US Car Company Made Bikes a Hit in Japan
They can’t sell US cars in Japan, but the bikes are working. Because most can’t buy US made cars in Japan an easily, especially ones with larger size and price tags, a bike will suit just fine. A Hummer is a great example. On what road will a Hummer actually drive correctly in Japan? None, but a bike, sure why not? In a place where tons of bikes look exactly the same, getting a US made bike will actually stand out and be cool. (WSJ – Bikes)
