Angry Motor mounts ?

How long are the mounts suposed to last ,from what I am getting here 10,000 is good I think that is crap, if this is what you get with a Harley I am going to go with a jap bike, is every thing made in the USA Crap I just dont get it we used to be Great but what happened to Quality? I have 11,000 miles and had to replace bearings that leaked in outer primary and now I find I should have bought baker instead of moco ones if this is all I have to do is work on this its not for me !.........
