Harley Davidson and China...what's your opinion?
Have you been following the news about Harley Davidson and China lately? You may have read that Harley Davidson, in order to gain entry into the Chinese market, is choosing one of China's largest motorcycle makers, Zongshen, to form a relationship/partnership.
For over 100 years, Harley Davidson has been made in the USA and has become a strong American icon. Harley's roots began in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Where do you think this relationship/partnership will lead? How do you think it will affect the future of Harley Davidson? How might it affect Harley's "die hard" motorcycle enthusiasts and bikers? What about it's employees and the economy, especially in Milwaukee?
If you've not seen the articles about this subject and wish to, or if you'd just like more information about it, just use your browser to search for the words 'Harley Davidson China'. There are a LOT of articles out there. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (jsonline) has a couple of very informative articles (June 8th and 10th), one of which talks about the Union's concerns with this relationship. Please, let me know what you think.
Thanks!
