Hop on over to ur local Yamoto Dealer and look at the Yamoto bikes and ATV's they are exactly the same as Honda and Yamaha. They are the same, you know why? Yamoto is made in China, Yamoto has been making bikes for Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, and Kawasaki for years, in the contract Yamoto has the right to make and produce bikes and sell them under their name, they OWN the rights of old models that the big japanese mfg has discontinued, sooooo when Yamaha disscontinues the XT500 the exact same bike is made by Yamoto and sold under Yamoto's name. The Yamoto Dealer looked at my bike and told me its made in China.
So, Honda's are "poo poo" to?
Make up your mind mate, you're back end just stepped out. And you're gonna highside. I can't wait to see the crash.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
The bigger Honda street bikes are built in Ohio, the 599 and 919 are built in Itaily, the dirt bikes and atv's engines and frames are made in China and are assembled in the US, a few dirt bike and crotch rocket engines are built by Yoshy in Japan, all Yoshy engines have the 3rd letter "L" stamped on the s/n of the engine. Thats A Fact Jack!

You're all just giving him what he wants. I warned you about validating his comments with a response. He's either a troll or a neglected 12-year-old punk with nothing better to do than try and get a rise out of folks. The Suzuki site saw fit to ban him, so why don't we?
I believe my next bike will be a Vulcan 900.
It has better gas mileage than the V-Star 1100. It has better power then the V-Star 1100. It has a better warranty and a better price tag.
I like the way it fits and I like the way it looks. It is also approx. 50 pounds lighter than the 1100V-Star.
I use the 1100V-Star for comparison because for a while I figured it would be a natural progression for an upgrade, but having seen the Vulcan 900, I changed my mind.
I don't care where it's made and I couldn't tell you what a Suzuki engine looks like nor do I care. I'd like a Victory because they are built here, but they are far too expensive, so......
