Alright one more time; posted on the orginial thread about this Xun and his Chinese H-D manufacturing of leather jackets. If you do order from Xun, use western union, at least he would not be able to drain your bank account. Have fun getting it out of Customs with out paying taxes.

Xun wanted my bank account number awhile back, except he used a different name, stated his assets were frozen in a thrid world bank account. With my assistance providing my bank and account number he could have his monies released and reward me handsomely. Seems as though Xun has stepped up his game making a nice website providing a digital copy of his manufacturing license.....sounds legit to me....oh, one more thing.....

Buying this jacket thinking no one will ever tell the difference, then spending the extra to have better zippers and such; just get a lobotomy.

I shopped around until I found this $225 left-over stock HD jacket. It was made in the USA.

If you go to a good leather store you can purchase a real nice leather jacket for half the price Harley wants. Probably better except it won't say Harley Davidson on it. Why advertise for Harley . . . they should pay us to wear their logo.

Thanks again for a majority of your help. Still looking to see if anyone has actually used them and had success or none at all. I am not familiar with dealing with this whole customs thingy, but any info would be helpful. I obviously have not bought this yet due to my own knowledge of scams (Western Union Someone money from Nigeria for a puppy or the fortunes he is going to be granted). The thing that got me was that this site isnt listed on too many scam sites. These scam sites normally show up with hundreds of hits, when this one had like 2 (Could just be a disgruntled customer). Again keep the comments coming! they are helpful!

Right now you can get the HD Rushmore Skull Ghost Rider leather jacket for $349.99, no taxes, no shipping charges from GRHarley.com (Grand Rapids HD). You like it, get it. Forget the risk of buying directly from a shady dealer in China.

Buy two at $175. Last twice as long for the price at HD.

Opposite to what most say in here,, My HD jacket is way above in quality compared to most other cheaper made leather products....Just wait till next yr and buy last yr line.
Got mine for $125 vs $395 org price.

"Our harley davidson leather jackets are 100% genuine leather and high quality,manufactured by the Harley factory in China,even the harley-davidson company also order the jackets from them."

This was pasted from their website, notice they say even the HD company orders from them lol, after they say it is the HD factory!
