If you refer to the "American" made bike manufacturer placing ads in Japan touting their products, after referring to "JapCrap" made over there and then sent here?  Yep !   Wonder if the locals see the latent hypocrisy?

A friend and long-time H-D rider tells me her next motorcycle will not be a China Glide.  I don't know much about it but I gather that some sound system components and chrome doo-daddery is  being made in the  Peoples Republic. 
Rumor I came across had H-D talking with the Chinese about opening a plant, there.

I did the York Pa tour last weekend with my hd buddies and there were quite a few boxes/crates with Germany stamped on them...I pointed that out and got the standard still better than jap crap...American made should be American made...not German made and assembled in he US....
