A guy can buy one and run it for 20+ years if he takes care of it. Applying automobile manufacturing principle to a motorcycle just doesn't make sense. It's also not like there's some new and improved bells and whistles that come out for motorcycles similar to cars. Bikes are a niche market item, plain and simple.

The union represents Harley-Davidson workers at plants including one in York, Pa., where the company plans to lay off over 100 workers.<br /><br />Harley-Davidson argues that steep trade barriers in a high-growth market, not a desire to cut American jobs, "drove the move to Southeast Asia" !!!! <br /> <br /> Harley says the "new Thailand plant" will help it serve "more Asian riders" !! <br /> <br />Mr. Akaravech’s most expensive Harley, a custom 2013 Road Glide, cost roughly - $60,000, - thanks in part to "Thailand’s high tariffs". <br />In the United States, the "same model retails" for just over half that amount. (The Thailand plant would assemble lower-cost motorcycles.) <br /> <br /> The company opened a similar plant in Bawal, India, in 2011 to help it get around that country’s 100 percent tariff on imported motorcycles. It also assembles motorcycles at a plant in Brazil and has a wheel factory in Australia. The Thailand plant will assemble motorcycles for Asia that were previously imported from India or the United States. <br /> <br />LINK : https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/23/business/harley-davidson-thailand-factory-manufacturing.html<br /> <br />Exhaust Pipesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-36116631093223241622018-04-24T21:21:33.391-05:002018-04-24T21:21:33.391-05:00TKC geezer hate American companies and workers, ju...TKC geezer hate American companies and workers, just to protect dear leader.
