Both the Avantura Rudra and Pravega have been designed and conceptualised in the US, while production takes place in India with all the components imported and assembled in the country. The bikes use the massive 2000 cc V-Twin V124 engine sourced from S&S Cycle. The motor is paired with a 6-speed transmission that comes from Rivera, while Progressive provides the suspension set-up. The brakes are sourced from French manufacturer Beringer and the seat is designed and sourced from the US-based company called Mustang. With a kerb weight of 344 kg on the Rudra, and 347 kg on the Pravega, these choppers are no lean machines to handle by any standards.
