I feel very cultured given I have lived around the world (literally). I am still proud to look at my handlebar clamp on my 48 and see Milwaukee USA stamped on it. We ride an American ICON...it's our motorcycle company let's be sure to support it.

moresky - Are you retarded or something? HD has been outsourcing parts for more than 30 years.
My 2011 Impala has 73 % US/Canada parts. When I had a 03 Izuzu Asender Limited it had 83 % US parts.
It's called a global economy now. Time for you to adjust.

Someone can correct me but the Japanese Nissin which makes the brakes has an US based plant as many other Japanese companies do like Shimano and Showa.

Had to remove a front brake caliber to take off the front wheel for powdercoating and was surprised to find the bolt was metric.
All my suspension upgrades - Ricor and SuperBrace - are US made.
