that is a good way to feel and I bet that you take great pride in what you do own.

however remember that not everyone can do that.. I'm sure that initially, the price of the 20k harley was part of the reason you bought the cheaper one. in your own words, it was a good bike. there are countless examples of this all over americana. how many of you go to the grocery store and buy generic or store-branded groceries. same concept.

not condoning someone "stealing" another design, but having stuff made in china is an invitation to having a vendor's stuff sold across the black market.
