Harley, Triumph, Royal Enfield are the ones that I can recall currently being made in India. Probably several more, people need simple reliable transportation.

Ah yes, Royal Enfield was the one I was confusing this with. You would think that I wouldn't have made this mistake as I have a Slovick background and even speak Russian! I think I need another cup of coffee...
