Cutting her teeth on wire stories and motorcycle magazines, Riya earned her rep on speed and accuracy. She decodes OEM drop-dates, legal recalls, and track rumors with street-smart clarity. When the press light’s off, she’s vetting specs and scouting test rides for the next big scoop.
Riya runs the 24/7 update line: on-scene crash dispatches, urgent recall flashes, launch-day walkthroughs, and race-day split-second calls. From silent e-bike rollouts to MotoGP shakeups, she wires it out hot. Riders follow her updates not just to stay informed, but to stay prepared.
Riya likes bikes that ride easy but punch hard. Her favourite is the Honda Rebel 300, which has a low seat and chilled posture. It’s the cruiser that helped her master clutch finesse. For a bit more edge, she rides the Kawasaki Z400, which is nimble as a fox, light on the bars, and surprisingly fierce in the mid-range.
