Two-wheelers are the most popular type of transportation among Indians and are an easy way to travel around the country. Everybody in India searches for affordable bikes, and no matter what they get, Indians seek to get the most for their money. However, people would want their possessions to be of the highest quality while they are spending roughly 2 lakh rupees. Here are the 6 best bikes under 2 lakh available in India.

List of best bikes under 2 lakh

Yamaha FZ25

With the release of the FZ25, Yamaha finally introduced a motorcycle with a quarter-liter engine. The bike is pretty attractive to look at and has a sleek, powerful stance. The 249cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled motor that powers the Yamaha is refined and has linear power delivery, while it isn't exactly a model of power and performance. 

The bike's 148 kg weight places it among the lighter models in its class, which allows quick acceleration. Although it is not the finest in its class, this bike handles well. Although this bike lacks ABS, it does include an LED headlight and an all LCD instrument panel. This is one of the top best bikes under 2 lakh.

Bajaj Dominar 400

The Dominar is the first power cruiser made in India and one of the best bikes under 2 lakh. This motorcycle resembles the younger sibling of the Ducati Diavel thanks to its low-slung, muscular appearance. Bajaj installed the hazard lights on the gasoline tank in a secondary instrument dashboard rather than around the primary instrument panel, which is entirely digital, giving this bike some intriguing design aspects. 

The bike's powerful engine matches its muscular appearance. The KTM 390's 373cc engine was the inspiration for the motor's design. It does, however, fall a little short of the KTM's peak performance. However, this engine has been specifically tuned for bottom-end performance, resulting in enhanced fuel efficiency and a staggering 28Nm (of the total 35Nm) of torque at just 3,000 rpm.

KTM Duke 250

With a top speed of 138 kmph, the KTM Duke 250 naked streetfighter takes the third spot on the list of best bikes under 2 lakh. A 248.8cc engine paired to a six-speed transmission system powers the motorbike. The engine is capable of producing 29.5 horsepower and 24 Nm of torque, respectively. The KTM Duke 250 costs Rs 1.78 lakh and is sold by the company's dealerships all over India.

Yamaha YZF-R15 V4

Another classic on this list is the Yamaha R15 V4. The YZF R1 in the liter-class served as the primary inspiration for the completely faired R15 V4. It has a 155cc engine that generates 14.2 Nm of torque at 7500 rpm and 18.14 horsepower at 10,000 rpm. A traction control system, quickshifter, USD, dual-channel ABS, and Bluetooth connectivity are now included in the bike's latest form.However, especially for pillions, it isn't the most comfortable kind of city transportation.

Royal Enfield Himalayan

This bike launched the affordable adventure cruising segment in India, when the bike manufacturer launched it during the Auto Expo. This motorcycle has a huge 220mm ground clearance and plenty of suspension travel (200mm up front and 180mm rear). It is designed to be used off-road. Despite having a huge ground clearance, the seat height is kept at a manageable 800mm. 

The vehicle has a big 21-inch front wheel and a 17-inch rear wheel with off-road tires. The bike also includes mounts for saddlebags at the back and a particularly comfortable seating position because it is a touring bike. This one is another best bikes under 2 lakh in India.
