Also vehicle GVWR. The typical full-sized truck in the US would be subjected to the 80 km/h (~50 mph) speed limit and restricted to the right lane in Germany. As would anything towing a trailer.

Speed limits are fine in most cases. Whats sorely lacking is enforcement and education about passing lanes.

At the time, it made sense for Harley to just develop something in house (plus Harley’s pride being another factor) and Buell would be stuck with what…

Everyone likes to make Harley the bad guy in the Buell deal, and it’s understandable because it looks like Harley killed a golden goose in their prime.

The point of at least 50% of Morning Shifts (and damn near 100% of Orlove’s) seems to be designed to have some combination of thinking the whole world is like Brooklyn, and shaming people who have the audacity not to agree with that.

“I often spend a few idle minutes wondering what America would look like if air travel went back to being ridiculously expensive and we all just drove to Wally World instead of flying to Hawaii.”
