Budget-Friendly Rides: Top 5 Scooters Under Rs 80,000

Bajaj has launched the Freedom 125 in India at a starting price of Rs 95,000. It is the world's first CNG bike, and many customers might worry about the safety of having a CNG tank on a bike. Every year, many CNG cars fail, and bikes are more exposed than cars. Bajaj assures that the bike has been thoroughly tested for safety. The manufacturer says the bike has passed 11 different crash and impact tests at their test facility.How Bajaj Tested the New Freedom 125 CNG Bike Bajaj tested the bike from different angles. In the Front Collision Test, the Freedom 125 CNG bike crashed into a 1.5-ton moving barrier at a speed of 60kmph. Moreover, the company also did a Truck Runover Test, where a 10-ton truck was driven over the CNG bike. This test simulates a situation where the rider falls off and the bike gets run over by a truck. In both the Front Collision Test and the Truck Runover Test, the bike handled the impacts well. The CNG tank stayed in place, kept its shape, and did not leak.Bajaj also performed nine other tests: a Frontal Pendulum Test, a Rear Impact Test, a Left Side Impact Test, a Right Side Impact Test, a Vertical Drop Test, a 50kg Filling Unit Strength Test, two types of CNG Valve Impact Tests (to see if the valve breaks on impact), and a 20G Pull Out Test. Impact tests involved hitting the bike with a moving barrier, while drop tests involved dropping the bike from a height.What is Bajaj Providing in Freedom 125 CNG Bike?Bajaj designed the trellis frame and subframe to keep the CNG cylinder safe. These frames act like cages to protect the cylinder from damage in a crash. The engine is also placed away from the CNG cylinder, so the heat from the engine doesn’t affect the CNG tank. This is important because the CNG tank holds pressurized gas, which can expand when it gets hot.When filling the CNG tank, you need to get off the bike and stand at least 5 feet away. This safety measure at CNG fuel stations helps prevent accidents in case the CNG cylinder explodes.Before you go, don’t forget to check out the June 2024 FADA two-wheeler sales report. Follow us for the Latest Bike Industry UpdatesFacebook - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_offl_fb                 Instagram -  https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_insta                 Twitter - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_twitter

The Bajaj Freedom has a powerful engine that supplies reliable strength for everyday commutes and long drives. Its design focuses on consolation and practicality, presenting spacious seating and durable construction. Moreover, the modern features, which include electric powered begin and advanced braking systems, make a secure and snug riding experience. This launch highlights Bajaj’s dedication to providing high-quality bikes at affordable prices in the Indian market.   Highlights:-First CNG motorcycle in the market- 125cc Engine Capacity- 2kg CNG tank   The Bajaj Freedom has been launched in India with a starting price of ₹95,000.

However, all prices are ex-showroom.   Unique Design and Advanced FeaturesThe Bajaj Freedom has a 2kg CNG tank well-placed in the middle of the bike, which ensures good weight distribution.

Riders can seamlessly switch between the two fuels with a change. Notably, the bike has a filler cap that holds both CNG and petrol, making it easier to refuel.   The bike is powered by a 125cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine that produces 9.5bhp at 8,000rpm and 9.7Nm at 6,000rpm. The engine is linked to a five-speed gearbox.    Moreover, emphasising design over function rather than form, the Bajaj Freedom clearly stands out from other commuter motorcycles. The top two variants feature LED headlights, a fuel tank made from a dirt bike, an impressively tall seat that Bajaj claims is the longest in the segment and a well-designed tail section that many who want a different look will appreciate. Additionally, the bike gets digital instrument clusters with Bluetooth connectivity, adding a modern touch to its range.   Under this body, the Bajaj Freedom features a tubular grille frame supported by a telescopic fork and a linked monoshock. It rolls on 17-inch wheels and is equipped with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes for efficient braking.

Suzuki has officially unveiled the 2025 DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM on international markets. Both motorcycles have been totally redesigned for the 2025 model year, with a new engine and updated underpinnings. Moreover, these two motorcycles would be equipped with a new 398cc, single-cylinder engine that has a Euro 5+ norm. The unit is able to churn out 38bhp, and its peak torque is rated at 37Nm. The new engine is mated to a five-speed gearbox. Furthermore, the Suzuki DR-Z4S will compete with the similar KTM 390 Enduro R, while the DR-Z4SM will compete with the KTM 390 SMC R in overseas markets. Key Differences Between the Suzuki DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM: Design, Suspension, and Features ExplainedThese two bikes not only fall into different categories but also differ at many levels, like the size of wheels and suspension travel, along with features. Both have the same engine within a newly designed twin-spar frame that has been complemented by an aluminium subframe. KYB upside-down forks are fitted on the front side of both models, providing adjustability for rebound and compression. At the rear, both the bikes have an adjustable monoshock. The Suzuki DR-Z4S is equipped with 21/18-inch wire-spoke wheels shod with dual-purpose tyres. Remaining true to its enduro body, it boasts a plush suspension travel of 280mm at the front and 296mm at the rear, giving it a relatively tall seat height of 920mm. Electronics-wise, it employs a ride-by-wire throttle with three selectable engine maps, adjustable traction control, and dual-channel ABS, which can be turned off on both wheels. Meanwhile, the Suzuki DR-Z4SM is a supermoto, having 17-inch wire-spoke wheels with grippier, road-biased tires. Typical for a supermoto, it has shorter suspension travel: 260mm at the front and 277mm at the rear. The SM model has a lower seat height of 890mm compared to the DR-Z4S, making it more accessible to the rider. While it shares the same electronics as the DR-Z4S, the DR-Z4SM allows the ABS to be deactivated only at the rear wheel. These Suzuki DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM motorcycles are exclusively designed for international markets. Bikes in the dual-sport and supermoto categories have a huge market and even a Suzuki fanbase. However, Suzuki's possibility of bringing these models to India is almost negligible.Before you go, have a look at the Weekly bike news update: Royal Enfield Bear 650, KTM 390 Adventure R, and other highlights.Follow us for the Latest Bike Industry UpdatesFacebook - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_offl_fb   Instagram-  https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_insta   Twitter - https://bit.ly/BikeJunction_ofl_twitter
