00:04 Hello guys, I am your host. Today we are here at Bangalore.
00:16 Our Big Rock has given us 8 BT's from Japan.
00:20 Let's find out the reason behind this.
00:23 Today, in this event, our Big Rock has unveiled these two cars.
00:29 So, you have seen these two gorgeous cars.
00:32 The one on my right is KX450 and the one on my left is KX250.
00:39 This is a Kawasaki bike. Both of these are Kawasaki bikes.
00:42 This bike has a long travel suspension.
00:48 Both of these bikes have a liquid cooled engine.
00:50 The motor cross has petrol fuel tanks.
00:53 And they have given a beautiful exhaust.
00:57 The bike has a motor cross that looks like it is going to run.
01:00 Both of these bikes have block pattern tyres which is so amazing.
01:05 The front and back has a petal disc.
01:07 Wow!
01:08 The frame is made of aluminium.
01:10 It has a sterlized frame and a swing arm which is really good.
01:14 The back has a huge chain sprocket.
01:20 I am getting so excited just by looking at this bike.
01:28 The tube tyre has a petal disc which is in a star pattern.
01:35 It looks so beautiful.
01:37 The tyres are Dunlop 80/70/21.
01:45 The back tyres are 120/80/19.
01:55 This is a tubeless tyre setup.
02:01 The front tyre is 21 inch 80/100.
02:08 The back tyres are 110/90/18.
02:18 This is a 120 rear suspension tyre.
02:20 This is a 110 rear suspension tyre.
02:22 Wow!
02:23 The bike has a long travel suspension which is adjustable.
02:28 You can adjust the damper and compression.
02:32 The engine has a split radiator.
02:41 The front tyre has a split radiator.
02:45 Both of these bikes are single cylinder.
02:48 It produces a massive power.
02:51 The front wheel is on the ground.
02:55 We will cover the event in this video.
02:59 Watch the full video.
03:01 Let's go to the video.
03:02 This is your Paul Bin from Dryspectrum.
03:04 Also known as Ghosty.
03:05 We are at the event of Bikra.
03:14 The legendary rider who is one of the greatest racers in the world.
03:20 He is a legend who brought India to the map.
03:24 He finished the event in Dakar.
03:27 This is our Santosh.
03:29 Tell us about the two bikes you have here.
03:33 Tell us about the bikes and the event.
03:38 We have a training facility at Bikra.
03:42 We allow people with an aspiration to ride off-road.
03:46 We teach them how to do it in a safe environment.
03:48 We are able to complete this picture because we built an aspiration.
03:52 All the people who came to train with us have an aspiration.
03:55 Now, where do they go?
03:56 They can now aspire to compete and participate in a league.
04:00 We are supporting them in this manner with the team.
04:03 We have a training aspect at Bikra.
04:06 We complement that by enabling the racing aspect.
04:11 This is what we are doing.
04:13 We have Kawasaki seeing the gorgeous looking MX250 and MX450.
04:20 Are there any plans for the future of riding with Kawasaki?
04:26 That's a good question.
04:28 We are open for partnerships.
04:30 We want to enable people to compete.
04:36 We have good partners in this manner.
04:40 It's open at this point.
04:42 Are these two bikes available in the future?
04:47 We have 8 motorcycles.
04:49 The team has 8 motorcycles because we have 8 riders.
04:52 So, 450 and 450?
04:56 Yes, we also have 8560 because that's the beginner class in terms of kids having an aspiration.
05:01 For young kids, they race that class.
05:03 Then we have 250, then we have 450 and then we have the open class.
05:06 As a motocross racer, what's your take in the future with Bikra and CSF Taurus?
05:15 I wish there was a league where I was participating in.
05:19 When I was racing, there was nothing of this kind.
05:22 I used to race in the national championship, but that was it.
05:26 Then I had to find my own way in terms of competing internationally.
05:30 That we are able to address with having the Supercross League in India with international talent.
05:36 Are you going to come to India and race?
05:38 We want to grow the Indian talent in this manner and give them a possibility to race at the highest level here in India.
05:45 That's what we are doing in this league.
05:47 Thank you. Congratulations on your new 8 bikes.
05:49 Thank you so much.
05:52 Today, I have Ashok George with me.
05:56 We are at the Bikra event today.
05:59 He is also a part of Bikra and also a racer.
06:03 He doesn't know Tamil.
06:07 Can you speak Tamil?
06:09 I can speak a little.
06:11 It will be in English, so please adjust.
06:14 Bro, tell me about yourself and your achievements.
06:17 I was a journalist for a really long time.
06:21 I was in the Bikra event for a long time.
06:25 I did a little bit of road racing, office racing and rallying.
06:30 Eventually, we started doing some stuff together.
06:36 We have known each other for a long time.
06:39 In 2021, everything fell into place.
06:43 Now, we are working together and we are working on how to handle the situation.
06:47 We are hoping to expand it further.
06:50 We have two beauties over here and I heard that another six beauties are there.
06:57 What makes you do this and what is your future goal?
07:06 It stems from our ethos.
07:09 It has always been about creating an inclusive environment where people can come and experience and learn about off-road racing.
07:21 We are very clear that the culture will only do what it brings to the people.
07:26 With that in mind, every training program that we have curated at Bikra starts at the baseline.
07:33 It is for people who have never ridden a motorcycle before.
07:39 From there, they start riding off-road and keep training as they progress.
07:43 Whether it is to be a legend rider or to train professionally as an athlete, we have got programs that serve the entire spectrum.
07:51 The question was, we have got these training programs, what next?
