I think your missing the point, all the other manufacturers are required to make their parts available to the public. ... except Harley

I don't think Bob Glidden would have sold you his cylinder heads...he wouldn't even lift his jacket up to let people see them

I don't think Bob Glidden would have sold you his cylinder heads...he wouldn't even lift his jacket up to let people see them

But he had to use parts that everybody else had access to. V&H are THE ONLY ONES that can run those parts, nobody else has access to them!

They started out with a Ford part # on them that anyone could buy, I do believe they were allowed to make their own intake which was what Glidden was hiding

 

[stitcherbob]

ok, change my answer to intake...
2 Harleys against everybody else, and it took them a while to be a winning combo...I would want to be exclusive for a while too

Yes--VHR Suzuki engines.

Shares of the iconic motorcycle maker fell more than 5 percent after the company admitted that problems with bike parts shipped from overseas have been hampering production and hurting sales.

we’re manufacturing product internationally, and with that, a majority of the supply chain is international,” Chief Financial Officer John Olin told investors during a conference call.

bike are being assembled at the company’s manufacturing plant in Kansas City, Mo.

My Brother was all over my Dad for buying an Acura, turns out almost 80% of parts are from US, vs only 60% American parts for his Mustang and Escape

 

[Sandman]

My brother didn't do any research before buying his new Chevy Silverado and was pissed to find out it was made in Mexico. Same with my '93 GMC I bought new, assembled in Canada. But besides that, I used to be a bike guy and Harley was never on my radar. Why? Simply because I like speedy things, not "sounds fast" things that put out less horsepower than my 450cc motocrosser.

[Sandman]
