@aeroliner750 One of my friends over there says that the Harley Sportster is very popular... they've been imported there for nearly as long as they have been in america, but I think Japan got its first HD dealership and official japan compliant motorcycle (brighter headlight and different breaks I think) around 1990. From what I read, they have about the same market share there... ~30%. Dont know if they dominate bike events like here in the US though.

Umi is the humankind's home.
And Umi is mother of the humankind.
When we watch the sea, we feel peaceful.
It resembles a feeling when we are embraced by mother.

Yes, the Harley-Davidson is popular with many riders in Japan.
There is the club of the owner of the Harley-Davidson, too.
I have seen 100 motorcycles of the Harley-Davidson ran in a group.
In Japan, "883" seems to be particularly popular.
However, unfortunately I do not know the Harley-Davidson well.
