Look into Harley Davidson, they should have gone bankrupt multiple times but were saved by high tarrifs placed on imported bikes.

Harleys are so ridiculously overpriced it's hard to believe tariffs on the competition would make any difference

I definitely wouldn't waste my money on one, much better bang for buck out there.
