The issue in Australia IRT this is we use to have access to land where every man and his dog could jump on some form of dirt bike and have a play, these areas are now developed, metro areas at least, the kids just don't get the exposure.

As for Harleys, here in AU a 1200 Sportster will cost $20k and a Street 500 will cost you $10k, that is insane money for what they are, plus the Harleys we get here are mostly made in the factory in India, so we don't get to add to the bikes built in the US, sorry American workers.

Anyway, why would you get a 2017 Street 500 over a 2017 Duke 390 for $6.5 on the road.?

Another issue which has already been brought up is the congestion and the lack of skill of the tin top drivers, most more focused on their phone than their surroundings.
