Harley-Davidson Could Move out of Wisconsin

"Motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson Inc. warned its employees Thursday it could move its Wisconsin manufacturing operations to another U.S. state if it can't cut millions of dollars in costs. A recent analysis found a number of significant 'cost gaps' that must be filled for the company to remain competitive, Harley spokesman Bob Klein said. The largest gaps involved labor costs and scheduling flexibility, Klein said. 'We'll be talking with the unions about how to close those competitive gaps,' he said." -- Dinesh Ramde (AP)
