I'm satisfied with the HD 4 point dock. Never a problem hooking up the backrest or the TourPak. Feels safe and secure.

Ya, and I'll bet your the same guy that offers $50 bucks for $500 bucks worth of used Harley parts that are only a year old.

Originally it read. " I bought a knockoff 4 point dock of dubious quality, so, if you can read this the B**** fell off." but it was shortened to increase font size and better fit on the back of a t-shirt.

I have seen tons of cold welds out on products that I have worked on out of China. The plastic is also questionable. IF the factory that they are made in is of has sufficient quality control they can produce good stuff but 9 times out of 10 that is not the case. I have also seen fasteners that never get hardened.

I have worked with China for over 20 years for the manufactures of the products I designed. No thanks on knock-offs for me. The companies that are copying stuff lack an engineering presence from what I have seen.

I like my H-D kit. I don't like sending my money to China. But the H-D kit is probably farmed out to China.

I don't know where you drew that inference from, but you need to re-shoot your azimuth and pick another direction, because you're way off course.

With some things I can and have gone with cheaper and possible QC issues, but that's not one of them I'll gamble on. The current back seater is a keeper.
