    Why is the Harley so underwhelming?

    Ok, I've fully upgraded the Harley, and it sucks. The BMW is a far superior bike in all stats. Why is this? Did the dev's intend to do this? In my opinion, they should move the bike down to tier 2. I think it could really compete in that environment. Or if you're not doing that, at least buff the stats a little bit to make it more viable. If you're thinking about maxing the bike pit, DON'T DO IT! You're wasting resources doing that.

    The Harley Davidson badge on the side of the tank is probably the biggest cause of its lackluster performance. At least they’ve made the bike realistic.

    Thanks for the warning. I was really debating whether to dump gems on maxing it out but if it's not even competitive then I won't bother. With how bad I've noticed the grip is on it, I don't see how it could compete in tier 3 when the tracks are so steep.

    There is no realistic answer to this, besides marketing from Harley to new age riders. I would like to point out that the custom bikes have a better feel and look than any other replica that looks oversized. On the plus side, this event gives out gems and a new bike that should be used in the bunker.

    Because it has to compete with the bmw and the ktm's. Those have more speed, and are flexible. The harley doesnt feel like it beats them in any way. Grip, handling, lean, speed and acceleration feel worse than the bmw to me.
