The upcoming Bajaj-Triumph motorcycle will be placed in the 250-500cc segment. Currently, Royal Enfield is the most popular in this segment.
As we know, Bajaj and Triumph are entering into a partnership to develop a mid-capacity motorcycle, especially for the Indian and other Asian markets. Triumph is popular for bikes having engines of over 750cc.
Speculations say that the first Bajaj-Triumph motorcycle will debut the Indian market by 2021. The launch has been delayed because of Bajaj gearing up for launching electric scooters and Husqvarna bikes in India.

This way, the British connection as well as low costs will be maintained. Triumph will manage the research, development, design and quality of the bike itself. With its extensive vendor base and cost-cutting abilities, Bajaj will further take over it.

The Bajaj-Triumph motorcycle plans to enter this segment and take on the likes of Royal Enfield. Recently, Jawa Motorcycles also followed this process and launched 2 new 300cc roadsters.
