Bhubaneswar: Images of Chief Justice of India Sharad Arvind Bobde trying a Harley Davidson superbike in his home town Nagpur has kept the social media abuzz since yesterday.
The 64-year-old Chief Justice is known to have a fascination for bikes and had even told during an interview to the media before his appointment as CJI that he loved bikes and had once owned a Bullet motorcycle.

In the photographs that went viral on Twitter on Sunday, he is seen on a Harley Davidson CVO 2020.
While many have complimented the CJI over the photograph, several have pointed fingers over him not wearing a helmet and even a face mask, both being statutory requirements.
