Demand for 150cc to 200cc motorcycles in India's two-wheeler market keeps climbing, and the June 2026 sales numbers make that clear.

A big jump for the whole segment
The 150cc-200cc segment sold a combined 1,77,866 units in June 2026, up sharply from 1,34,491 units in the same month a year earlier. That works out to a 32.25 percent year-on-year jump, a sign that demand for mid-capacity sporty and commuter motorcycles is picking up pace across the country. Here is a model-wise breakdown of how each bike performed last month.

TVS Apache stays on top
TVS Apache emerged as the segment's top seller once again, moving 55,382 units in June 2026 compared with 41,386 units a year earlier. That is a 33.82 percent year-on-year rise, the highest unit sales figure among all the motorcycles on this list.

Bajaj Pulsar in second place
Bajaj Pulsar came in second with 40,730 units sold last month, up from 33,610 units in the same period a year ago. That marks a 21.18 percent year-on-year increase in sales.

Honda Unicorn takes third spot
Honda Unicorn ranked third with 37,617 units sold last month, against 26,363 units a year earlier. That is a 42.69 percent year-on-year jump, the fastest growth rate among the top three bikes.

What this means for you
If you are shopping for a bike in this segment, these numbers are worth knowing.

• High-demand models like TVS Apache, Bajaj Pulsar and Honda Unicorn could see longer delivery waiting periods at dealerships as stock gets stretched.
• Strong-selling bikes tend to hold better resale value in the used-bike market, which works in favour of existing owners.
• The dip in Yamaha FZ sales could push the company to roll out discounts or a new variant to win back buyers.
