Thanks for this step to harley davidson. Now bye bye to Royal enfield’s single piston engines.

Dont jump to conclusion, just test India made HD in US & then talk as much. India made cars doing great business in Europe, Latin America & we only look forward.

It will be very difficult to many an indian to buy US made HD. How can they(the mass) pay for two bikes for one? And for many an indian it will be very easy to afford HD manufactured in India.
And this is very silly to stich with the idea of heritage. Royal Enfield’s sale in India suddenly increased after the Eicher chief came out of his drowsyness to maintain the same design (not of bike but engine). The bike became an attraction for youngesters when it was lashed with disc btakes, electric start and above all the gear paddle was fixed on LHS; when the gear was simplified instead of that almost home made iron JUGAD.
Even for HD in mant people in US itself are losing their interest. they want to go for Honda or yamaha. In one of the blog I read “Harleys are the yesterday’s technology in tomarrow’s price.”
On the heritage issue I again want to say that Royal Enfield had not lost its image of a Royal Bike (In india atleast) and the oldest surviving motorcycle company in the world. Yes it would have lost if they were get ready to be flexibe for the hour.
The idea of India made Harley Davidson is only great and practical.

So if it’s about where it’s manufactured and not content, why do I catch so much crap from HD riders about my Valk? It was BUILT in Ohio.. Oh yea, ignorance..
