QJ Motor SRV300 Spotted; Could be Previewing Harley’s Sportster 300

Harley Sportster 300 has been in rumors ever since the type-approval documents of QJ Motor SRV 300 surfaced on the internet…

Harley Davidson has handed over all its distribution operations to Hero MotoCorp in India and taken out its own subsidiary. The move is to strengthen its position in markets where it is strong and let others handle its branding in countries where it is/was struggling.

Apart from this, another major step that the company has taken is that it is working on various new motorcycles. Its Pan America is already making inroads in various countries and it has also been confirmed for our market. ADV segment is new for the America motorcycle maker and it has ventured in with a fresh new take.

Apart from that, it partnered with Chinese auto behemoth Qianjiang to make a smaller motorcycle mostly for Asian markets. There has been no update on this officially from the company however, an interesting piece of speculation is keeping the buzz around.