07:56 How do we complete the last version and train them to ride motorcycles?
08:01 That is when we started doing the races that we did.
08:04 Trail Attack, Ace of Throne, Xtreme Enduro are all part of that.
08:08 But then again, these are all limited by the fact that it is exposing our athletes to the Indian motor sports scenario alone.
08:21 The question was, how do we upskill them to an international scale?
08:25 When the Aisalu guys, Ishan, Ashwin, and Dheeraj, spoke to us about it, it seemed like a good place to start off with.
08:34 Because it instantly gave Indian athletes a platform to compete with and alongside international athletes.
08:41 For me personally and for example, for everybody else, we are very clear that upskilling only happens if you are exposed to much more skill.
08:50 So in that sense, it all really fell into place and things started rolling and now we are here.
08:56 So what is the procedure to get back in Bikrak and get trained? You can tell our viewers.
09:01 All you have to do is go to our website, we are on Instagram, we have got phone numbers all around.
09:05 You can just reach out to us anywhere, sign up. We are open through the year.
09:09 We have got programs for anyone whether you are starting off or you are a professional.
09:13 Or you just want to ride around on motorcycles or on trails, we have got a program for you.
09:16 So just reach out to us and watch the 8 days of Motorcycle Racing coming up soon.
09:21 Oh wow, that's great news. And one more thing, what's the age category?
09:25 So which age, I mean Bikrak?
09:28 At Bikrak, it's very clear that our youngest customer is 8 years old and our oldest customer is around 72.
09:34 So anybody can come and ride with us.
09:37 So right from 8 years old guys, you can come in.
09:41 So until you have the energy and the motivation and confidence, you can jump into Bikrak.
09:46 We have one of the partners with us, we can say he is an investor.
09:55 And he is also an automotive enthusiast.
09:58 And he has a son, so what do you think about him?
10:01 Sir, your name please. My name is Uday.
10:03 And...
10:04 And sir, hi, thank you for Bikrak.
10:06 Oh, nice meeting you.
10:08 So now we have our lovely bikes over here.
10:11 Before that, just tell me about you in the big part. What's your part?
10:14 Okay, okay. Mainly in motorcycle enthusiasts.
10:17 I've been riding bikes for a very long time.
10:20 And I also had a break in riding for a long time.
10:24 And I think in 2018, I met Santosh to get some training from Santosh.
10:29 That's how I met Santosh.
10:31 And one thing led to another where Santosh and me wanted to grow the sport.
10:35 And Santosh was very keen to grow the sport for a lot of riders.
10:39 He was lucky to go and race in Dakar and other things.
10:42 But for Santosh, he also wanted to grow the sport like how Gopichand has done.
10:47 And that's how we came together and we decided to form a company.
10:51 And from there, we started with some very basic training for customers.
10:54 And then things have gone from there.
10:57 We have five formats of riding in our thing.
10:59 We have five full-fledged trainers.
11:01 We have customers where we do programs for corporate customers.
11:05 Large adventure programs.
11:06 And we also do retail customers and other people who want to come and run basic as well as professional riding.
11:14 Now, I heard that you have bought eight bikes from Kawasaki from Japan.
11:18 So, what is the motive?
11:20 I mean, you as an investor in a business aspect, what is your aspect?
11:25 So, the eight bikes is something which the people who have framed the league.
11:30 The C8 Supercross League has got four different classes of races.
11:35 It has got two foreign categories and two Indian categories.
11:38 And we will run two riders in each category, which is the norm in any motorsport.
11:42 We have two riders in each team so that even if one bike breaks down or a rider has an injury,
11:46 you have another bike running in the championship.
11:49 So, that's the reason behind the eight bikes, which is common for all the franchise owners.
11:53 So, you will have two riders from each team competing for the championship across three races this year.
11:59 Hopefully, this will grow to a higher number of races in the coming year.
12:03 So, as an investor, what's your future focus?
12:06 I mean, more than that, Big Rock is here in the long term.
12:12 What we want to see is being an enabler for people who want to pursue motorsports.
12:16 Santosh was, of course, he went through a whole lot of challenges for him to get to the world stage.
12:23 We want to see how we can make it easy for aspiring riders to have a career in motorsports.
12:28 In this form of riding, and hopefully we'll probably get into other forms as well.
12:33 Because our goal is to be exactly what, say, a badminton academy or a cricket academy is.
12:40 To continue to give chance for aspiring riders to compete in sport and then go to the global level.
12:46 That's the whole idea.
12:47 So, any upcoming brands you're tying up with Big Rock?
12:51 We don't know yet, but we're hoping that…
12:53 There are a lot of people who are keen, I'm sure. As it is, we have a lot of brands who work with us.
12:59 Because we are probably one of the most organized and we are a proper company as such.
13:04 We pay our taxes, we are compliant in a whole lot of ways.
13:08 And that's how Big Rock is different from anybody. There's nobody like Big Rock.
13:12 So, we're hoping that a lot of companies will come and support us in growing the sport.
13:15 So guys, if you have talent and you can ride in Big Rock,
13:22 if you train in Big Rock and develop your skills to the level of being able to cross the international level,
13:29 if you become that talented, they will invest you and they will take you to that.
13:33 They are doing it in our Big Rock to achieve your dream.
13:37 So, if you grab this opportunity, the only thing is like, you have to follow Big Rock.
13:44 And, you know, thanks for inviting us, sir. Thank you.
13:46 Thank you very much.
13:47 Bye.
13:48 Thank you.
13:49 Thank you.
