Wow, this morning's St. Joseph, MO News-Press announced HD had a 91% drop in second quarter profits, resulting in 400 lost jobs in the Kansas City plant, the remaining job cuts at the Milwaukee plant and it's financial services division in Chicago.
The KC plant will shut down production the entire last three months of 2009, nationwide all plants to shut down for five weeks of this year.
And to think all I see when I look around are motorcycles, more than ever....and most around here are Harleys. With the economy, gas prices, etc, people are riding more than ever....but apparently riding used bikes.
My '89 Wing looks sweeter and sweeter to me every day....
