Yes yes and yes. Living in jersey, 20 minutes from NYC 45 from Philly and 15 from Newark, I deal with a lot of Puerto Ricans. They always talk about how there motors are built in Puerto Rico, and how the fastest bikes in the world are in Puerto Rico. They are so full of them selves it's absolutely insane!! They don't want to hear about any builders in the US because in PR they are the best and no one can compare. I've seen more of there motors explode then make a pass.
