Rajkot’s Dhoraji witnessed a supreme sample of craftsman. By using intelligence and sheer hard work, battery and radiator repairman has successfully created a motorcycle from bicycle that runs and offers the same features as any other motorcycle. A man named Idrishbhai Meenya, a craftsman living in Dhoraji and working as a radiator and battery repairman, has made a motorcycle out of a bicycle with his wits and ingenuity which has become cheaper than other motorcycles and offers the same facilities as other motorcycles in terms of average and features. He says, “Nowadays, if someone buys a new normal motorcycle, it costs from one lakh to two and a half lakhs. A person from a normal and poor family cannot buy a motorcycle, so I have made a motorcycle from the bicycle to make it affordable for the poor and middle class.”
