Top 5 Sporty Bikes Under Rs 2 Lakh With Dual-channel ABS – For College Students With Dual-Channel ABS

College is about to begin, and we are sure you are thinking about getting a relatively affordable bike with good power. But remember what Uncle Ben said – With great power comes great responsibility. It’s highly advisable that you also think about getting a bike with dual-channel ABS. Here are some you can consider: 

TVS Apache RTR 160 2V

Price: Rs 1,21,420 to Rs 1,34,320 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

TVS Apache RTR 160 2V

The baby Apache was recently updated by TVS, and now its top variant comes with dual-channel ABS. While the TVS Apache RTR 160 2V is a great sporty commuter for college students, it is now also much safer. With some awesome looks, decent fuel efficiency, enough features and a punchy performance, this Apache makes for a great beginner bike for college-going students while being frugal. 

Bajaj Pulsar NS200

Price: Rs 1,51,725 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Bajaj Pulsar NS200

The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 is one of the most popular naked sports bikes in the 200cc segment in India. It has fun and agile handling characteristics, a well-tuned suspension, and an engine which packs a great punch. This makes the NS200 a great bang-for-your-buck motorcycle. Being a Bajaj, the Pulsar’s spare parts are a lot more affordable than its rivals, which makes it an easy bike to recommend to new riders looking for a fun streetfighter. 

Yamaha MT-15

Price: Rs 1,69,550 to Rs 1,74,250 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Yamaha MT-15

For those students who want an affordable, bulletproof Japanese streetfighter, the Yamaha MT-15 is a no-brainer. It has the same engine as the Yamaha R15 but in a different state of tune, nimble handling, and a decent list of features. It also has good fuel efficiency. It looks quite aggressive, which makes it stand apart. A sleek headlight, muscular tank and available in a lot of colour options give the customer a lot of options to choose from. 

Hero Xtreme 250R

Price: Rs 1,79,900 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Hero Xtreme 250R

The Hero Xtreme 250R is the newest kid on this list, but it packs in a serious punch for its price. It is the most affordable 250cc bike in India, but that’s not even the best part! The Xtreme is an all-rounder motorcycle – it’s calm in the city and capable enough on the twisties and highways. While it may seem quite powerful on paper, the Hero lends a helping hand and isn’t as intimidating as it looks. 

Triumph Speed T4

Triumph Speed T4

Price: From Rs 1,98,990 up to Rs 2,03,120 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

If you have a good budget, the Triumph Speed T4 is definitely worth taking a look. The bike’s fit and finish levels are above any bike in its segment. With the same chassis as the Speed 400, the T4 is stable while cornering and on highways. The torquey and smooth engine, comfortable riding posture, and tons of colours means the Triumph will not only catch a lot of attention but will also be a great companion for your daily college commutes.   

Honourable Mention - Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z

Price: 1,92,328 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z

If you have been riding entry-level motorcycles for some time, the Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z is an easy-to-recommend upgrade. It is also the most affordable 40PS motorcycle you can get your hands on in India. Sure, it won't be as frugal as compared to the other motorcycles in this list in terms of fuel efficiency, but it will surely be a fun motorcycle. With the upcoming update to the motorcycle, the bike is going to get a bit more powerful, have sticker tyres and better brakes, the Pulsar NS400Z will still be a great value-for-money motorcycle.
