Harley-Davidson good for patient investor
Harley-Davidson Inc. dealerships are reporting strong sales in the second quarter, a promising sign that the motorcycle maker's turnaround is taking hold as the slow economic recovery continues, an R.W. Baird & Co. analyst wrote on Monday.
Baird analysts contacted 54 of 650 U.S. Harley dealers, and 60 percent said they sold more new motorcycles in the first seven weeks of the quarter than a year earlier, with sales up in the low single digits. Harley is on track to grow sales in the second quarter for the first time since 2006.
"The question is, will the broader recovery gain traction to support growth in 2012?" asked analyst Craig Kennison.
Harley's CEO Keith Wandell slashed the company's cost structure during the recession and intensified its focus on core business. Harley still controls roughly 50 percent of the U.S. motorcycle market and has scale advantages over most competitors, Kennison wrote. It also has a big opportunity for international sales growth, and its strategy of limiting supply to maintain prices appears to be working. "Harley remains a top pick for patient investors," Kennison wrote. "Inventory is low, retail is on the brink of growth and a dynamic restructuring plan is gaining traction."
Kennison set a one-year stock price target of $50 per share for Harley and he sees earnings potential of nearly $3 per share by 2012 on shipments of 250,000 motorcycles. Earnings could rise to $3.50 to $4 per share on shipments of more than 300,000 motorcycles in the next cycle, he wrote. For the full year in 2010, Harley reported net income of $146.5 million, to 62 cents per share, versus a loss of $55.1 million, or 24 cents per share, in 2009.
Kennison gives the stock an "Outperform" rating, meaning that he expects it to outperform the broader U.S. equity market over the next year.
Before the market opened, Harley's stock was flat at $36.56. It has traded in a 52-week range of $21 to $43.

This Harley's got a real beat
Harley-Davidson motorcycles have long been famous for their big booming sound, but Moncton bike owner Don Aubut has taken it a step further by mounting a full set of electronic drums to his cool 1977 FLH.
I want to rent it out as a show for special events and bike shows," Aubut said yesterday. "The ideas is that you can drive it right up on stage, put it on a rack, flip out the drums, plug it into the PA and do a drum solo. It only takes a couple of minutes to set it up."
Aubut has been working on the bike for a few months with the help of some specialists. There's still some finishing touches to be done, but he's hoping to start drumming up some business soon. He plans to charge $1,000 for the machine to appear at bike festivals, concerts and any other special event where organizers want something unique. He's not a drummer, so he's looking for some talented stick-swingers who can make the most of the unique setup.
A long-time Harley rider, Aubut says he saw a similar setup at a bike show in Montreal and decided to try it himself. He got some help from Luc LeBlanc, a well-known custom bike-builder at Kent County Customs; and Andy Davis, a veteran drummer at the Long and McQuade music shop in Moncton.
The bike had its headlight and running boards removed to make room, and special brackets were built to hold the Roland TD-9 percussion pads.
Electronic drums are different from regular drums in that they use flat percussion pads connected to an electronic sound module, or "brain." When you hit the pads, the electronic signal goes through the brain to an amplifier or PA system. The sound module has many settings so you can create hundreds of different sounds - from regular drums and cymbals to steel drums, pings, pops, crashes and even voices.
The bike has five pads. The kick drum and high-hat pedals are located on either side of the bike so the drummer can sit in the regular riding position and play with both hands and feet. The bike just needs to be leveled and the sound module plugged into a PA system. The bike is still rideable but Aubut says he'll take it to special events on a trailer so it will be clean and ready to ride onto the stage.

First ride: 2011 Harley-Davidson Blackline
Iconic manufacturer's newest model is a remarkably civilized package with a smooth engine
BY DAVID BOOTH, POSTMEDIA NEWS MAY 12, 2011
I think Dennis Hopper -- were he alive and, more specifically, still riding motorcycles -- would like Harley-Davidson's new Blackline. I say that because the Blackline looks strikingly similar to the Billy bike Hopper's character rode in Easy Rider, the most famous motorcycle movie of all time.
Familiarity, always so important as we grow older, would immediately make Hopper feel at home. After all, the recently deceased scandal machine -- you know, sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll in epic proportions -- claimed to have designed the Billy bike himself (although it was actually built by long-ignored African-American custom builder Ben Hardy), saying it was "much more practical" than the monstrously stretched "Captain America" bike Peter Fonda's character rode in the same movie.
But the similarities end there. The original was a classic (and probably leaky) Panhead police bike customized with a true rigid frame and extended forks, while the 2011 Blackline features Milwaukee's latest TwinCam96 V-twin, a slick-shifting six-speed transmission and the Softail's faux hardtail rear suspension. In other words, while Hopper's Billy bike might have been problematic and uncomfortable crossing the country Easy Rider-style, the Blackline can do so without concern.
Certainly, it's more comfortable than it looks. Oh, the flat-riser bars (two-piece on the Blackline rather than single-piece Billy bike items) and the far-forward footpegs challenge my already decrepit lower lumbars and rigid hip flexors, but the seat itself is incredibly comfortable. Harley seats have undergone much change in the last year and are dramatically improved for it. The same applies to the suspension, which, though it appears familiar, also feels vastly improved.
The faux rigid frame still uses two short shocks hidden under the engine, but, despite a relatively short suspension (just 91 millimetres of travel), it handled Toronto's moonscaped roads better than I remember previous Softails doing. Ditto the front fork -- looking like it was sourced from the Wide Glide -- which was compliant yet still firm enough for good control under braking.
Braking, as with many of Harley's Softails, is the Blackline's only significant weakness. Harley riders must fear locking the front brake more than the end of the world or impending nuptials to Rosie O'Donnell (I'll let you choose which is worse). How else to explain the front disc, which, though solitary, is still a fairly beefy 296-mm item and is squeezed on by a genuine four-piston caliper?
The only way to make this combination require this much lever effort is to deliberately mate the package with an oddly sized master cylinder. As it stands, the Blackline is one of the few motorcycles I've ridden on which I couldn't lock the front wheel no matter how hard I railed on the front brake lever. Perhaps The Motor Company could offer a choice of braking systems, though, as I've been told, many traditional Harley buyers like their motors strong and their brakes weak.
The engine, that big 96-cubic-inch (1,584 cubic centimetres) pumps out about 90 pound-feet of torque as low as 2,000 rpm. There's not much in the way of horsepower, but, then, that doesn't matter since no one revs any Big Twin past 5,000 rpm. Mated to the Cruise-Drive six-speed gearbox, the bike gets up to speed quickly enough.
It's also admirably smooth for something with two 95-mm pistons whirring through a massive 111-mm stroke, especially since the engine is rigidly mounted (as opposed to rubber mounted) to the frame. Thankfully, the engine has internal counterbalancers that keep most of the vibration in check.
Most importantly, the styling works just as well in 2011 as it did in 1969. The low, densely packed rear end is offset by the airiness of the raked and extended front fork as well as the skinny 21-inch spoked front wheel. The matte-black frame is a nice touch and the gas tank has been cleaned of its redundant secondary gas cap.
The only discordant note is that the engine's left side cover is powder-coated glossy back. The side cover of a Harley engine is a large affair, far too big to be covered in that much bling. It just doesn't fit with the Blackline's bad-ass image.
Nonetheless, the new Blackline ($17,149) is a remarkably civilized package. The main features -- suspension, seating and smooth-running engine -- conspire to lend the Blackline a cruising ability Billy could only dream of -- in a package he would instantly recognize.
