Yes you should. You should at least get top-flight suspension. At the very least. But you don't. You have to source that after the fact.

Grandfather, Step-father, Uncles, step-brother and son all owned HD's and none of them remained stock for long. Son got tired of losing and bought an RC-51.

Now THAT'S a twin!
[emoji173] the RC51 and I believe the race version was the HRC51. My ex-boss has a RC51, the fuel tank is signed by the late Nicky Hayden.
This one is supposed to be pretty sporty
Buell? No longer made, as HD wouldn't make them a good engine, so Buell wanted to use CanAm engines and that did not make HD too happy.
No, Harley Streetfighter. Supposed to be out next spring
I see. Buell had a stiff chassis good, geometry and suspension, but the engines couldn't handle the power they pushed them to. I believe Buell wanted a good 90° twin, but the R&D would have cost prohibitive for a small manufacturer like HD.

Now they have gone all clean and everything, what happens to the batteries when they go bad?
Is a little 2 stroke smoke any worse for the environment?

Notice, it's another Democratic law. Give in one inch and they'll take everything.
My old Harley doesn't leak oil, suspension stinks, gets great fuel mileage and the seat is perfect, after it was changed out. Can kick back and ride all day. The seat was part of the Harley tax.

Hired ground crew should just mow the grass and skip the trimming and getting grass off the sidewalks. City folks will change their minds when weeds and grass against the buildings get knee high. And just wait for the leaves start falling, who's gonna rake that up, the officials.

That link just led me to cr*p. This one worked better:

Leaf blower bans are not uncommon - mostly based on noise. Lots of other noise ordinances in many cities.

I would fully support a Ford Raptor based leaf blower being used in Ann Arbor. I would recommend a Raptor based lawn mower with vacuum attachment as the first step. Raptor based chainsaw and trimmers as well, full size Raptor, do not be scaling it down for the sissies that weigh everything.
Oh no it so heavy!
Shut up, it’s good for the environment, sissies.
Ford is clearly missing a market area they should pursue.
I also have no issue with the ban as described, just want to see Raptor based lawn care equipment.
Noise pollution is horrible.

maybe Harley could use a good engine while Ford is at it.....
