Says Bajaj Auto, For decades, she (INS Vikrant) remained invincible bravely guarding our seas. However in 2014, this iconic war hero was sent to the scrapyard.

It has lean and bold lines, a premium texture material, removable rear cowl, LED tail-lamp, 5 double spoke alloys, bold graphics, premium instrument panel with colour changing LEDs, pumped up fuel tank and ergonomic handlebars for wide open chest feeling. The bike will be available in Ebony Black and Pearl White.
