Harley-Davidson has opened its first dealership in Russia since the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, seeking to tap demand as wages and spending surge.
Harley will sell motorbikes costing from $12,000 to $50,000 at the store on Kutuzovsky Prospect, a fashionable road that's Moscow's equivalent of New York's Fifth Avenue. Harley's neighbors include a jewelry store offering $10,000 Rolex watches, as well as Gucci, Chanel and Prada stores.
Harley will aim to sell about 200 motorcycles in Russia this year.
