It should get interesting if the article is true and they start assembly in India to avoid the import taxes. I can see HD owners having a shit fit if any bikes come state side. God forbid they start manufacturing and send parts state side.

What most people don't know... They already do! It's not American made, it's American assembled.
Most here also probably aren't visiting the HD stores either, but if they did they might take notice of all the shinny chrome accessories Harley has hanging on the walls that are made in ...??? ...yep ...CHINA.

The only way to see exactly how much of it is really made somewhere outside of the United States, is to take one apart and try to find the "Made in ..." Stamp...
Buell was so called American motorcycle. Even though they ran a ad, pointing to different parts of there bike and where they were made. And only one thing was made in the USA, the frame if I'm not mistaken.

HD koolaid drinkers would never bitch, they're already too brainwashed to ever believe anything other than 100% American made right here in the good ole USA.

I guess the image will be shattered. Oh well. Maybe the damn things will come down to a realistic price.
Clearly you've never shopped model vs. model using HD and any other manufacturer... their prices are quite comparable, and their resale blows all the competition away

I've posted comparisons before.
Their closest competitor in terms of product is Yamaha (Star).
