Heading south and I don't mean Arkieland! 500 jobs lost and familes looking for work.

Now there is even doubt about their ATV's and yes Polaris makes CfMoto.

A little dated isn't this story?

Polaris to shut down Wisconsin plant
New facility to open in Mexico in 2011
Story by Staff, May. 21, 2010

The Osceola plant will produce the new, all conquering, Thunder Stroke 111 for Indian and the new, 21st Century designs from Victory. It's not like they're GM abandoning Oldsmobile, Pontiac and Saturn, shifts in manufacturing are an ugly fact of life. Spirit Lake, Iowa and the Minnesota continue to grow.

It later kept some workers on in Osceola for motorcycle and snowmobile engine production and currently has about 140 people at the facility.

Harley even tried to shutter its York, PA operation for awhile.

Where partially assembled bikes once crawled along a conveyor belt with overhead hooks, and parts were stacked to the ceiling, there's now a production line with more than 100 robotic smart carts traveling on five rows of thin magnetic tape.

The factory's 62 job classifications have been slashed to five, and the number of salaried positions has been cut in half to 150 people.

The changes are especially evident because of the demolished buildings where Harley once made motorcycle parts that now are outsourced to other companies.

I don't know KZ? It might be like this statement you made to Jim?

No offense meant about Harleys or Linhais Jim.

Now someone called me a copy and paste person, and you know the wonder of the forward button on those emails you sent and mentioned? Would you still back that statement of no offense? You are a very shallow and weak person KZ. You go to one place and talk about the bad old dirty Harley owners and then mention you don't like the flack over here about it. Flack is what you like to give and when you continuously bad mouth anything you then get a difference of opinion and giving one a dose of their own medicine. Seems you can dish it out but can't take it very well, maybe it's the company you keep?

I also remember you singing high praises of the linhai when you were just a plain old Chinese scooter owner and how one could go anywhere on it, even told others at the despised old dawg about it. Now that you've got the used Craigslist Fashion that you've already tore down and fixed you don't like being told it's a cheap Chinese scooter as well, you want to be in high cotton but don't ever want to shell out the bucks to be there.


Lastly you want to now come here and dispute a claim here and act like you say nothing elsewhere, we in the south call it talking out of both sides of your mouth and want to jump on the band wagon with others who want to bash Doug and I because we made peace and are getting along. You jumped on a thread of someone who was banned and went whining to another forum about it and didn't even consider the rules he broke or what he did, you got out your barrel of tar and pillow of feathers and the lynching was on. You must be proud of yourself one that has the power to pass judgment on others while supporting one who can't abide by common decency rules.

Remember that smoking out thing? Well two can play that can't they KZ? It didn't matter that this article was old, you took it hook line and sinker, you're so predictable it's plain funny. So you see I'm going to leave your links the poor guy on Doc that catches the flack from people when all he can do is bad mouth one company and glorify another and then tell others how badly he's treated when he goes elsewhere to run his mouth.

I seem to remember in one of those emails your dislike for Harley people their attire and think how all that ride a Harley are just low lifes in the 50's and you just don't like them, I'll look on my external hardrive for the email, I don't lose or delete anything.

Wonder how long it'll take for you to find someones used wore out Indian on Craiglist so you can buy you a nice leather jacket and jeans and ride off with that Harley look? Never saw anyone with so much bad feelings toward anything on two wheels, you must have had a dirty old Harley person hit on your wife or something, don't know but you have it bad.

Now you can go back to Doc little man post away about the mean old JR and even see if you can find another joke to throw at Doug and I, BTW I heard that joke when you were in diapers, you really should get in the later decades we are in now.

One last tidbit, this isn't the place for you to come and bad mouth anyone, you want to stir the pot here, the copy and paste thing can have a fallout on others that seem to forget things they sent to others and I'll not be pushed here at all so I've got some good advice for you, I'm not interested in what you think about the things I've just said here so keep it to yourself.

Since Someone mentioned that Rich made Doc to avoid the drama you keep the drama exactly there where it really is with the banned one who got all of you gathered up in the lynch mob to start with.
