The company is currently working on organising a rally from Guwahati in Assam to Tawang via Bombdila in Arunachal Pradesh to give its brand image a boost, and is inviting Honda customers to take part in it, he added.
"We are interested in organising a bike rally in the North-East to strengthen our brand image. We are considering to do it this year," Taluja said.
When asked if it will be for all HMSI buyers, Taluja said, "Usually premium bike owners are more willing to take part in such adventures. We are looking to invite customers who have bought bikes of 250cc or above category."
HMSI at present has 17 dealers across the North-East region, and it is adding 3-4 more by the end of this year, he added.
