Here’s some very positive news for motorcyclists regarding the record Stimulus Plan that President Obama is signing today. The AMA (American Motorcyclist Association) fought to have motorcycles included as "qualified vehicle" purchases under the stimulus plan.

So please help spread the word about this new development to all the motorcyclists you know!
