I would certainly prefer a motorcycle to a bus at any time @And12-X2 so much more fun and lots of freedom. Of course the only downside is all the car people trying their best to take you out.

Motorcycle is my mode of transport (even before COVID-19) and is the most common right now. People have started moving back to bus, as other modes are expensive, but a huge percent will still continue with personal transport.
On the other hand, used car market is hot. Budget cars are all sold out.

@PaulPavlinovich here the bikes are new and a lot of people are very much interested in the new mode of transportation
That is quite interesting @DilipC @And12-X2 bikes are great, are people riding with helmet and safety gear there?

Helmet is mandatory per rule, but still many are reluctant to wear them. Post-COVID cops are stricter on that and fine amounts hiked and now 95% or more in city wears them. Towards outskirts there are still lidless idiots. Riding gear is quite uncommon in India. They are cop magnets and often labelled as racers.

Having been in Indian traffic @DilipC I guess most of the time you’re going fairly slowly so proper leathers may not be as necessary as here where we achieve high speeds.
I sold my bike last year, but the gear I wore just looked like jeans and a hoodie but they had a layer of kevlar inside them :).

All the drivers are like; “get you out of my way!” @And12-X2
