From classic cruisers to cutting-edge superbikes, the world of motorcycles is as diverse as the enthusiasts who own them. This curated collection showcases the most exquisite examples of motorcycle design and performance. From the handstitched leather seats of a bespoke classic to the aerospace-grade materials of a limited-edition superbike, these machines are crafted with meticulous attention to detail, pushing the boundaries of both performance and artistry.
DUCATI DIAVEL FOR BENTLEY
Money can buy this limited-edition iteration of the Ducati Diavel, but it would have to be enough to buy both-the Bentley Batur and the Diavel. Offered only to owners of the Bentley Batur, the 500 limited pieces of this motorcycle sold out within minutes of its release. This motorcycle is a collector's dream, boasting exclusive features like 'Scarab Green' paint, 24-carat gold accents, and Bentley-inspired seat detailing. Needless to say, expect to pay a hefty premium.
Price $70,000 - $90,000 (₹58.85 -75.67 lakh)
INDIAN SCOUT CLASSIC
The Scout embodies the spirit of Indian motorcycles and is emblematic of the brand's successful rebirth in 2011. A modern take on a classic roadster, the Indian Scout Classic blends classic design cues with modern performance. Resto Mods don't get any better than this.
Price upwards of ₹17 lakh

THE TIP OF THE SPEAR
IN India’s arsenal against Left-wing Extremism, the Naxal surrender policy has emerged as a crucial weapon. By providing Naxal cadres a peaceful exit, the policy has reduced insurgent numbers, disrupted leadership structures and logistical support, and yielded valuable intelligence for counter-insurgency operations.
