Harley-Davidson, a leading US-based motorcycle manufacturer, will shift the production of its Pan America, Sportster S, and Nightster models to Thailand beginning in 2025.

This move has generated concern among American customers and workers, particularly those in Wisconsin, where Harley-Davidson is based.

The company plans an additional nine million dollars investment in its US facilities, emphasizing that the shift is temporary.

The production relocation has raised fears among workers in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, who are concerned about potential job losses.

The International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers has expressed disappointment, feeling the company is turning its back on American workers.

Harley-Davidson had previously relocated the production of motorcycles for the Chinese market to Thailand in 2019 to avoid high tariffs imposed by China on American-made vehicles.
