DOUBLE TAKE

Two more custom Classics this time around — but they couldn’t be more different!

OLD DELHI MOTORCYCLES: DILLI

You know they’re being colloquially unpretentious when they call a motorcycle ‘Dilli’ and not the anglicised ‘Delhi’. However, despite its endearing name, this three-wheeled twist on the Classic is anything but subtle. And this lack of coyness makes complete sense when you consider that Haribinder Singh Bijji, founder of Old Delhi Motorcycles, took inspiration for Dilli from the ingenious and fastidious relationship that exists between the ustads and the shagirds who pass on the tradition of craftsmanship from one generation to the next in the narrow lanes of Delhi. Sorry, Dilli.
