My bike seems to run better those monthes. I still haven"t figured out why some people "store" their bikes in the winter.

Those are the people that are suing. If they would ride in the winter, they might not have the time for such nonsense.

I don't buy your logic here. V-Rods are completely different from the rest of the lineup. Show me a liquid cooled touring bike, and then you'd have a fair comparison. A better argument would be Harley keeps selling air cooled engines because that's the only option available for certain classes of bikes.

I'm guessing you don't know a lot about that case. That coffee was way too hot. Spilling coffee on yourself shouldn't cause third degree burns like that. Third degree burns can require amputation. That lady spent months in the hospital recovering from that incident.

This is a fair point. Had a liquid-cooled Harley tourer been available, I would have bought one.
