Ex-showroom price: ₹13,51,149 This is the manufacturer's base price - the same across all states. The Forty Eight had a single Standard variant with no price variation between colours or options.
Road Tax (RTO): ₹1,75,649 Road tax in Karnataka is charged at 13% of the ex-showroom price. This is one of the biggest variable costs between cities - Karnataka (Bangalore) has one of the highest road tax rates in India for premium motorcycles, while Delhi and Tamil Nadu are more moderate. The RTO charge is a one-time payment made at registration.
Insurance (comprehensive): ₹53,625 This covers third-party liability (mandatory by law) and own-damage coverage for the bike. Pricing is per IRDAI guidelines for the 1202 cc engine class. For subsequent years, expect annual premiums to decrease as the bike depreciates.
