     HD are in trouble and they can blame Trump all they like - but they caused their problems themselves through failing to change.

     

    Words...nobody want to buy  HD nowadays(Too big for daily rider) but they're seeing Asia as "New Mone"y because HD has drop sales in the US  and seein Asia as new market.Hwever Asia are stuck with day to day traffic jam,most people who buying HD competitor ( Triumph, Royal Enfield , Kawasaki ) expect to use motorcycle as daily rider yet still cool enough to hangin around for the weekend. Their authorized dealer in  Indonesia close down the shop due to drop on sales.

    Both ship worldwide.

    exactly but many of their parts are made in Asia ( rubber, plastic etc..) or crank perhaps made in Asia ( Taiwan, India, Thailand) under lincesed or with high supervision.I doubt European standard will meet cheap price nowadays. Everything can be made in Asia with good quality as per originals or in some cases excedeed the original EU manufactured, as long you got the market for the stuff.Most Advertising now exceed R&D or cost of production  that will affect price on the market..for example N#ke,Ad#das.

    Are Triumphs still made in U.K.? Are engines or other parts shipped to Thailand for final assembly? Just out of interest

    Not/ Made in Thailand for Asian Market( as Vespa made in Vietnam) however  compare to the Vintage one its lost much of the details.. parts mostly down grades and actually the same as Japanese motorcycle ( Smith Speedo arent exist, rubbers ,Handgrips ) . Everything made in the 50s,60s or 70s are built to last compare to what these day manufactures are making of. But i still choose Triumph or Vincent over HD . wonder did HD ever won race or any racing competition ?

    Crap over priced junk motorcycles. An entry level , beginner bike. Being made in India and I guess here as well. 

    Most third world country simbolized HD as a symbol of success. I live and grew up in Bali , where my father work for BP, however he never sought after HD ..my daily driver are VW,Vespa & Lamny with mum & dad driving. Most retired army officer own HD and become member and sometime become the leader of the club. Just think how can a retired army officer or active can buy that with below 20k BHT . Sometime HD been associated with arogant above the law rider,which turn my head around. Even the most corrupt President in SE Asia ride a HD.

    Why not?

    I find women to be almost completely interchangeable, choose a shape and size you like and any lady fitting that description will do.

    They way they behave is more to do with you, than with them.

    yes but the percentage are small.Some man thinks they can change their GF from their past and end up mostly in dissapointment.  One thing that you can change is to change yourself, WTH you want to be with a nice decent woman and find it in a bar or Prostitution. I'm not saying theyre  utterly bad people, i make friends out of them..for the sake of positive way only.

    just my 2 cents na krup

    My "home ex" and my current Thai wife get along well.  Have friends the same.

    That's good...i wonder how its gonna be when you have both Thai Ex and current wife, as Thai woman are very jealous and unstable emotional behaviour. my GF always checkin me evrytime "tam arai ror ka "  or  tam ngan nueay mai ka ?... which lead try to check whether i work or having an affair with another girls..especially Thai woman. but back to OP topics, shes never ask me anything and never want to recieve anything from me except some small portion of share payment when we go on a date ( she's Isaan girl)  ,but i know i have to be ready when she say "time to get a new farungs" .. ?

    A thread can sometimes become a bit dry. The one poster with his message that he's more into older ladies was in no way to make fun of older people. Is it not possible just to smile and go over to the next part of life? I thought it's funny, others might think different, but it was not to make fun out of anybody. 

     

      I'm sorry if I somehow offended you, it wasn't my intention. My apologies. 

    Kao jai na krup...but the picture you post not really nice IMO,  it's important to put respect eldery people/ senior citizen without  seing their nationality or social status.
