Trump Cucked by Harley. They are moving production to India to avoid EU Tariffs on US

More proof that you people are clueless about all this stuff: it's not about the product, it's about the jobs its production generates. Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.

You cucks will remain cucks.

If a corporation moves its production out of the US so they don't have to pay US residents to work for them and don't have create their products with US steel and yet they still intend sell in the US, they should simply and completely lose the right to sell their product in the United States of America.

>Harley, truly the most American motor bike...
>Moves to poo land for the rich shit fields
America! Shit yeah! Foreign workers are mother fuckin cheap, yeah!

But seriously, only fags ride Harley's anyways. Macy's isn't doing well and neither will Harley.

Harley sells about 2500 motorbikes every year. That's the amount of cars AUDI produces in a single month

It's not just the price. Why would I buy a big old clunker when I can something lighter, more agile, and significantly cheaper.

If Harley started making crotch rockets at an affordable price I'd buy one for sure.

Those new Indians tho...

Goodbye harely stocks

Only baby dicks drive Harley

Harely has some non-boomer models that are pretty nice.

Sport bikes > harley style bikes. Anyone that drives one of those loud, wide handle-barred bikes are absolute faggots, who are insecure about their dick size. Nobody wants to hear your engine 5 blocks away.

Then we just tax the shit out of the now-imported Harley

they're moving to avoid euro tariffs not Trumps tariffs
this is proof foreign trade hurts American workers
on the bright side Harley is a chump bike anyway

This is true on a global level.

Fuck em. Kick them out and ban their importation into the United States. Whether they die or not is of no concern to me, but they should be branded as traitors and never allowed back onto American soil. Funnily enough, I don't even own a motorcycle yet, but I've been looking and I've not even ONCE entertained the thought of owning a Harley. I'd rather spend my money on a dual sport, Honda Grom and a sport bike when I'm ready to buy.

Dude. They straight up admitted that Trump was right about them already planning this in January, and the tariffs accelerating the process. Trumps just the fall guy, his tariffs had zero effect.

truth, my friends dad is a biker. I went to one of their meetups, I only saw indians with a few Harley's scattered around. Harley is popular in China, so its basically for newfag boomers and chinks.

Demand is collapsing for these bikes in the US and their recent PR moves are going to further accelerate that as they torpedo their image as the American motorcycle company. Their best option at this point is to try to meme the Harley into a cultural fad among the Chinese nouveau riche.

What did they have to say about the new Indians?

Do they like them?

These things look killer for the price.

You're ignoring that India started the trade war and Trump was the one retaliating... They've had a 100% tariff on motorcycle imports for years. Meanwhile, US has a whopping 0% tariff on motorcycle imports from India.

How is that fair? And how is Trump the bad guy for merely answering their unfair tariffs and trying to get them to drop them (at which point he'd drop ours in a heartbeat).

I dont think indians give a shit about harley.
They ride small cc hondas and shit.

Does this mean India are bringing back the 175cc Scat?

This. Unbelievably stupid move by Harley, sure hope those poos can afford to become their new customers because the patriotic Americans who used to sure won't be doing so anymore.

i knew theyd never downsize and reorganize they just want to maintain their bottom lines
i was gonna buy a sportster but not anymore

Harley has benefited time and time again from US taxpayers subsidizing them, giving them special deals. The fact that the moment it gets a little hot to stick with the US, they jet abroad is pretty disgusting to be honest. Reagan imposed extraordinary tariffs in order to give them an edge back in the 1980's. Harley never would've survived without the US taxpayer carrying their burden but Harley was never willing to lift a finger in return, as this move proves. (((Harley))) is now a globalist leech and nothing else.

That's just business. Lots of companies in the UK threatening to leave over Brexit too. Shareholders come first.

Interdimensional chess.

Who wants to buy a Harley made in fucking India? Truth is those fags have no more sales and if they did’t Move they’ll go bankrupt

India are good at making motorcycles

Those digits dont lie. Hopefully we will see Indian overtake Harley as the true American motorcycle brand.

Can't ride street bikes without getting ran over by an immigrant with no license insurance or ability to read traffic signs anyway. Harley rides are mostly Boomer yuppy faggots. Buy a Japanese dirtbike

I could see it happening.

Indian has Polaris there to subsidize them if necessary, Harley doesn't stand a chance.

Crotch rockets are fun to ride and motogp is the shit, but Harley's and chopper type bikes are usually comfy as hell and also awesome. I don't see why anyone who rides would hate on either type, but it seems most people do

That's fine, slap them with a US tariff too. Good luck in Europe, Harley. LMAO

>If Harley started making crotch rockets at an affordable price I'd buy one for sure.
Harley did very briefly make sportbikes under the Buell marque and then through corporate meddling managed to crash a massively successful and profitable segment of the company that were producing very very well received bikes right into the ground for the sake of making their boomercycles slighter cheaper. Harley has always been a shit company making a shit product and is emblematic of the sweeping problems in corporate America regarding out of touch companies too monolithic to adapt to changing market demands. Harley was always going to shift production away from the US because the alternative was producing a bike that was both desirable and more importantly affordable to the younger market segment which Harley was both incapable and unwilling to do. I honestly hope they go completely out of business in the next decade so the US can actually produce some worthwhile motorcycle.

Credit where credit is do Indian is doing a pretty solid job of trying to wrestle the American motorcycle torch away from Harley.

How are you going to explain to the shareholders that you sold zero (0) bikes this quarter because the only people who do buy them are boomers who actually believe the "built in america" crap?

you can't take them on the highway, 2bh. Even if you could reach 80 mph with them, you don't have enough power to keep up with the flow of traffic, or move out of the way of shit effectively.

They're alright if you just want to toodle around in the city, but recognize that you are willingly getting a gimped vehicle. It's like getting a big wheel or unicycle instead of a bicycle - you're closing doors for yourself, make sure you don't bite off more than you can chew.

I really don't get liberals it's clear everything they stand for is derived from bluecheckmark on twitter.

so it's more of a novelty, kind of like getting a grom. I guess if I'm going to get a novelty I might as well get a Grom in the winter for $1500.

No offense intended to poos, but isn't the appeal of buying a Harley that it's, you know, made in America?

>it's about the jobs its production generates.

And yet, unemployment is still going down overall.
I seriously doubt that one bike manufacturer relocating is going to make a dent on Trump's reputation and credibility.

I wonder if Ural motorcycles are better and cheaper. If Harley is now an Indian company, there is no reason to not pursue a better bike even if produced internationally.

>isn't the appeal of buying a Harley that it's, you know, made in America?
It's literally the only reason they're still around today.

The future belongs to Indian.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the tariffs on just steel and aluminum, so it's not even that big of a deal and if the slight added cost to the consumer changes their mind on such a big ticket item than the motorcycles are probably shit?

Harley is the Pixar of American bike manufacturers.
They've had their heyday and zenith, but it's obvious to anyone below 50 that they are no longer relevant and their legacy and stranglehold is actually holding us back in terms of progress, creativity, and world prestige.

They need to go.

Yeah but boomers got trump into office.

Not that it matters. Boomers don't give a fuck.
