Here's a list of the top upcoming bikes in India this year.

Royal Enfield Classic 350 (new-gen):

There is an all-new Classic 350 on the way which will likely be the first launch from the Chennai-based two-wheeler maker for 2021. The new-gen model has been spotted getting tested on the public roads several times in the past and is expected to break cover in the first quarter this year.

The Honda CBR650R is due for an update in the Indian market. The new model will arrive in the country by mid-2021. It will come with a BS 6-compliant powertrain and several new updates. For the record, the updated model has already broken cover for the international markets in late-2020.

Royal Enfield 650 Twins (update):

Royal Enfield will introduce the 650 Twins (Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650) with minor updates for 2021. Both the bikes are expected to receive the company's new Tripper turn-by-turn navigation as well as new paint schemes.
