I don't think cost is necessarily the issue. It's what you get for the price paid. Poor value to most on here.

doesn't look a whole lot different from the Streetfighter they cancelled?
def a step up from the Street line that radiates cheapness
hopefully it is a better quality ride than the brutal old Sporty
suspension and brakes that actually work
and maybe it can escape the chick Harley branding as well
Indian has done really well with the Scout
same money as a Sporty but far superior bike
guessing HD is looking to get into that segment with this bike

I liked it a lot for sunny afternoon rides
bike was never pushing me to go faster
was completely useless for going anywhere though
and once I got the Capo, that poor old Vulcan got no love at all

If you are looking for value then import is where you are at . People do not buy HD looking for value . It is a premium brand .
FTFY
OMG. Attaching premium and Harley together is almost too funny.
This place us always making me laugh

Are you in the US?
They don't build motorcycles in Canada, everything is an import.

Rotax engine and brand is long out of production.
Indian brand motorcycles were built in Canada once upon a time too.

Haha, yeah, no doubt about that. Photo from 1975, so hardly current. Technically not an import, though, even used...

The engine was made in Austria. Tons of power because of the rotary valve intake but they sounded awful.
... suspension was imported too.

Details, schmetails. The first Aprilia RSV had a Rotax motor and Ohlins suspension, but everybody called it Italian.
From CBS on HD:
"Harleys sold in the U.S. are indeed assembled in one of four plants located in Wisconsin, Missouri and Pennsylvania. But the brakes and clutch are imported from Italy, the engine pistons are made in Austria, the bike suspension comes from Japan, and other electronic components originate in Mexico and China."
(To be clear, I'm not actually holding up Can-Am as an example of exceptional Canadian motorcycle manufacturing. My understanding is that they weren't exactly a business success story...)
Well. Show me a modern Can-am MOTORCYCLE.
And FYI.....BRP has manufacturing facilities in five countries: Canada, the United States (Wisconsin, Illinois, North Carolina and Arkansas), Mexico, Finland, and Austria.
And the later ones had Armstrong (UK) frames
