5 Years From Now When We Are All Driving Hybrid Cars 100 Mpg, How Will Harley Davidson Bikes Be Judged?
$
Description
What I mean is won’t the current owners of the big twin HD Bikes be looked upon in a negative matter that they are the leading cause of wasting fuel, contributing to pollution and global warming?
Everybody else is driving fuel efficient cars and trying to save the planet from destruction, but the Harley Davidson bikes that get maybe 25 MPG and spit out toxic C02 mixed with oil from the exhaust.
Will there be protests where people will take sledge hammers and smash those horrible HD’s?

Maybe they will be judged as motorcycles that get better gas mileage than the higher revving imports.
In 5 years, I still won’t be able to afford a hybrid. At least, I still won’t want to pay that much, Most hybrids are over priced. I’m sticking with my compact until the auto companies get it together and start building small hybrids and hybrid town cars.
Hybrids are a 20 year prospect, not a 5 year prospect.
In 5 years maybe 50% of Americans will still be driving their current car, or will be driving a regular used car, for pure cost reasons. Hybrids won’t make up more than 20% of the market, max.
HDs are an all American icon, and are often a recreational vehicle owned in addition to a regular auto for everyday use. People will still buy them and will still support them, and they will be judged exactly as they are today. People will see them and will wish that they A) Had one B) Looked good on one.

I prefer it is irrelevant or unimportant as a question. You will never see a 100mpg vehicle sold in the USA in your lifetime. Big oil runs the government. The politicians are bought and paid for by special interest groups. For the same reasons, you will never see a large availability of solar powered vehicles. Nobody can own or tax solar power so the government won’t ever see it as a viable alternative to oil. By the time we have mandates for 100mpg vehicles people will be getting around like the Jetsons do.
That was just another jab at Harley riders
If tree huggers are looking at Harley Davidson in a negative way because of mpg’s and exhaust output, then they’ll probably be ready to send a lynch mob out after me and my two-stroke by this time. And anyways, don’t most big bore cruising bikes have lower mpg regardless of whatever brand it may be??
They probably wouldn’t be looked upon in a negative manner because there will always be a group of people who like the more classical things.
the average person will not be driving hybrids that get 100mpg 5 years from now. But when hybrids do become that popular with that high of mileage HD will make a hybrid engine. YOU KNOW ITS TRUE.
You become more idiotic every day.Did your parents have any normal children?Were you brain damaged from birth or did it happen later in life?
My Harley gets 50mpg.I’ll still be riding it while you are paying out the a** for your electric car and buying those expensive batteries.See who comes out on top!!
A lot better than you will be – twits go out of favour sooner or later, classic style & history doesn’t.
As always, top of the pile, it’s a prestige thing.
