Nope.. Hadn't seen this one here before. Good catch!
Do you think that the price might actually work against? (Cheap Chinese knock-off??)
For an around-Town "Tooter", it might actually work just fine!

Hmmm. For just $1000 more I can get into the new Japanese 250cc bike market-- Suzuki, Kawa, Honda-- with better quality, higher reliability and dependable dealer networks.
When I bought my beloved her Vespa, I spent time chatting with the dealer about the cheapo Chinese scooters coming here. His policy, like other scooter dealers, was simple: "You can buy 'em, but I won't fix 'em. Impossible to find parts, might as well consider them disposable razors."
Maybe that's the solution? Give the bikes away for free, and charge out the nose for repairs?

Did I read the article correctly; Harley engine cases are made in China?

It's not ammo. Everyone is entitled to their opinion regarding foreign or domestic and whether it's just parts of a machine and loop holes that a company uses to make money; can you say Walmart and Mexico?

I'm just thinking that if one of them gets a bit loud or obnoxious during a discussion; it's nice to have this info in one's hip opocket for an emergency... You never play your best cards first!

I would not mind having one just to bump around on. Do miss having two wheels sometimes but nothing will make me get rid of my spyder. Definitely agree about the Harley thing too! Did anyone check out their website and see their other bikes? I want "tha hooligun"

I have a 2008 Johnny Pag Spyder and like it OK. I bought it for $3k, get lots of comments on it and have done a few mods on it. It's only a 300cc engine and had no storage so it's simply for local puttering.
