Suzuki Motorcycles stall is located in hall number 7 and is located right next to the entrance opposite HMSI’s stall.
First thing that strikes you after paying a close attention to their stall is the fact that they have not displayed any new motorcycles. Though Suzuki is expected to launch few of the Superbikes kept at the stall, later this year. As far as the general motorcycles and scooters go, there is nothing there apart from Suzuki Heat, Zeus and Access 125.
