Here is a desi9gned and made in the USA (Alabama) Motorcycle that uses more parts made and sourced in the USA than HD, Indian, Polaris etc.. put together. Mind you not all parts but more than all the others.

If you get a chance give one a test ride, even if you can't or wouldn't buy one; they are impressive.

The BMW dealer up in Grand Rapids is a Motus dealer now.The 2017 MSTR sells for $38,273.00...The 2017 MST sells for $31,898.00....That's a niche market
Ya, they may be nice, but not worth 2 F6B's. Not even close.
$38 K for what? Just another MFG. following in the footsteps of Victory.
Agree. CRAZY price for that motorcycle. Does it come with a "reach around"?
But hey... if we are going to expect all manufacturing jobs to return to America.. this is a taste of how prices may increase; across the product spectrum.

Goldwings were made in Marysville, Ohio for quite a few years, wonder if Honda will consider moving production back to the U.S.?
I wouldn't doubt that quite a few companies will consider bringing a manufacturing facility to this country if Trump institutes an import tax on goods brought in. Something this country has been lacking for a long time.
Jobs are a product of people having expendable income! When you have a generation coming into the job market straddled in school and other of life's debts, the last thing on the must list is extravagant over priced products. The mfg. who tries it will fail and so will the jobs.
Those who expect things are like those MFG.

VTXs were made there before the wings.
