I was checking out Benelli, and wow they have a great history, but some of their bigger bikes such as this 2007 Tornado

are still outside of Chinese manufacturing capability.

But there are some engine designs which could be made in China...

What about this engine or whole bike even, or a slightly simplified and detuned version?
