# Upcoming Bajaj Dual-Sport Motorcycle: Name, Specifications, and Launch Details
Bajaj Auto is expanding its portfolio with an upcoming dual-sport motorcycle, frequently spotted during test runs on Indian roads. Positioned as a rugged, trail-ready offering, the motorcycle is designed to bridge the gap between daily commuting, long-distance touring, and light off-roading.
Industry reports suggest the motorcycle could be named the Bajaj Trekker. Because this dual-sport format falls outside the scope of existing sub-brands like Pulsar, Dominar, or Avenger, it is expected to establish a new, dedicated sub-brand. The name “Trekker” aligns with the manufacturer’s trademark filings in 2024, which included *Trekker*, *Marathon*, *Glider*, and *Freedom*.
Spy shots indicate the motorcycle is in advanced stages of development and shares mechanical components with Bajaj’s existing lineup to ensure competitive pricing:
#The motorcycle is expected to utilize a 250cc air-oil-cooled engine, potentially sourced from the Bajaj Pulsar N250, known for its strong low-end and mid-range torque delivery.
#Test mules feature a classic dual-sport wheel setup consisting of spoked wheels—likely a 21-inch front and 17-inch rear combination—wrapped in dual-purpose block-pattern tires.
#Suspension and Brakes: The setup includes slim telescopic forks with gaiters at the front, a rear monoshock, and disc brakes equipped with switchable dual-channel ABS.
The silhouette of the upcoming motorcycle resembles traditional dirt bikes and international dual-sport models, featuring:
#A tall stance with minimal bodywork and a high-mounted front fender.
#An upswept exhaust system designed to clear rough terrain and water crossings.
#Upright ergonomics, wide handlebars, and a flat, long single-piece seat to facilitate easy maneuverability and a standing riding posture.
# Modern amenities, including an LED projector headlight, a digital or TFT display with smartphone connectivity, navigation capabilities, and a USB charging port.
The Bajaj dual-sport motorcycle is anticipated to launch in the Indian market prior to the festive season. It is projected to be positioned aggressively in the affordable adventure and dual-sport segment, with an estimated starting price of under Rs 2 lakh (ex-showroom). Upon release, it will compete directly with established models like the Hero Xpulse 210.
