Thanks, but I was just saying, already have after market exhaust. OOPs. Probably shouldn't have said that.

It is true, I saw a story on cnn about it. the process creates "unfriendly" runoff to the enviroment
they said even american leather companies ship out of the country to have their stuff tanned, then it gets shipped back.

more gov bs

the last thing I bought for me was the SE259e cams well over a year ago,
and I hope they were american made. The last thing that I bought from
the Harley Dealership was for my brand new nephew, and he did not care
where anything including himself was made at the time.

Bought 4 T-shirts on a recent trip to Vegas and LA.
The 2 from Vegas were made in Mexico, the other 1 and the one from LA were made in Nicaragua.

But I looked at a 'collector' T-shirt I'm saving from Cariboo HD, a dealer that was forced to shut down (after 70 years) near where I live.
Sure enough, it was made in the USA.
