You're thinking of AMF. Lots of people groan about the AMF years, but they saved Harley from financial disaster.
Yes, I remember the AMF years. Harley-Davidson was ready to collapse in 1969 when American Machine and Foundry bought it. AMF used to manufacture a lot of recreational products, but today it only operates bowling centers through AMF Bowling Corporation. AMF sold Harley-Davidson to a small group of investors in 1981.
