Fitch Upgrades 2 & Affirms 3 Classes of Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Trust 2011-2

18 05 2013

NEW YORK, NY – May 17, 2013 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – As part of its ongoing surveillance process, Fitch Ratings takes the following rating actions on the Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Trust 2011-2:

–Class A-2 notes affirmed at ‘AAAsf’; Outlook Stable;

–Class A-3 notes affirmed at ‘AAAsf’; Outlook Stable;

–Class A-4 notes affirmed at ‘AAAsf’; Outlook Stable;

–Class B notes upgraded to ‘AAAsf’ from ‘AAsf’; Outlook to Stable from Positive;

–Class C notes upgraded to ‘AAsf’ from ‘Asf’; Outlook to Stable from Positive.

KEY RATING DRIVERS:

The rating upgrades to the class B and C notes are a result of low loss performance and strong loss coverage. The transaction has continued to perform within Fitch’s expectations with cumulative net losses currently at 1.04%. The affirmations on the class A-2, A-3, and A-4 notes reflect loss coverage levels consistent with the current ratings. In addition, under the credit enhancement structure, the securities are able to withstand stress scenarios consistent with the upgraded ratings and make full payments to investors in accordance with the terms of the documents.

The ratings reflect the quality of Harley-Davidson’s retail motorcycle loan originations, the strength of its servicing capabilities, and the sound financial and legal structure of the transaction.

RATING SENSITIVITY:

Unanticipated increases in the frequency of defaults and loss severity could produce loss levels higher than the current projected base case loss proxy and impact available loss coverage and multiples levels for the transactions. Lower loss coverage could impact ratings and Rating Outlooks, depending on the extent of the decline in coverage.

In Fitch’s initial review of the transactions, the notes were found to have limited sensitivity to a 1.5x and 2.5x increase of Fitch’s base case loss expectation. To date, the transactions have exhibited strong performance with losses well within Fitch’s initial expectations with rising loss coverage and multiple levels. As such, continued performance consistent with recent performance for the transactions would most likely result in positive rating actions. Conversely, a material deterioration in performance would have to occur within the asset pools to have potential negative impact on the outstanding ratings.

Initial Key Rating Drivers and Rating Sensitivity are further detailed in Fitch’s Oct. 31, 2011 presale report, available by clicking on the link at the end of the press release.

17 05 2013

LOS ANGELES, CA – May 16, 2013 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – EagleRider, the world’s largest motorcycle rental, tours, sales, service, and parts & accessories company, launches the mobile version of its rentals and tours site, www.eaglerider.com. The EagleRider team has been working diligently to stay on top of the growing demand of mobile usage. As mobile usage has significantly increased over the past few years, a mobile optimized site was pivotal to meet the demand.

EAGLERIDER MOBILE APPEagleRider.com’s mobile version takes all of the key features and properly displays them on the customer’s device. While the desktop version of the website fits well on a desktop, it is not well suited or designed to fit a mobile device; the new development will greatly enhance the user experience. A user can finalize all their motorcycle rental vacation plans as well as get information and inquire about motorcycle tour packages, right from their mobile device. This is major improvement for EagleRider, as mobile optimization currently accounts for approximately 30% of the travel website’s traffic.

“We believe that a continuously improving mobile platform for EagleRider will be a major factor behind offering excellent customer service, while maintaining ongoing relationship with our customers and growing our business,” said Hal Oreif, Chief Technology and Product Officer at EagleRider. When asked why the mobile version of EagleRider.com was so important, “A majority of our customers are domestic and international working professionals that need the convenience of conducting businesses on their mobile device, it is very important that we cater to that,” added Mr. Oreif.

Indian Motorcycle Reveals Pricing as Lead Up to Historic Unveiling of All-New 2014 Indian Chief at Sturgis Rally

15 05 2013

Highly Anticipated Details Make Clear that Authentic, Affordable Choice is Coming to American Motorcycles as Indian Motorcycle Makes its Debut at the World’s Largest Motorcycle Event

MEDINA, MN – May 13, 2013 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – Indian Motorcycle, America’s first motorcycle company, today continued its trip toward the historic unveiling of the completely new 2014 Indian Motorcycle. Following on the heels of the reveal of the all-new Thunder Stroke 111™ engine on March 9 at Daytona Bike Week, Indian Motorcycle, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Polaris Industries, released much anticipated details as it accelerates toward the upcoming launch.

Staying true to its heritage, the revival of the Indian Motorcycle brand will debut with the introduction of the 2014 Indian Chief. First introduced in 1922, the legendary Indian Chief is historically the brand’s most popular selling model and is widely recognized by motorcycling enthusiasts around the world as one of the most iconic motorcycles ever produced. The Indian Chief is the flagship of the brand’s 112-year product lineup, and it has come to proudly represent the spirit of the Indian Motorcycle brand.

“We are honored to make today’s important announcements at this time, as it was roughly 112 years ago that the very first Indian Motorcycle prototype was demonstrated to the press on the streets in Springfield, Massachusetts,” said Vice President of Polaris Motorcycles Steve Menneto. “We’re especially proud to reveal that our inaugural model will be the iconic Indian Chief. Riders around the world will be thrilled to know their choice in American motorcycles will now come in the form of a brand new Indian Chief.”

In addition to announcing the first model to come out of the Spirit Lake, Iowa production plant, the all-new 2014 Indian Chief will be available at an MSRP starting at $18,999. Inventory is expected to be available at Indian Motorcycle dealerships throughout North America later this year. Indian Motorcycle dealerships will be opening across the country this summer to accommodate bike demand and service needs.

“When Polaris Industries acquired this brand two years ago, our goal from the outset was to leverage our engineering, manufacturing and operational prowess as a market leader in powersports to design and build a truly exceptional motorcycle that represents the perfect balance of legendary heritage and brilliant, state-of-the-art engineering and technology,” continued Menneto. “All of us at Indian Motorcycle are very proud to offer the 2014 Indian Chief at a starting price of $18,999. We set out to make the power and heritage of this beautiful new bike available at a price point that is competitive and more accessible to people who are looking for authenticity and choice in American motorcycles.”

The new Indian Chief will be revealed at the 73rd annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, which runs August 3-11, 2013. Specific details on the launch timing will be announced this summer. The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, the world’s largest motorcycle rally, was started in 1936 by an Indian Motorcycle club, the famed Jackpine Gypsies.
