Highland seems to being making another effort, they have some private equity companies backing them.
Here are a few….
Grupo Vargas SA
Brookstone Partners LLC
Craigstone LTD
They invested 2.5M collectively in June of 2012.
Former HD executive John Fitzpatrick was named CEO in Sept 2011
Highland had operations in Asia they operated inside of Luoyang Northern Enterprises Group Co., Ltd (DAYANG )
At one time the Chinese had the Highland bikes listed and the 950 twin as well, not anymore.
Highland was touting Made in America, but some raised the question about the Asian operations and subsequently the listing of the 950cc twin was removed?
But it still can be found on the B2B sites advertised,

Yes Highland had some bikes made in China for a short time.The CEO moved from Sweden and set up in the USA Oklahoma I think.The CEO/founder was killed in a plane crash a couple of years ago.He gave up on China a long time a go.The bikes where/are made in America.Wouldn't surprise me if that business in China has some 950 twins sitting in the back of his factory.
