Lost in translation or not?
I was searching with google for a part number for an OEM gas cap for a 2006 Dyna and it pulled up a Japanese HD Dealer website with links to service and parts manuals and HD clothes and accessories. I clicked on Google's "translate this page" to see what happens (I've never done this before).

I had a little chuckle and from now on (I know how I am) I will probably be calling softtails "Sofuteiru".
By the way, I was in Japan in the Marines for over a year way back when and still order "beiru" instead of beer.
