This is so often the case, these companies that go overseas especially to China and SE Asia have short term thinking and will end up getting screwed in the end. I have as much belief in HD's marketing effort as an American Motorcycle claim to as they do to the American economy, which aint much. They will suffer in the end, and so with America.

My dad told me that when the first Chinese restaurant opened in Liverpool UK , the got done for selling Davey Crockett hats out the back door, all the neighbours complained that their cats had disappeared.
As for the China jackets, over 20 people on the Aussie HD forum have purchased them direct from China as they are exactly the same ones as in the Dealers, some have had a "genuine Made in China" one next to the direct from China and they are both the same.
I saved $500 buying mine direct .

Been in a number of places some in here can't even pronounce well off the beaten path all round the world , my dime too not uncle Sams little get get together's . Been to south american and had mexican tree rat ( Iguana ) before that is the nastiest thing I've had the misfortune put on my tongue . As for the China famine thing I honestly believe eat anything you can catch is a common cultural thing in all Asian countries in that area , Japan being a bit more cultured about it as an exception .
Even when I went deep in country in Papua New Guinea for the Sago worm festival when the deep woods tribes get together on neutral ground they had more refined eating habits than the damn Chinese or any other " nese "county in that area I've been in .

Norwegians got a fish thing they do I'll bet would make you rethink the seal fat , looked like it had been ate once already and tasted worse . Can't describe the Iguana taste just fugging nasty is as close as I can get , maybe the sauce they had it in I don't know . Not often I'll spit something on the floor . learned early to pack a lot of jerky and hi density trail mix on my outings in case the local food gets iffy , damn good habit a few places I've been .
