Two Wheelers News

Approximately 1,400 bikes are reported to have been affected by problems with the oil pump drive on BMW F 750 GS and BMW F 850 GS bikes. So far, there's no news of any of the bikes sold in India as being affected by the issue.

Bajaj Auto has announced that its motorcycles will see a hike of about Rs. 3000 to Rs. 8000 in the on-road prices, starting from September 1, 2018. The hike comes in lieu of the decision to make third party insurance cover mandatory up to five years on new two-wheelers by insurance regulator IRDAI. Not only Bajaj Auto, but the ruling affects all manufacturers and prices will increase two-wheelers by a substantial margin. New passenger cars will also come with a mandatory insurance cover of three years, as per the ruling.

The KTM 1090 Adventure has not been updated in a while and the Austrian company has now started testing the updated prototype.

The 500 cc range will get ABS first, followed by the Himalayan. The entire Royal Enfield line-up could get ABS before 2019.
