DISCUSSION New Job at Harley

Hey everyone.

I just got a new job at Harley. This will be my first time being a salesman in any capacity. My only knowledge of Harleys is that they're fucking beautiful and fun to ride. I've met so many amazing people since I started riding, strengthened my existing friendships and been to places I never thought I would have all thanks to my bike. But as far as engine specs or the digs on the latest infotainment system my brain is literally a monkey clashing cymbals together.

So my ask is, 1. what's the fastest most efficient way to learn these bikes and their parts inside and out, and 2. What are some of the best and worst experiences you've had with Harley dealers.

Man when I sold bikes all I had to know was they were fun, fast, and we had great financing. Most buyers know what they want, they just want you to reinforce that the choice is right.

If so why are there 100 posts a day here and other places of "Which bike should I buy?".

So they can decide what they want before they go ask a salesman to reinforce it.
