The Vrod would of cost $40,000 just a few years back.

$20,000 only use to get you what was on the showroom floor while you waited 6months and another $30,000 to get what you really wanted.
I disagree. HD is built in US. When HD was AMF (pre 1981) I would agree most parts came from Japan with assembly in US but in 1981 AMF became wholly owned by HD, Japanese parts were used up and manufactured in US. I owned the 1981 Milwaukee addition to commemorate the sale back to HD, it was to say the least a mut with a mix of both Japanese parts and US.
