NTR is seen driving a motorbike and many wondered if 1920’s, the said film story timeline, had motorbikes running around in the world.Yes, there have been custom made bikes specially designed for soldiers during 1920’s. Velocette Bikes from England were one of most famous bike designs used during the time.
Rajamouli specially bought them or custom order made them for RRR. These bikes are handmade and they are rare. If we want to buy them then you have custom order or buy from collectors as they are no longer in production.
Velocette Bikes were designed keeping mobility of soldiers in mind and they’re known as featherweight bikes. They’re designed as extension of bicycles.One could carry them easily on their shoulders to cross streams and the engines were easy two-stroke engines. The company came up with 350 CC and 500 CC engines as well.
From trailers, we can say that Rajamouli bought M series Velocette bikes for the film. Looks like the production designer team of SS Rajamouli did go to many lengths to achieve authenticity to the fictional story they are narrating.
