Actor R Madhavan Becomes The First Owner of Brixton Cromwell 1200 Motorcycle In India [Video]
Actor Madhavan is a well-known name in the Indian film industry. The actor has been part of several movie industries and is an avid biker. He owns several expensive motorcycles and is often seen riding some of them. Austrian motorcycle company Brixton made its official debut in the Indian market last year, and it looks like they have now started deliveries as well. The brand handed over the first bike to actor Madhavan, and the video has been going viral on the internet since then.
The Austrian-based motorcycle brand has partnered with KAW Veloce Motors Pvt. Ltd. in India. The video has been shared by Brixton India on their Instagram page. In this video, we see R. Madhavan walking out of his apartment toward a box containing his brand-new bike. He cuts the ribbon to unveil the motorcycle. Madhavan has purchased the Brixton Cromwell 1200, which is finished in a beautiful olive green shade.
Madhavan checks out the bike, and after unveiling it, he receives the keys and grabs a helmet. He then sits on the bike and takes it for a quick spin. The motorcycle looks great and complements the actor’s personality. The Brixton Cromwell 1200 was launched last year at ₹7.84 lakh (ex-showroom).
The Cromwell is a modern classic motorcycle featuring round LED headlamps, a 6-litre fuel tank, a mudguard that doubles as a tail section, a flat single seat, a TFT display for the instrument cluster, a USB port, traction control, cruise control, ride modes, and more. Mechanically, the Cromwell is powered by a 1,222 cc liquid-cooled twin-cylinder engine that generates 82 bhp and 108 Nm of peak torque.
The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox and has a claimed top speed of 198 kmph. The motorcycle gets KYB telescopic forks at the front with pre-load adjustable twin shock absorbers at the rear. The bike comes with 18-inch wheels at the front and 17-inch wheels at the rear. Spoke rims come as standard.
