The on-road price of {{bike}} in {{city}}, {{state}} is {{on_road}}. This is the amount you'll actually pay at the dealership - it's higher than the ex-showroom figure you see advertised because it includes mandatory government and insurance charges.

Here's exactly how that {{on_road}} breaks down:

**Ex-Showroom Price: {{ex_showroom}}**
This is the base price of the {{bike}} in {{city}}, set by {{brand}} and consistent across authorised dealers in {{state}}. It includes the cost of the motorcycle, GST, and dealer margin.

**Road Tax (RTO): {{rto}}**
Road tax in {{state}} is charged at {{rto_percent}} of the ex-showroom price. This is a one-time payment made to the Regional Transport Office when you register the bike. RTO rates vary by state - {{state}} riders pay {{rto_percent}}, which explains why on-road prices for the same bike differ across cities.

**Insurance: {{insurance_total}}**
All new bikes in India require mandatory third-party (TP) insurance of {{tp_insurance}} plus own-damage (OD) cover of {{od_insurance}} for the first year. TP insurance is government-regulated and fixed; OD premiums vary slightly by insurer.

**Other Charges: {{other_charges}}**
This covers dealer handling and logistics charges - typically a fixed Rs 3,500 for most bikes in the segment.

**Total On-Road Price: {{on_road}}**

This is for the base {{model}} variant. Higher variants (Dual Channel USD at Rs 1,24,045 and the top-spec at Rs 1,28,994) will have proportionally higher on-road prices in {{city}} due to the larger ex-showroom base. The RTO percentage of {{rto_percent}} and insurance rates remain the same across all variants.

If you're financing the purchase, factor in EMI on the on-road price: with a 20% down payment and a 36-month loan at 9-10% interest, the monthly EMI for the base variant works out to approximately Rs 3,200-3,500.
