Harley made it through two world wars and a very rough restructuring during the financial crisis. And now it's up against new challenges, as CEO Matt Levatich works to globalize sales amid a US market decline, recruit younger riders, and contend with the itchy Twitter finger of President Donald Trump, who has praised and penalized Harley in equal measure.
