They seem to have recognized the huge potential of the Indian bike market and look very well on route to encash their image in the country as much as possible.<\/p>\n<p>So to keep pace with times, they need to have something real strong up their sleeves which will guide them to the pinnacle in their second most important Asian market. The officials at Harley Davidson are pretty much in talks with local dealers and vendors to help them build up a <strong>\u201cMade for India\u201d entry level cruiser Motorcycle<\/strong> which pretty much would be \u201cMade-In-India\u201d by Harley Davidson.

Now Harley has been facing quite a lot of competition from the Hyosungs, Kawasakis and the Hondas for a while now, and with the slew of launches these companies have lined up for the near future, the road definitely does not look rosy for the classic American brand.
