The Associated Press reports that a California company making aftermarket parts for motorcycles is working on moving its operations to Sturgis, SD so that it can use that famous name for marketing purposes.

The company hasn't been identified because some of its California workers will be losing their jobs.

David Boone, the Sturgis City Manager, says about 50 people initially would be employed at the Sturgis plant, which could be built and operating within two years, making parts for Harley-Davidson, Kawasaki, and other brands.
