Effective June 7, ex-Motor Company exec Paul Skarie replaces retired Paul Langley as President and CEO for aftermarket engine leader S&S Cycle. “I’ve long been a fan of S&S, admiring their ability to continually innovate in both the performance and racing markets,” says Skarie. “I am both honored and excited to help lead this premier brand into the future.” Most recently Harley-Davidson’s Business Planning manager for North America, Skarie was with The Motor Company for 15 years, including stints in dealer development and as Managing Director for Australia and New Zealand. “After an exhaustive and thorough search for a candidate that we felt could help write the next chapter of the S&S story, both the shareholders and board of directors agreed, Paul had the right stuff,” explains S&S Chairman of the Board, Mark Platt. “His involvement in the powersports industry, combined with a broad spectrum of experience, has forged a seasoned leader with the vision and demonstrated ability to drive S&S towards a prosperous future.”
