Rajesh Karkera/Rediff.com (Text) and Hitesh Harisinghani/Rediff.com (Photographs) soak in all the razzle-dazzle at Auto Expo 2016.
Even though two-wheeler giants Royal Enfield and Bajaj Auto have stayed away from the Auto Expo this year by launching their respective models -- the Himalayan and the V15 -- a day before the Auto expo, this segment created a huge media frenzy at the Expo: some due to the launches... and some due to the glamour riding these bikes. ;-)
Welcome to the hottest stall at the Auto Expo
