## Caption

In the 1970s, Harley-Davidson was so unreliable that dealers kept spare bikes just for customers waiting on repairs. 

AMF took over one of the most iconic brands in the world and turned it into a punchline. What happened next — and how Harley clawed its way back — is one of the greatest turnaround stories in business. But it nearly didn't happen.

AMF era: rock bottom that saved Harley, or an era that should never have happened?
