The police tracked him down with the help of CCTV footage and call records.
Kiran allegedly walked into a showroom in Hyderabad's upscale Banjara Hills and filled a form before taking a bike for a "test drive".
Police said every detail, including the name that he had put on the form was fake.
A Harley Davidson Street 750, the bike that Kiran had taken away has the Rs. 4.32 lakh price tag. It is the cheapest in the stable.
