Looks like Highland has officially gotten in to the states after the ATK fiasco from a couple years ago.

where did they come from?
i see the sweden address in the " .se" but ...
where do they forge or make their engines, source or build chassis?
ATK and Canondale were forgettable
highland? hmm. i love the 750 big single option though
and why not be able to spec a bike to be just what you need?
i like the idea- here's hoping

Sweet. I watched them race at the AMA finals in Utah last september. looked like some sweet bikes. they had a 450 and a 5-something for the open class

The Highland is not just Assembled in the US - they claim the frames, engine cases, tranny, pistons, heads will all be made in the US

I bet some items like chains, suspension and whatnot have to be sourced out

GAH Unskippable splash AND music... AND a site thats all flash...
its a good thing you said they has Sumos because normally I would never wait or go back lol
Oh! a build your own tool coming out in Jan '10!
They need to fire their web guy or light a fire under his ass to keep it up to date.

In theory it seems awesome, shame about the website
