Here are your top four options in two-wheelers costing less than 4 lakhs: Read here
TVS Apache RTR 200 4V
Pre-load adjustable front suspension, adjustable rear suspension, ride modes, Glide Through Traffic, lap timer and adjustable levers. This sums up the new TVS Apache RTR 200 4V. This is something which even your Rs 10 lakh Kawasaki or Honda will not offer. The Apache RTR may not be the most powerful bike here but definitely it trumps the others in terms of features. The Rs 1.32 lakh price tag also happens to be one of the lowest here.
TVS Apache RR310
The TVS Apache RR310 is the best-looking India-made bike. It not only looks a million bucks but also has a plethora of features. As far as the latter is concerned, there is GTT, ride modes, Bluetooth connectivity, and what not. An update is coming soon and this will bring in additional features – those from the RTR200 – to be precise. At the current price of Rs 2.49 lakh, this bike is a steal.
Honda H’ness CB350
The Honda H’ness CB350 is a surprise entrant in this list. On paper and especially in this list, the Honda H’ness CB350 has something like traction control and at a price below Rs 2 lakh. At the same time, Honda also offers a Bluetooth-connected helmet voice control. That the motorcycle is generally nice to ride is a bonus.
KTM 390 Adventure
The KTM 390 Adventure brings in ride-by-wire, cornering ABS, traction control, dual-channel ABS, bi-directional quickshifter, knuckle guards and what not. One can also limit the rpm redline. The KTM 390 Adventure again is something that is the most powerful bike you will find in this mix. At slightly over Rs three lakh, this motorcycle too represents great value when it comes to the power as well as features on offer.
