Delivery of 4,000 pre-sold Sport Classics will boost revenues in 4Q, but how many will actually take delivery given economic doom and gloom? |
On the positive side, shipments to North America and Japan were up on last years first half.
Would be interesting (in a funky finger tapping beancounter kinda way) to compare the other manufacturers results for same period....or maybe not.
