Lehman Trikes in Hog heaven after Harley deal
RICHARD BLACKWELL
Globe and Mail Update
WESTLOCK, Alta.  Harley-Davidson Inc. has partnered with a Canadian company to manufacture a three-wheeled version of the famous “hog.â€Â
Lehman Trikes Inc. of Westlock, Alberta said Friday it has signed an agreement to convert Harley bikes into three-wheeled vehicles, known as trikes. The deal lit a fire under Lehman shares, which trade on the TSX Venture Exchange. They rose 56 cents, or 187 per cent, to 86 cents in mid-afternoon trading.
The new trikes will be built on a Harley platform and sold as original equipment branded Harley-Davidson vehicles at Harley dealers.
The assembly work will be done at Lehman's facility in Spearfish, South Dakota.

?? Could be they are looking at maintaining sales as their customer base ages.
Fortunately Triumph riders are better balanced and age more gracefully. (not to mention Ma's Rocket trike)

That is a very unusual move. There is such a small market for trikes what could they be thinking. I have a better idea for them. Harley Tricycles! Get em at age 3!

I understand they are negotiating with a Mexican company to put training wheels on sportsters.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

Looking at all the other 'lifestyle accessories' stuff they do, I bet they actually do them already!
