Sales are strong at the Harley-Davidson dealership in Villiers-Sur-Marne near Paris, France. French bikers are rushing to purchase their ideal American motorcycles before potential trade war impacts make them unaffordable. Stephane Roger, a 55-year-old carpenter, emphasized the urgency by stating, "It's a now or never situation." The recent announcement of EU tariffs on American products in response to President Donald Trump's policies has spurred customers like Theo Mottet, a 30-year-old French soldier, to consider buying a Harley before prices increase beyond reach for regular individuals. Jean-Luc Peschel, a 65-year-old retired musician, highlighted the nostalgic allure of Harleys rooted in American culture and cinema, expressing the belief that people still need dreams and fantasies to escape reality.
