They need to rip off the Ducati Scrambler ASAP. Even just a universal japanese bike aka standard bike or whatever. No more cruisers or street 500 aka watered down cruiser. They need to do something DIFFERENT than their usual, for a reasonable price. I'm not paying 10,000 for 1940's tech just because it was made in the USA. That's taking advantage of people's patriotism.
You do American industry a favor by buying the best product regardless of where it's made. Detroit has come a long way but not because they are driven by customer satisfaction, but by the bottom line and unit manufacturing cost. The end result is that they make a better car because they had to. Thank you Honda, Nisson, Toyota et al.
