From forum member Robert @ Honda.

While all Honda HS928 models are "Made in Japan," the engines used on K1 models are cast and assembled at a Honda plant in Thailand, then shipped to Japan for installation to the frame.
Yes, there are many Honda engines made in China; Honda has a number of plants there. Most are motorcycle or scooter. All of the 2-stange Honda snowblower engines are made at Honda Thailand, while all single-stage snowblowers and engines are made in Swepsonville, NC.

Currently, just a about 10 or so models of Honda Generators are actually mfg. in China. The rest of the line up is made in :

USA (mowers, small tillers, string trimmers, single-stage snow, GC/GCV engines)
Japan (pumps, tillers, 2-stage snow, many generators)
Thailand (larger GX engines, smaller inverter-style generators).

and notice how un-informative the article is. it tells us that Briggs is made in USA if it has the sticker saying so, and that Honda is made in China, but nothing else.

who is the moron who wrote this article ?

this is what I'm talking about, when I say the public is being DUMBED DOWN by the mass media and advertising.

even their expose' articles, expose nothing.
