Top trending bike in India

The Suzuki Gixxer SF is the full-faired variant of the Suzuki Gixxer range. The engine offers good performance and refinement, the suspension offers a comfortable ride and stability, and there's enough mid-range grunt from the engine with decent fuel economy as well. In all, the Suzuki Gixxer SF offers a very good choice for anyone looking for a well-rounded 150-160 cc motorcycle with big bike looks.

The Honda Livo 110 is yet another 110 cc commuter motorcycle from Honda and while it is a decent bike, it is getting a little long in the tooth and has old design. It has a slightly stiff ride, which may not be likeable to all. The motorcycle hasn't been updated in a while and lacks modern features that are available on other rivals models. The Livo 110 continues to bring in decent volumes for Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India, from rural and semi-urban areas.

Based on Yamaha's MT-15, the XSR155 is a retro-styled naked street bike.? The motorcycle was first unveiled in the international market and since then has created quite a buzz in the Indian two-wheeler market. The main highlight of the XSR155 is its retro-inspired design comprising a circular LED headlight flanked by a round meter housing. Even the tail lamp is finished in a circular design. The XSR155 takes inspiration from Yamaha’s 'Sport Heritage' design language which is present on other bikes like the XSR 700 and XSR 900, that are available in international markets.

As the name suggests, the XSR155 will be powered by the same 155-cc engine that does duty on the MT-15 and YZF-R15. The motor is rated to produce 19 bhp and 14.7 Nm of torque and is paired with a six-speed gearbox. The bike will feature a twin-spar frame, with USDs and a mono-shock at the rear. Braking will be handled by disc brakes at both ends.

The KTM RC 125 makes a very strong case as an entry-level sport bike. It's got the looks to make heads turn, great dynamics to make a young adult get comfortable with a sport bike. It excels in its styling, easy accessibility and, unintimidating performance, making it the perfect companion to make a statement in college. And after about a year's ownership of the RC 125, you could think of graduating to something with more performance, perhaps the KTM RC 200 or even the KTM RC 390.

The BMW S 1000 R offers a fast, performance-oriented litre-class naked that offers everything expected from a sports bike in this segment. The S 1000 R offers the best of both worlds, to be used as an everyday, performance-oriented street bike, and could very well double up as an entertaining package for the track. It has very capable and worthy rivals like the Ducati Streetfighter V4 and the Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS.

The RTR 160 retains its good handling prowess and it absolutely loves being thrown around the corners at the test track. The grip from the TVS Remora radial tyres is commendable too and the bike felt sure-footed when negotiating the corners. Overall, it may not feature ground-breaking changes, but with the new headlamp and the BS6 engine, the desirability quotient does go up by a couple of notches.

Kawasaki Z900 ups the naked game with a smooth, lively, engine, beautiful handling and great all-round road manners. Yes, there are no electronic rider aids to speak of, and the lack of a windscreen or fairing will have the wind blast get to you, long before you start exploring the bike's top end performance, or touring potential, if you're so inclined. It isn't perfect, but it's easy to use in traffic, and has enough performance to delight you every time you take it out for a spin.

The Kawasaki ZX-10R is a potent litre-class superbike that is renowned the world over. With over 200 bhp on tap, the Ninja ZX-10R also has a chassis which gives it shapr and precise handling. If it's the pinnacle of performance and dynamics one is looking for, the ZX-10R is easily right up there with the very best production superbikes available on sale.
