If I remember right I read in the paper that harley is shut down right now for retooling. They should be back up by the end of the month, can't find the article but will research.

I just looked it up in the phone book (live in York), the main number is 717-848-1177, that should get you to someone that can get you the info.

I toured last year around Memorial Day. It is recommended to call ahead and make a reservation for your tour as they can sometimes shut down or be fully booked. The tour is not very long but you'll like it. Of course, you'll have to buy a shirt from the factory.

Last year they were shut down in July for retooling and because the new models were not released yet, this year is going to be the same. Call first before you make the trip, don't always trust the web site, my wife and I took a day off and made the trip last year after checking with the web site only to get there and be turned away.
