Default HD Stickers / Logos on Japanese Vehicles?

Very curious what others' thoughts/reactions are when they see a Japanese vehicle plastered with HD stickers and logos.

I drive a Mitsubishi and have Harley stickers on the back... because I also own and ride a Harley. I don't see why that would be an issue.

I had Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Yamaha stickers on my Ford Pickemup and a HD trailer hitch cover on my Subaru. I think it's funny.

LOL, since more Toyotas are built in the USA than Harleys, I think its ok. Since the Japanese content on Harleys includes critcal parts like carbs, suspension parts and God knows what else, it is totally hypocritical to diss folks for owning cars with Japanese content , built here. BTW, most Japanese cars destined for the US market are designed or have large design contributions from their US design divisions in California.
