    I know that Asian parts have played a major roll with Harley's that run brand new out of the factory, been that way since the 60's. When Harley started going from generator to alternator it was imports, front end tube suspension, rear suspension shocks were also but you have a excellent point.

    Even I have owned a few rice rockets in my day and used it as cheap transportation while I was rebuilding a Harley, it was not a problem and did what it was supposed to do. Point A to B.

    But, even with people all worked up over loud pipes, way people park blows my mind they have so much interest in other people.

    No problem not agreeing Rat, heck I like a bagger also. Had a few kept stock and they had the purr of a baffled scooter.

    My last build, 128 cubic inches off 100% all American Harley built by little old me. Machine works by Zippers Performance built with my specs.

    Thanks, it was a color the paint shop had mixed for some one else and they did not want it, so 150.00 worth of paint was 50.00.

    Had me a nice spot last night in Beaver Utah untill some runkie dunkie pulls halfway up next to me in an almost empty parking lot next to McDonalds. Guess what? I gave him a little screaming Minnie alarm clock treatment and after about 5 minutes of that alarm screaming he had had enough. Lol. Don't copy cat or else you'll get the treatment next.

    I prefer to park sideway. See I get in the truck stop early, grab 8 or 9 spots, put up nuke waste placards, break a green glow stick and spread it along the trailer rails and a 100 lb block of dry ice in a cooler of water for a green fog effect and hit the bed...lol just kidding
