They do this with guitars. fenders lower reissue like for example has gone to mexico. And amazingly they are great. I have one i swear id better than the USA reissues. But others they've sent to various countries ahve been disasterous, tho only the abvsloutle low end stuff. But for the most part the results have been great.

However, do this to my friggin Triumph and i may not buy another one !!! Part of what i love about them is the british heritage, and i barley got over the shock of finding some parts were sources from Japan. But i lived with the electrics because Lucas.....well, you know. Now this ! This is just one step closer to making triumph a asian bike no different than a honda or yamaha except in design.It would make the kawasaki clone as much a triumph. Don't do it triumph !
