First Impressions of the 2017 Avantura Choppers Pravega

Pravega, When it comes to chopper bikes, we often conjure up images of custom-made bikes running on the vast roads of America. But Aventura Chopper has the potential to change this image. This is not a common garage where you throw away the keys to give your old bike a new look. Aventura Chopper is a new motorcycle manufacturer in India, which is definitely working on a small scale, but with full preparation and big dreams.

Why is Aventura different?

New brands come and go in the Indian motorcycle market. In this regard, a feeling of doubt in our mind is natural. But Aventura Chopper is trying to prove this doubt wrong. This company has its own factory, experienced team and plans for a strong dealer network. Apart from this, Kevin Alsop, the founder of America’s Big Bear Chopper, is its chief design engineer, which shows the seriousness of the company.

A new initiative in the world of bikes

Aventura has launched two bikes – Pravega and Rudra – in the market. Both names are derived from Sanskrit, which reflects the Indian origin of the company. Pravega looks like a street bob bike made bigger and flashier. On the other hand, Rudra’s design is even more futuristic and attractive.

Pravega is 2,627 mm long and has a wheelbase of 2,006 mm, which gives it a unique look on any Indian road. Rudra is even bigger, with a length of 2,908 mm and a wheelbase of 2,180 mm. These bikes are manufactured in Vasai, Mumbai and their frame is designed in the US.

Taking care of personal choice

A unique aspect of Aventura’s bikes is that they are designed according to the customer’s choice. Customers can choose the wheel, handlebar, headlight, and paint theme of their choice. Thus, every Pravega and Rudra is different from the other.

These chopper bikes have also been slightly modified according to Indian roads. It has a low seat height (600 mm) and a ground clearance of 150 mm, which makes it easy to run on Indian roads.

Riding experience

When you start riding the Pravega, its big 2,000 cc V-twin engine immediately catches your attention. This engine is manufactured by the US-based S&S Cycle Company. The bike has a six-speed transmission and belt drive system, which gives it excellent performance on the highway. The sound of this bike is so powerful that it can leave any muscle car behind.

The Pravega can be a bit challenging to ride, especially when you are riding it at slow speeds. But once you gain speed, this bike is great for running on the road. Its 347 kg weight and wide tires give it stability, but it can be a bit difficult to handle on sharp turns.

Should you buy it?

These bikes from Aventura are for those who want something different. It is priced at around Rs 21.4 lakh (ex-showroom, Mumbai), which puts it in a luxury segment. If you want a unique, eye-catching and high-performance bike, the Pravega could be a good option.
