Harley-Davidson and India's Hero MotoCorp have entered a strategic partnership. Hero will handle sales and service of Harley motorcycles in India, while also developing and selling premium models under the Harley brand in-house. The alliance marks a new US-India collaboration centered on one of the world's largest motorcycle markets.

From a market perspective, this is an extremely symbolic partnership. India is becoming the center of the two-wheeler world. What the numbers show is the reality that Western brands can no longer handle this massive market on their own. By absorbing Hero's local distribution network and mass-production capability, Harley gains a foothold with the premium segment. I see this as proof the world's center of gravity is on the move.

An affordable Harley out of India, honestly I'm looking forward to it.

If it's locally built through Hero, the price could drop quite a bit. That's the part I'm hopeful about.

Wonder how far they can actually cut into Royal Enfield's stronghold in the world's biggest two-wheeler market.

This partnership is basically Harley admitting it couldn't sell on its own in India. Guess they faced reality.

Hero doing Harley in India — that's the same setup as the X440 deal. That one was kinda mediocre though.

So now Hero's going as far as developing a premium model in-house? Feels more serious than the X440 was.
