I would never spot on one. My issue is they're foreign. That's why I wont own one. Built here don't mean ****. The funds still go back to Japan.
Some o them are cool looking. The RR is cool. I like a few of them. I just would never buy one. I try to support our economy buy keeping my money here...
But to spit on someones bike is assinine.

You did buy what you said you wouldn't. I am not trying to start a thread war, but Harley Davidson is about the only thing American about your American Harley Davidson. Well that and the copyright and patent.

News for you, man. Don't dig to deep into what your Harley is. It is basically Assembled here. Most every part is made in USA, Japan, China, India or Mexico.

The next time you actually witness one, tell him his boyfriend would appreciate it if he'd swallow instead. And if he has to spit it out, please turn his head the other direction.
And I'd like to respond to the American or foreign debate that is looming over ruining this thread.
To my knowledge, there is not a single foreign owned MANUFACTURING plant on US soil, only assembly plants. In other words, parts are made over there and shipped here to be assembled. It's cheaper and takes up less cargo space than shipping whole cars.
And profits still go to out of the US.
Harley IS American owned and more parts are made right here than any other "US made" vehicle.

Can you tell us where you are getting your info from? Thunder Press recently made the statement that the Harley is 95% made in the USA. I tend to believe them more than an anonymous keyboard commando.
Back on the subject at hand I've owned several Hondas and never had one spit on. Wonder where the op rides.
