Company to watch Down Under/Internationally in 2010

Watch out Japan Inc!

Motorcycle Editor

Down Under: Kymco, as it's still coming off the long run in a difficult climate, and it has lots of new product at a super competitive price on the way. Aggressive marketing helps, too.
Internationally: Husqvarna.

Triumph. They've signed on for the Australian Supersport Championship and for good reason - it's got some very competitive machinery.

Down Under: Kymco - proactive marketing, solid products at a great price.
Internationally: Any of the big Chinese/Taiwanese/Korean marques - which are building momentum to do to the Japanese builders what the Japanese did to the British in the 1960s and 1970s.

Down Under: Deus Ex Machina, as it expands its niche products internationally.
Internationally: The rebirthed Norton (to see if it booms, or if it goes the way of previous relaunches)
