The S3 Thunderbolt is one of the best rides I have ever owned. It was a perfect machine. I guess the greed from higher ups at H D is more important than keeping and helping a one of a kind American sportbike company from going under. I feel bad for the people that will be out of a job. Times are hard everywhere but this act by Harley Davidson Motor Company is unexcusible. Sorry Erik, I hope you can survive without the Motor Company.......................J.

Jones, Wow, people who live in glass houses should not throw stones. Did you just tell us to learn to spell then misspell "tuner" as "tunner"? I will not even mention your grammer or syntax. T.
