Are they all made at the same plant or are the USA bikes put together at Honda's USA plant?
I believe that since the Marysville, Ohio plant closed in 2009, Honda hasn't made or assembled any bikes in North America.
They did close the motorcycle manufacturing line.
It's all used for automobile assembly now.
Since Honda (cycles) and Honda (cars) are two separate divisions, with separate budgets, trademarks, dealers and properties...it gets confusing when cars and bikes are assembled in the same complex. On the books, the Marysville cycle plant closed. In fact, nothing was shut down or taken down (except the Gold Wing tooling, which was shipped back to Japan) or anyone laid off. It's just become a dedicated automobile-assembly facility.
