Thing is they aren't Chinese, they are made in Texas.

RE: Imitation harley sold in HD dealerships
I'm partial to dealers who handle several brands--preferably all brands.My favoriteboat dealer handles every major brand of outboard in one badge or another. They saved me a bundle of money and trouble by steering me away from a certain size motor in a particular make. They were willing to sell it, but refused to recommend it. The majority of professionals who work on the water around here swear by that dealer--and give them their business. Not many dealers like that, but they are golden when you find one.
Harley has a major advantage in bikes due to their dealer network. Don't blame them at all.

The Harley dealer in Morristown TN also sells grinders on the same floor...
That just doesn't sit right with me and it seems like the same thing in a different flavor.

No sir, no where near $3500.
Those Ridley START around the $12k range if I remember correctly.
I've never seen anything but HD or Buell at my local dealers.
Those bikes vegashd posted are made by Hyosung.
However they read "Aquila" on the tank.

Yeah, Ridley was the one. I didn't ask the price. Probably not in the $3500 range.

RE: Imitation harley sold in HD dealerships
There are all kinds of Harley dealerships that sell other brands....(there are quite a few in New England, the midwest and Canada)..........most areas with a population of less than 100,000 couldn't survive on just one brand (not even if it's harley). I work at a dealership that sells harley, honda and yamaha.......and when it comes to feeding my family, I'll take your money no matter what you decide to ride
