Congrats! Wow, what an exciting opportunity!

Help them out, they've been long behind the technology curve and are still trying to catch up. I blame former CEO Keith Wandell. He only wanted to focus on cruisers, didn't understand why anyone wanted sports / race bikes and didn't understand why Harley needed a racing division. I think it was under his tenure that they kicked Eric Buell to the curb. I think that dude did a lot of damage to innovation.

Thanks, however I’m just excited to be part of the team! Every manufacturer has its challenges. I’ve owned many Harleys, still work on them. But I didn’t post this to put HD in judgement. Just that I’ll be working for them!

No idea what specific engine I’ll be working on, and I won’t be able to share anything I see or learn unfortunately. I can’t even SEE my work area until I’m employed and cleared!

Logically they are very protective of their new and developing bikes and engines.

Congrats on the new career ending job. I hope you enjoy the work and can be a significant dynamic force in helping them evolve.

If you get a chance tell them they don't have to just make push rod V Twins based on 1921 technology. If they want something good to offer Right out of the Box they could resurrect the 1250 V Rod engine and this time put it in a performance frame and make a real Riders motorcycle out of it.

And instead of shrinking it down to 750 or 500 cc, boost it up to 1900 or 2000 cc.
