Harley Davidson needed improvement in quality and workmanship
but where their real problem lies is in their research and
development. HD has produced the same style engine and frame
(short of some cosmetic changes) for over the last twenty years.
The Japanese bikes in comparison to the Harleys cost less, go
faster, stop quicker, and have frames that can handle the engines
performance. As far as Harleys being American made many Japanese 
bikes are now assembled in the States, while Harley Davidson has
just purchased a factory in Germany to begin producing the Nova.
