Most Stylish Bikes In India Across All Budgets: These Will Make You Stand Out!

Picture this: It’s a lazy Monday morning, everyone in your office’s parking lot is dragging themselves out of their cars and bikes and slowly making their way up to the office. And in the middle of all of this, everyone’s Monday blues are blown away because you ride in on an eye candy of a machine. None of them can take their eyes off the bike you’re riding. You slowly park your bike and walk out of it feeling like a Bollywood hero. Like the sound of that? If yes, reading this article is a must for you because we’ve listed 5 of the most stylish bikes in India across various budgets: 

Under Rs 1 lakh - TVS Raider 

The TVS Raider is a rad-looking bike and it made us realise that 125cc bikes can also be radically designed and a lot of fun to ride. When it was first launched, the Raider did feel a bit polarising but in the past couple of years, it has really grown on us a lot. The proportions are perfect, the bug-eyed headlight makes it look aggressive and the yellow colourway gives it a Bumblebee vibe; it’s something we all love. In fact, even after seeing the bike so many times, we turn our heads each time a Raider passes us in the city. 

The finish levels are great too and along with the looks, the Raider also packs a ton of features. So if bragging about its looks wasn’t enough, you’ve plenty of features to boast about too. The best part is that it goes just as well as it looks, meaning you’ll be turning heads and whizzing past traffic in the city.

Under Rs 2 lakh - Yamaha R15 V4

The Yamaha R15 V4 HAD to be on this list, of course. When the first generation came out, it was an absolute eye candy and there was nothing quite like it. And guess what, some 17 years later, there’s still nothing quite like it, at least in its segment. The R15 V4 could easily pass off as a 400-500cc bike with its perfect proportions and big bike feel. The design is that of a typical sportsbike and some of the colours that Yamaha offers are just brilliant and make an already good looking bike stand out even more. As uncomfortable as its riding posture can be, the R15 V4 will definitely make you look and feel like a local racer. And once you feel like you’ve outgrown the R15, don’t sell it. Pack it up and put it in your living room for it’d make for a brilliant showpiece. 

Under Rs 3 lakh - TVS Apache RR 310

Talking about outgrowing the Yamaha R15 V4, a nice next step could be the TVS Apache RR 310. The RR 310 was a splendid looking bike when it was first launched and in our opinion, it’s still the best looking made-in-India sportbike. It’s sharp and sporty as a sportbike should be but it’s not all sharp edges, for the bike still has just the right amount of curves. In its latest generation, the bike has winglets and even a transparent clutch cover, both of which make you feel like you’re riding a much bigger bike.. In short, get on the RR 310, strap your helmet on, ride around town and you’ll surely feel like all eyes are on you. 

Under Rs 5 lakh - Royal Enfield Continental GT 650

We said the RR 310 was the best looking made-in-India ‘sportbike’ for a reason. And that’s because in terms of pure looks, there’s nothing that beats the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650’s old school charm. Sportbikes look incredible, for sure, but they still can’t beat just how good a proportional cafe racer can look. And that cafe racer is the GT 650. The bike doesn’t have a lot of panels and the overall naked, simplistic appeal is what makes the bike’s design timeless. The GT 650 was beautiful to look at when it was first launched, still is (despite barely any aesthetic changes) and we’re sure that it’ll continue to be a looker for years to come. In fact, get a GT 650 right now and 10-15 years down the lane, its looks, the engine noise, the way it goes…all of it might be your gateway to the nostalgic, happy memories when most bikes around you might be EVs.  

No budget - Ducati Panigale V4 

Without budget as a constraint, the Ducati Panigale V4 is the most gorgeous bike on sale in India and honestly there’s no contesting that. Even among other Ducatis, it seems like the brand reserved some special sauce while making the Panigale V4 for it looks ultra special and exotic. There’s a reason why almost every one of us in the BikeDekho office has a Panigale V4….scale model. 

In its latest generation the bike has two winglets flanking the headlight and while it might look a bit awkward for other brands, on the Panigale these 2 look like the fangs of an angry, aggressive wolf. The way the muscular tank is shaped, its beefy middle proportions and then the lean rear end with that high pillion seat, the Panigale V4 ticks all the sportbike boxes and ticks them to the T. If the other bikes on the list make you feel like a Bollywood hero, the Panigale V4 will surely make you feel like a MotoGP racer. Ride into the office parking lot on this beast with the loud exhaust booming in the background and you’ll be the talk of the town for sure.
