There’s some great news out there this week. While COVID-19 continues to wreak havoc in the world, there are some good stories out there that you should really pay attention to. Here are some of the best motorcycle news stories of the past week.
Honda, Norton, and KTM make the news roundup this week. These news stories are all a look towards the future, which is what I encourage people to do these days.
331 Parties Have Expressed Interest In Norton Motorcycles
A lot of folks seem interested in buying Norton. 331 parties were interested. Of those, only 29 made formal offers, and hopefully, one of them takes the brand and makes something of it, otherwise, its assets will be liquidated and the company will be dissolved.
KTM and Bajaj Will Focus on Electric Scooters
Pierer Mobility Group, which is KTM, wants to focus on electric scooters in its partnership with Indian bike maker Bajaj. The company is looking at 2022 for the target date for these scooters.
Honda Is Working on a Rebel 1100
Honda makes a lot of great bikes right now, but there isn’t a really good large cruiser from the company. Well, that may change. It seems Honda will make a Rebel 1100. Oh goodie.
