Who needs four wheels?
The iconic American motorcycle brand Harley Davidson has arrived in India, and they have arrived in style. At the Auto Expo'10, Harley made its presence felt by displaying this mammoth on two wheels – Electra Glide.
This ultimate touring machine can keep going on all day without breaking a sweat. Carry your luggage along in its huge compartments and keep your pillion happy in its comfortable seats.

If laid back Harley's aren't your style then you should have a look at the bikes Honda displayed. They tempted the Indian audience by displaying its flagship motorcycle VFR 1200F. This sports tourer is notable for having the first dual clutch transmission offered on a motorcycle. (Pic: Amit Chaturvedi)

Also on display was one of Honda's race track bred superbike – CBR 1000 R, popularly known as Fireblade.
Available in India for Rs 12.5 lakhs, this bike was voted Superbike of the Year 2009 by almost all Bike magazines worldwide.
Here, it was displayed in the new 2010 colour scheme.(Pic: Amit Chaturvedi) -
Honda motorcycles were always thought to be a little conservatively styled when compared to their European counterparts. The CB1000 changed all that. Styled not in Japan, but in Europe, this bike takes the naked streetbike definition to a new level altogether.
But don't let this pretty package fool you as it also packs quite a punch. At its heart is a detuned Honda Fireblade engine with enough power to set the roads on fire.(Pic: Amit Chaturvedi)
