Another "MADE IN CHINA" poster,

I would like to see proof of the wiring harness and computer, as well as a prior thread regarding batwing fairing mounts made there,

BS in my opinion,

Most all Harley electrics are Delphi. Made overseas, but what isn't. We've regulated ourselves into not being able to produce anything in America.

You can thank the UAW and AMF in their disputes for the "Harley's of the
70's !!!!

"Troll" or not. There's no reason to be upset. I believe the "outsourcing" of Harley parts started in the early -70's. Thats when Harley started to use the "Showa made" front forks.
I have always loved Harley's and probably always will. But the "Made in USA" tag on their bikes today should be changed to "Assembled in USA" maybe?

No we deregulated ourselves in the mid eighties and gave our jobs to other countries!

I can only speak for myself but if mine goes out I am completely ready to use my cell phone to call for a tow and a ride. I know us rich guys should not brag about owning one of those fancy cell phones but what the hell, I own 4 so I ride with the Big Dogs.
