Look at Harley Davidson the high dollar American Bike.Front end from Japan,brakes from Italy,battery from India and tires from who knows where. There is even some talk the frames are now being made in Mexcio. Folks know this and it now takes more metric sizes than the 10mm wrench they have needed for years. Do people realy care when the drop the cash on a new H/D that cost twice as much as a Japan bike of same style,NOPE.Your buying a image and in my case its all I can ride.
