When does that Harley GP bike come out again?

HD isn't and prob never will make a GP bike. That's not what they are trying to do either.
I don't know all the details, but HD has made a lot of changes/inovations in the last 20+ years. Trust me, a 1989 HD is not the same as a 2009 HD.

As for the jap bikes... compare the first models to HD's of years prior. There were a LOT of similarities. who copied who?
