Getting deeper into the details, Rahul Gandhi likes the raw power delivery of the motorcycle, which gave out 70- bhp of power. In the video, he also talks about the Aprilia RS 205 two-strike motorcycle, which the political leader used to own in his college days.

Rahul Gandhi notes that he does not own a car and that all of the cars he has seen up to this point have been government vehicles provided for his use while speaking and expressing his love for two-wheelers. He also says that he doesn't drive much but that he used to drive his mother, Sonia Gandhi's Honda CR-V a few years ago.
