I don't go to the dealer too hang out. I go to buy parts that I need to keep the bike running and bolt.

Didn't their slogan use to be: BUY HARLEY, BUY AMERICAN? Yep, the wife and I were at the local stealer to buy a neutral switch for my bike and while there started looking around at all (non-motorcycle) stuff on the showroom. Btw, only about a third of the showroom is bikes.......the rest is clothes and coffee cups and pen/pencil sets and belt buckles and many other things that have nothing to do with riding. Most stuff was made in China and Honduras. Did I mention that my leather "Harley Davidson" jacket was made in Indonesia? Nope, no more paraphanelia for me.

Two shirts I got from La Crosse hd were usa made, but went to kentucky for xmas, four rivers hd, had both usa made and chinese-honduras-etc made shirts. Guess it pays to read the labels.
