Yep. They just ran the layoff story on NBC news, stating the layoff was due to not shipping enough motorcycles.

Hmmmm, maybe I bought too soon.....maybe some deals coming up......probably not, plus I love my Ultra.

I just heard about this on the local news on ABC. On the news here in Kansas City they just mentioned the local plant. Didn't say anything about the other plants. Thats pretty wild IMO. Very poor timing for those that work there.
