS 10/9 CENTRAL)At the center of "Chicago P.D." is Detective Sgt. Hank Voight (Jason Beghe), who is at ground zero against the war on crime in Chicago. He will do ANYTHING to bring criminals to justice.From multiple Emmy Award-winning Executive Producer Dick Wolf and the team behind the hit series "Chicago Fire," "Chicago P.D." is a riveting police drama about the men and women of the Chicago Police Department's elite Intelligence Unit, combatting the city's most heinous offenses - organized crime, drug trafficking, high profile murders and beyond.Handpicked as the head of the Unit is Voight, who has assembled a team of diverse detectives who share his passion and commitment to keeping the city safe. They include Detective Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda) who is more levelheaded and "by the book" than his counterpart; Jay Halstead (Jesse Lee Soffer), a brash young detective who previously saw active military duty in the Middle East; Halstead's partner Erin Lindsay (Sophia Bush), a former "bad girl" who turned her life around with Voight's help; Alvin Olinsky (Elias Koteas), an experienced undercover detective and confidante for Voight; and Adam Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger), a quick-witted cadet plucked from the police academy as Olinsky's partner.The unit includes a new member in the form of Kevin Atwater (LaRoyce Hawkins), a charismatic patrolman who recently was brought upstairs. Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati) and Sean Roman (Brian Geraghty) assist with the unit, but on a daily basis, they work the streets as uniform patrol officers working with Intelligence whenever necessary. Desk Sgt. Trudy Platt (Amy Morton) runs a tight precinct with tough love, although she lets her softer, more vulnerable side shine through from time to time.WWW.H-D.COM/ROADSTERWWW.NBC.COM/CHICAGO-PDACTOR, PRODUCER, WRITER AND DIRECTOR, JOE MANTEGNA TO CO-HOST ANNUAL NIGHT OF REMEMBRANCE HONORING OUR AMERICAN HEROES: PBS' NATIONAL MEMORIAL DAY CONCERT JOE MANTEGNA AND GARY SINISE CO-HOST ANNUAL NIGHT OF REMEMBRANCE HONORING OUR AMERICAN HEROES: PBS' NATIONAL MEMORIAL DAY CONCERTLive From the U.S. Capitol, All-Star Line-Up Features: General Colin Powell, Renee Fleming, The Beach Boys, Katharine McPhee, Trace Adkins, S.
