There is a certain freedom that comes with riding down a long highway at eighty miles per hour on a Harley Davidson. That kind of freedom is something that only a minority of society chooses to indulge in, while another minority looks down upon them and chastises them for their decisions. “All bikers are bad news and the scum of society” they say as they sit in their easy chair reading shakespeare and sipping tea. Even to this day, there is a stigma held against the biker community that they are all just a bunch of trouble makers and beer drinkers that live outside the laws. Being a man who has been around the biker community since I was born, I’m here to share some knowledge and hopefully convince the skeptics that not all bikers are bad news.

According to me, the motorcycle industry is very attractive. The main reason to back my claim is the level of competition in the industry. There is a very high level of completion between all the companies present in this particular segment. The main factors that drive this rivalry are different positions of different players within the industry, differences in technical know-how, different marketing campaigns, differences in core nature of the products and differences in strategies. The players in this particular industry don’t fight over price of their products, they rather compete with each other in terms quality of their products and the nature of their services to different segments of customers. Each player had its own unique strategy and nature of the product for a particular segment of customers, this tends to intensify the competition amongst companies in the industry.
