Harley-Davidson is one of the leading premium cruiser bike manufacturers who sell its motorcycles in the country.

They also have a merchandise-only showroom at the International Airport in Mumbai.

Harley-Davidson has a first-of-its-kind mobile dealership called Legend on Tour. Passport to Freedom is a program that is encouraging new riders by introducing them to techniques that help them become better riders. Harley Rock Riders, Harley-Davidson’s annual motorcycle and music festival, also gathered momentum for the brand in its tour across New Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Lucknow, Jaipur and Nagpur.

The company has 26 Harley Owners’ Group (H.O.G.) chapters with more than 7,000 H.O.G. members in the country currently, with regular experiential group rides all over the country being a regular occurrence.
