When we talk about Cruisers in India, we are left with very few choices and when the matter comes to affordable cruisers, it's even lower- Bajaj Avenger 220 or the Royal Enfield Thunderbird.

Radials tyres are something that was available from a long time for cars but for bikes, and that too for the Indian market, bike radials were almost unseen.
