It's like every 7-11 in the country just became an H-D dealer.

The cartoon character Abu from the Simpsons works at a 7-11 and this bike is made in India, guessing that's the connection you were trying to make. Bet you got a lot of laughs from the other 7th graders at recess on that one.

Good thing you were here to explain it.

Well, that didn't take long. Harley went from just having assembly plants in India to now actually manufacturing bikes there and apparently shipping them to America for sale. I find it sad that the great American motorcycle icon has sold out for cheaper labor costs.
The rumor mills about Harley-Davidson producing an entry-level 500cc bike were once again stoked after Harley Chief Operating Officer Matt Levatich reportedly confirmed the motorcycle is getting ever-closer to production. According to Loz Blain’s article on Gizmag, Levatich intimated that the 500cc motorcycle will be produced in India.

That's one of the more polite things I'd call it...
