Two-wheelers are usually classified in 3 types Scooters, Motorcycle and Mopeds. A look at the post independence era that the Two-wheeler industry has witnessed three distinct phases of growth. BRIEF HISTORY Phase – l (1947 to 1984): -The Indian Two-Wheeler structure was quite monopolistic during the first 37 years since independence when volumes grew at a slow pace. Bajaj auto had an undisputed leadership oven the market, which was a major player in the industry consumer, had to literally wait for years before acquiring a Bajaj vehicle. The industry registered a compounded growth rate of 12% during the seventies. Phase – ll (1984 to 1994): -The second phase began in the mid eighties when the scooter was partially deregulated. This phase saw Japanese companies typing up with SRI GOKULA COLLEGE OF BUSINESS MANAGEMENT KOLAR Page 1 ACTIVE HONDA domestic players and newer models were introduced in specific segments. Even through the demand was apparently strong for scooter, most of the Japanese ventures like Kawasaki Bajaj, hero Honda, TVS Suzuki opted to produce motor cycle except for Kinetic Honda which choose to manufacture scooter. The annual growth rate for the two-wheeler industry during the phase stood at 16.40% this phase extended till the early nineties and there was a succession during the last part of this phase i.e. 1992-1993. The production of scooter fell by a step 16% in 1992-92.and by 8% the following years. Phase – lll (1994 to … … ): - This phase began in 1994 when sales started accelerating. The market saw a step increase in the demand. In 1995, the industry produced about one million scooters, 6 lakhs motorcycle and 5 lakhs mopeds.

By the Euro norms, pollution control will become very stringent and only those manufacturers will survive, who have very strong R & D for quality control. All vehicles will have to meet these norms. This is very important for the motorcycle industry. These days, motorcycles are not just for the Indian market. Indian bikes are now being manufactured by keeping in mind both international standard and the world market. Motorcycles today have become a vehicle for the middle class and upper middle class. Quality will sell and good product will run, come, what may. Gone are the days when we could expect a customer to walk in. Today the trust is on the concept of selling the vehicle, which includes marketing, advertising and after sales service. The Euro ll norms will have to be followed strictly. In order to meet the Y2K pollution norms (Euro-ll) all the other motorcycle manufactures have to adopt either SRI GOKULA COLLEGE OF BUSINESS MANAGEMENT KOLAR Page 3 ACTIVE HONDA four-stroke technology on catalytic converter fitted in their existing two-stroke motorcycle.

It seems like a simple question .But the answer is a bit complicated. Just as the automobile was the answer to the 19th century dream of self-propelling the horse drawn carriage, the invention of motorcycle was creation of self-propelled bicycle. The person credited with building the first motorcycle in 1885 was Gottliet Daimler (who later teamed up with Karl Benz to form She Daimler Bens corp.) The gasoline runs vehicle had one wheel in the front and at the back (rear) with a smaller, spring-loaded outrigger wheel on each side. The motorcycle was constructed of wood, with the wheel cast out of iron and spokes of kandeel wood. Definitely it was a “bone-crusher” chassis. Hiberland & Munich planned the first successful two-wheeler in 1894. It had a step through frame, with its fuel tank mounted on the down lube. The engine was a parallel twin, mounted low on frame with its cylinder going to the fore. In 1916 the Indian Motorcycle Company introduced first Motorcycle model H racer, and placed it on sale at the astronomical price of $350.It featured overhead value with valves per cylinder, and was easily capable of speeds of 120 mph during World War II . All branches of the armed force in Europe used motorcycles principally for dispatching. After the war it enjoyed a sport vogue until the great depression of 1929.
