Why is Harley-Davidson dropping diversity initiatives after the right-wing anti-DEI campaign?

What is their product?

But Harley is trapped. They’re a lifestyle brand, not a motorcycle company. When you look at them as a lifestyle brand rather than a motorcycle company, a lot of things start to make sense.

So what do you do if your existing customer base of geezers and sycophants hates the idea of you selling to a new demographic? If you’re Harley, you keep selling to the old demographic and hope for a miracle.

How did your marriage end?

They’re terrified to abandon these guys because they know these guys buy their bikes, at least until they go broke buying Trump shoes and NFTs. Millennials think Harley Davidson is a joke, mainly because Harley Davidson is a joke. Gen Z is like “Harley who? You mean the Joker’s girlfriend? Margot Robbie? Yeah, she’s hot.”

The demographics for Harley-Davidson are just as grim as their sales figures: the average Harley customer is over 50, and the average age of a registered Harley motorcycle is about 10 years.

Harley-Davidson is facing some rather unfortunate demographic realities. If you look at their sales since the 1990s, they’re looking pretty grim:

Is anal sex allowed in Islam? It's not written anywhere in the Quran whether it's forbidden or not.

The Geezer Brigade starts flinging their walkers about and posting angry diatribes on AOL.

Harley geezers love spreading contempt for smaller, lighter Japanese “rice burners,” after they’ve taken their Geritol and used their walkers to hobble to the front porch for another rousing afternoon of “hey you kids get off my lawn.”

They sell obnoxiously, stupendously overpriced bikes to old white men who wear Donald Trump jackets.

Why cant I sleep on my side after getting my covid vaccine? I just got the shot and I’ve been overstimulated from not being able to sleep, my arm is very sore and it hurts so much to move and I just want to sleep but it hurts if I lay on either side

What is their lifestyle?

Big noisy eyewateringly expensive machines that make senior citizens feel like it’s still 1962.

This…is not a healthy company with a bright future ahead.

What does pompano fish taste like?

They need new customers or they’re done. Their existing customer base is aging out and, well, dying. Millennials don’t like their motorcycles, but Harley has long been a company that flat-out refuses to change their products to match what people want; they’ve long believed they should make whatever they want to make and people should just buy that.

What happens if they try to attract new customers?

Next year, things will turn around. Next year for sure. We just have to hang on until then. Next year.

Had strong anxiety, heart palpitations, headaches and fear randomly over twin flame presence, 20 mins later he didnt acknowledge me saw a photo of a girl on the back of his phone faced up. Assume it was a new gf. Was this a warning of seperation?

Conservative old men who haven’t seen a movie since Dennis Hopper stopped being a leading Hollywood draw.

All their existing customers shake their canes and whine about them “selling out.”

What happens if they build new bikes?

What is the most interesting question you can ask to get to know someone?

If Toyota were facing demographics that grim, they’d, you know, change their lineup and try to appeal to new customers.

Whenever they try to get new customers, they risk pissing off the dudes who were born to ride Donald Trump, or at least fellate him.

Do people really never face any hidden costs or surprises with surgeries in countries with single-payer healthcare like the NHS?
