Motorcycle manufacturer Harley-Davidson has sued a group of Chinese counterfeiters allegedly selling unauthorised versions of its goods online. The complaint was filed at the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois on August 11. It accused the defendants, named as an “interrelated group of counterfeiters”, of running online stores on a range of platforms and marketing the sites on social media. The group was accused of selling motorcycle parts, apparel, jewellery and other goods “using counterfeit versions of Harley-Davidson’s federally registered trademarks”.
