S&P assigns Harley-Davidson notes A

Standard & Poor's said it assigned an A rating to Harley-Davidson Funding Corp.'s Rule

144A $1 billion 6.8% medium-term series C notes due 2018.

"We expect proceeds to be used to repay commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes," explained S&P credit analyst Andy Liu.

The notes are guaranteed jointly and severally by Harley-Davidson Financial Services and Harley-Davidson Credit Corp., the agency said, adding that the ratings on Harley-Davidson, including the A corporate credit rating, were placed on CreditWatch with negative implications on April 18 based on the deteriorating outlook for the motorcycle market in the United States.
