3 More Harley Davidson Bikes To Be Made in India http://bit.ly/XOpTRY

Victory Motorcycles Vision & Cross Country Come to India

Victory Motorcycles has confirmed that the first two motorcycles to be present in Indian market are the Vision and Cross Country Tour. Victory is currently testing the Indian market, since Harley Davidson has entered the market with big hopes. Harley Davidson has already their foot in the Indian Market, in fact they have started to build their factories, and dealers.

This will be a challenge for Victory Motorcycles to enter Indian market. However, Victory has been pushing greatly forward, and growing in fast pace. Couple days ago I have found out that Victory is doing an amazing deal for everyone that wants to own a new bike. And now I find that they want to enter Indian market, which is great. But can Victory concur everything at once? Or are they just grabbing too many things at one time.

Victory Motorcycles is not aiming to sell the most motorcycles, they are attracting motorcycle enthusiasts to their selection. The two bikes will be imported completely build unites, and the price will be doubled compared to what they sell for in US. However, Victory knows they won’t get the double bucks with Vision and Cross Country. If Victory Motorcycles decides that they market is good for them they will plan on building a plant just like Harley Davidson did. Or another scenario might be that Harley Davidson will be too busy with Indian market and will forget to focus on the US market, which will allow Victory to spread their wings even father in US.

Incomplete Indian Motorcycles

As the day was passing by, I was thinking of going out and riding. The temperatures today were in high 40′s, which is perfect weather to get out on the road. Recently I have been wondering on what Indian Motorcycles has in stored for Daytona Bike Week. I went over to their website, and checked out the events, but found completely empty description. Even thought it says read more on the website, but when it is clicked it only states the website of Daytona Beach Bike Rally.

I was thinking that I was on the wrong website, and that this might be not supported website. However, on the bottom of the website it says 2012, so it has to be supported by Indian Motorcycles. I took a peak at their Apparel and Gifts section to see what new jackets have been added. What I found was nothing special or new, but missing images from the products.

I am a person  that would not buy without seeing the image first. So for example I saw Ladies Retro Jacket on the website, and read the description, but no image. Indian Motorcycles have just lost a sale, or maybe two. If this keeps up I don’t think that Indian Motorcycles will play a big role in 2013. All thought some top writers have been saying that 2013 will be the year of Indian Motorcycles. I guess they have to start somewhere, and build up their trust from customers. I would not blame Polaris for lack of interest in Indian Motorcycles company, since both websites have their own IT crew. I hope that Indian Motorcycles will wow people in 2013, and give their best.

Harley Davidson Custom Seats

It is about time Harley Davidson has added Sportster to custom seat program. Starting from year 2004 to those that are planning on getting a new Sportster. The reason for expansion, and adding Sportster is that Harley Davidson is celebrating 110th Anniversary. Sportsters will get tow new seat designs, a solo and two up one. The solo seat will be named Brawler, and the two up seat will be named Sidekick.

  As a user you can choose between 13 stitching patters in 10 thread colors, while inlay’s can be embossed leather with ostrich, alligator or snakeskin textures. Once you wrap up the whole seating process you can place it with one of the participating dealers.

As you look at the screen below options are not limited when it comes to creating new seat. I like that it gives me option to reset the whole project to the base. Another cool feature is that it shows you actually how much the price for the seat is. Create your own seat for your Harley Davidson Sportster by clicking here.
