Classic Legends delivers 2000 Perak motorcycles in festive season

The Perak, which was showcased in November’18 for the first time and subsequently launched in November’19, is India’s first factory custom motorcycle. With it’s never seen before single seater styling, a punchy 334cc liquid-cooled single cylinder engine packaged in a dark, matte black silhouette, the Perak started its own category in the Indian motorcycle market.

Before the arrival of Perak, the bobber segment was predominantly a forte of custom bike builders who took to modifying existing motorcycles as well as a few international motorcycle manufacturers who got the models in their line-up via the expensive CBU route, making them inaccessible to a major chunk of Indian motorcyclists. With the Perak, Classic Legends brought the bobber culture to the fore with a motorcycle ‘made’ into a bobber right on the assembly line, in India, pioneering the ‘Factory Custom’ trend. 

Ashish Singh Joshi, CEO, Classic Legends Pvt. Ltd. said,“ The fact that we delivered around 2000 units of Perak in the span starting from Navratri last month is a testimony to the widespread acceptance of the model, which has carved its own niche and has been elevated to a cult status within just a few months of hitting the streets. ..”

Joshi added that since the lifting of the lockdown, the company has added 58 dealerships to its existing network . The company plans to increase the pre-lockdown number of 105 dealerships to 205 by December 2020, he said.
