Less than a year ago the first Harley-Davidson dealership hit Moscow, now they are opening in another rapidly growing market, China. The first Harley dealership is located in Beijing. The Globe and Mail describes the scene at the store which is located a 20-minute drive from the center of town. Visitors to the store where very excited to check out the gleaming Harley models and other Harley-themed merchandise. The shop will also offer rider training and organized rides. Unfortunately motorcycles are banned on Beijing's major streets. The bikes are also comparatively pricey and can cost more than the average yearly income in Beijing.
