    Not just too dramatic, also inaccurate to say the least. The board track death? In reality that killed the racer who crashed, another racer, and a few people in the crowd. When it's already known as a bloodsport, the death of one racer isn't going to mean much.

    Pretty much when they dropped the racing team, took their toys and went home iirc.

    I'd have a hard time considering them very innovative after the late 40's. I think Honda sealed the deal in the 60's since HD couldn't match their innovations in engine development, they were put in a defensive position of capitalizing on their existing platform and post-war followers, eventually turning them into a lifestyle brand.

    I'm about halfway through the 2nd episode of this three part series. It's actually very good. They took extreme liberties with the story, but what remains is still a good romp through the companies early more innovative times.
