Suspension = Japan
Voltage regulator = Australia

I'm sure there is a lot of other sourced parts too.

Axil,

If you'd click the Quote button at the top of someone's post, like I did on yours, it is easier for us to determine what post you are refering to in yours. If you don't do that, we don't have a clue.

I don't think Taiwan has the ability to make good steel for the .......maybe your on to something.  a lot of the chrome and accessory dodad's are made in backward country's but i don't know about hard wear,i wouldn't think so but i won't bet a pay check on it either.  have to check it out.   axil

You got it,, Cranks just aint what they used to be.. If your going to do any major build,,, weld em up, or buy a good USA version.

Yea, you're going to start something with that one. Others swear they're made in China, but of course no one has any proof of either. ;)

Seriously, it would be interesting to develop a "Country of Origin" for as much of the bike as possible. I don't think we'd be too successful with the internals, but a lot of the peripherals are marked.
