  • Case 8 HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC., JANUARY 20011
    Case 8 HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC., JANUARY 20011 You’ve shown us how to be the best. You’ve been leaders in new technology. You’ve stuck by the basic American values of hard work and fair play...Most of all, you’ve worked smarter, you’ve worked better, and you’ve worked together...as you’ve shown again, America is someplace special. We’re on the road to unprecedented prosperity...and we’ll get there on a Harley. President Ronald Reagan, speech at Harley-Davidson plant, York, Pennsylvania, May 6, 1987 The recovery of this company since the 1980s has been truly remarkable. When you were down in the dumps, people were saying American industry was finished, that we couldn't compete in the global economy, that the next century would belong to other countries and other places. Today, you're not just surviving -- you're flourishing, with record sales and earnings; and one of the best-managed companies in America. According to management and labor, one of the reasons you're the best-managed company in America is that you have a genuine partnership between labor and management, where all employees are valuable and expected to make good decisions on their own for the benefit of the common enterprise. And I thank you for setting that example. I wish every manufacturer in America would model it. President Bill Clinton, speech at Harley-Davidson plant, York Pennsylvania, November 10, 1999 It’s one thing to have people buy your products. It’s another for them to tattoo your name on their bodies.

  • Steering Head Bearings Saelzer, March 2014
    Steering head bearings and wheel bearings for motorcycles 2014 sälzer motorsport Dear Motorcyclist, with this catalogue we offer assembly sets for steering head bearings as well as wheel bearing sets for motorcycles. Each assembly set for the steering head consists of two taper roller bearings, upper and lower seal, adjusting washers, special bearing grease and a detailed assembly instruction. The assembly set can be changed against the standard bearings without any changes at the motorcycle. The dimensions of the bearings (inner diameter, outer diameter, total bearing height in millimetre) are listed for information. For Aprilia, Benelli, Ducati, MV, Moto Guzzi as well as for specified Kawasaki types we also offer the standard angular contact ball bearings as listed. All offered bearings are original equipment manufacturer brand. For order, please send us an e-mail with your postal address and name the item number you want to order. We will send you an order confirmation including cost for packing and shipment. Together with the parts you will receive the invoice. Parts list version March 1st 2014. The prices shown in the list are Euro prices and include the valid German VAT. The listed prices are for the complete set. For angular contact ball bearings the set is without seals. Advantages of the steering head bearing assembly with taper roller bearings The bearing of the steering head with taper roller bearings will result in a stiffer bearing and by this in a higher stability of the motorcycle in acceleration, braking and turning into a corner. During deceleration the stiffer bearing arrangement will allow the contact surface of the tire to the street (tread shuffle) to transmit the braking and steering forces precise.
