And what's wrong with it, anyway? Who thinks all Hondas are made in
Japan, or (for that matter) all Triumphs are made in England?

That doesn't fly since they've been touting Harleys as being American
bikes even with their Showa front ends, South-American built motors,
etc.. All because they have been ASSEMBLED in the US.

Another example of America's economic decline. Might just as have the
entire
bike built in China or India. America will continue to lose global
market position.
"They" can make it cheaper and as good or better.
