Just like back then if your cars mileage hit 100k, you automatically thought it needed to be junked.
They often did
I have always told people, there are two kinds of Harley owners. The ones that think they are mechanics, and the ones that are. With the older bikes, I would tell them that if you build it properly, you will still have an occasional issue. If you build them like the persons that think they are mechanics, you will always have an issue. Pretty much since the Evolution, they stay together on their own. And with all the bad mouthing, ( I did it too ) about AMF, they with Porsche, started that engine that helped Harley survive.
That was just the beginning 
When I build a pizza the depth of the mozzarella looks more like meringue......
No matter how bad AMF was the simple fact is Harley Davidson would not be here today if it wern't for them buying Harley.

I'll take a large please!
Yes there was always two kinds of Harley owners, the less than desirable ones had a tool collection that consisted of a BFH. a pipe wrench, some vice grips and a few screw drivers, Lol.
They were in my coat pocket to toss at the m'fer that just tried to kill me???????
Riding days are over here. Sold the wife's
other Fat Boy 6 weeks ago and my 05 E-glide classic went last weekend. Next on the list is the Knuck. Don't like things setting around than I probably won't use much.
I had a guy pull out in front of me probably 20 years ago when I was headed through town from my in laws. I had to lock up the brakes on the Knuck to keep from hitting him. It was dark, my light was on, and I was going the 45 mph speed limit, so no excuse.............That guy made 2 mistakes that night, one was pulling out in front of me like that, and the second was stopping at the next light with his window rolled down. When he stopped at the next light I pulled up beside him, the Knuck fell on the ground, and I reached in, grabbed him by the shirt, and gave him a couple of Motorcycle Rider Awareness Lessons........
the bike was still running, so off I went.
Another time I had a guy swerve at me on a 2 lane long county bridge on purpose. I had nowhere to go and couldn't get out the plug from my pocket as I was $hitting bricks. Couldn't catch that one.
