Cleveland was found in 2009 and has a small lineup of motorcycles on their side. They create custom designs and may help Indian buyers get a great machine that fits their attitude. They will compete against typical Indian segments like Cafe Racer and Retro machines, not forgetting their capable dirt machines that rival Kawasaki entry level dirt bikes internationally.
They have considerable presence in almost 23 countries around the world. The brand sources major components from China and make bikes ranging between 110cc-450cc. Range of bikes on offer includes FXX and FXR, both being 110cc dirt bikes for early riders. These two are not meant presently for Indian market.
