sportive and low priced motorcycle.
• They need to make a deep emotional connection with young generation as they are

My Recommendations My learnings • How an entrepreneur stick to his idea and never give up on his dreams. • Why response to environment is really important. • The key to a successful business is understanding to when and how to response to the environment. • Differentiation is all about emotions. • To grow international exposure : Europe and Asia prefer light weight , high technology, sportive and low priced motorcycle. • They need to make a deep emotional connection with young generation as they are their next customers. • There should be more dealerships available in countries they are selling motorbikes for example in Istanbul there is only one dealership while in USA you can find a dealership in every 20-30 mile.
