I can still remember walking Into Bruce Bristol Honda BSA Triumph and Norton in 1967 in my hometown that's when the British still ruled the motorcycle world.  Just fell in love with all of the british bikes at the time, good to see them revived I wish them well.

Triumph's were our locally sold Brit bike. Loved the purple and white 67'/68' Bonneville. Overnite Honda took the American market by storm. The gentleman that was selling the Tramp's also was selling Honda's out of the back of his garage on a road across from the high school. Seen a lot of CB/CL 350 and SS/CL 90 pass thru his garage door.

India is turning out Royal Enfield motorcycles for quite a few years now and are gaining traction for their reliability, performance, and pricing.
Cycle World had a positive road test of the Himalayan model (400 cc) in the third quarter magazine.
