You're just jealous because the American Unions only let you drink Coffee and take 40 minute breaks every hour............

I don't know, the 50 minute breaks and wine sodden lunches sure produce a beautiful very high performance machine, certainly a better performer than anything Harley and Buell have managed on their own. They do cut into profitability though. Can't we have both the 50 minute breaks, wine sodden lunches, and a bottom line. Nah.
