Concept motor bike: Open challenge to bike makers in India


What forces an above avg salaried man to pick RE motor cycles?

Is it the brand name alone? not really, in my opinion. Its the style, comfort, power along with the brand name.

If you look at the RE riders, you can see one thing in common, they are using it as a commuter. In fact company transformed Bullet to a commutator bike to gain footprint in emerging market.

Am I satisfied with new RE machines? am NOT. So what do I need? what is my dream machine look like?

Who am I?
I am a professional who commutes ~20 to 30 km a day in motor bike in heavy traffic in Indian cities!

What do I need?
A stylish commuter cum cruiser which I can use daily to office and for weekend long drives.

Details of my dream machine:

  • Engine : 180-200 cc 
  • Style: Cruiser-Commuter (no sporty seating please!)
  • Fuel tank: Big and above seat height (it can store more fuel and its more appealing)
  • Good suspension systems

  • Weight: 150-200 kg
  • Ground clearance : 165 mm+
  • Alloy wheels
  • Tubeless tyres
