The step taken by Harley-Davidson India is commendable. There are a number of riders who own big bikes but do not possess the skills to handle them. The right training to handle big machines will help owners ride safely and also ensures the safety of other road users.

Yamaha India and Honda Motorcycles and Scooter India also conduct safety riding programmes in the country.
