Harley-Davidson India has opened a new dealership in Coimbatore. Spread across an area of 8,000sq.ft., this is the 21st dealership of the company in the country. This Western Ghats H-D facility is situated at 1018, Avinashi Road - 641018. This comes as a good news for the motorcycle enthusiasts of the said region as this is the first H-D showroom for them. Brands like Indian Motorcycles and Triumph do not have any dealership in the region but, might just consider coming to Coimbatore to make their presence felt against the American legend. Presently, Triumph and Indian Motorcycles have 12 and 6 dealerships in India respectively, against 21 dealerships of Harley-Davidson.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Vikram Pawah, managing director, Harley-Davidson India, said, “The passion, enthusiasm and respect the Harley-Davidson brand has received from customers and enthusiasts in the Southern region continues to inspire our growth plans. The Western Ghats Harley-Davidson in Coimbatore is part of our natural progression to reach out to more brand enthusiasts and cultivate the sport of leisure motorcycling in the region. We look forward to solidifying our presence in India by growing through a trusted network of independently owned dealerships.”

Rally which is scheduled to take place from February 18. This Harley rally will be the biggest national rally by the company till date. Speaking about the 4th India H.O.G. rally, Mr. Pawah said, “The India H.O.G. Rally is going to be a grand celebration of the adventure-loving, rebellious spirit of Harley-Davidson and we look forward to riding with our customers, many of whom will be attending it for the very first time.” Recently, the company launched Sportster 1200 Custom in the country with a price tag of Rs. 8.9 lac (ex-showroom, Delhi) which is an addition to its existing line-up.
