So rather than develop their own motorcycles, Harley decided it would be easier to buy MV Augusta and Cagiva. .....

Fingers crossed but this is HD, they've never done anything right.

they also make a good "oil leak cleanup kit"
 
I remember the success with Walter Villa on the HD badged Aermacchi (spelling?).Its a way into the sport and they are welcome imo.

if anything maybe the'll end up in more dealerships it's not like you can find mv's all that easy.
 
Sooner or later its my guess that HD will be in WSBK with a HD badged MV,although its unlikely they will have the same success that Aermacchi did.
