Is Kawasaki outsourcing?
I just did a fuel tank swap on my 10R, and I noticed the label under the fuel pump says Kawasaki and Mitsubishi. Ummm can anyone explain this?

All the OEM's outsource. Both for OEM parts and especially accessories.

Mitsubishi has been making parts for bikes forever. my 1973 RD350 was almost all Mitsubishi. It's good stuff.

Yeah, Harley outsourced the V-Rod to Porsche...
Harley Davidson doesnt have the R-D to produce a good strong V-Twin motor...
