I remember when almost everything here in America was made Here . But now .... if you look close almost everything , everywhere , is made somewhere else . so...... are we still Making Anything ??? and if so... where the Hell Is It. :smilie_happy:
 
you know , I have never tryed to Eat a Tuna Can .......... :smilie_happy: and as for the Bombs , it would be nice if we could build something that would LAST , and be used more than Once. . :smilie_happy:
 
yeah we did kinda get side tracted , sorry folks .......... it seemed like the Harley thing pissed some folks off . I really have No problem with Harleys ......or Harley Riders ...as long as they act the same when they are ON their Harley as they are when they are Not on it. . . But , IF a Leather Jacket with Harley Davidson wrote on it changes the way you think and act ... then , we won't ever be able talk about anything much. :smilie_happy:
 
So are we going to declare open season to rag on the Hardley Doitsons or do we defer to the thin skinned who are offended?

I like the bike and the way they sound but if they have Japanese parts then something is terribly wrong, how come they still break down?
Oh come now. I read some where over 90% of all Hardleys built are still on the road.





















The rest made it home. :hihihi: :hihihi: :smilie_happy:

It's no secret Harleys are over 30% Japanese parts from Showa suspension to Honda carbs, heck even the pipes are from China. I wonder if production has slowed? One could bet they wouldn't admit it.
