Master painters from the Royal Enfield factory in Chennai are waiting to get their hands on your bird
Bikers would agree how their mean machines, too, have emotional vents. And anything that expresses emotionally is a subject for art. Thus, proved: a bike can be as sexy a muse as Madhuri Dixit. If you don't quite buy that yet, let a gutsy group give you a vroom with a view.u00a0 
The carrier's loaded
The fuel tank of the show is loaded with 30 customised Royal Enfields, four limited edition tees, eight photographs of real bikers by Bharat Sikka and four digital bike arts by Prasad Raghvan. "Every owner of a Royal Enfield tries to make his bike different from the others. Someone would add a sticker that reads, 'Left Home' while others would install separate carriers, replace the factory tyres with racer ones, or simply write something on the fuel tank, even something as absurd as like 'Iraq ka Paani'.
Though the bikes on display are not for sale, but we, at the show, will propose concepts on 'how to make your bike look different from the one that your neighbour has'. Also visitors are most welcome to take a test ride," says V Sunil, executive director, W+K Expu00a0-- the gallery behind the show. There will be only 400 reproductions of the tee designs, which have three categoriesu00a0-- 'trip', 'keep it real' and the ones with 'Royal Enfield-Goa' embossed in black and gold. "The 'trip' brings out a biker's outlook and his aspirations, 'Keep it Real' has the 'stick to basics' ideology and the last one takes you to Goa, where the roads reek of bikes that rocks," he adds.
Painting the town 'ride'
The winner at show, however, is the trademark Bullet Classic. It's the wear and tear and ruggedness that calls for an encore, if not the master painters from the Royal Enfield factory in Chennai, who will demonstrate their phenomenal tank-painting skills on visitor's bikes. A rider who ain't here ain't a rider at all!
