Fuel? I'm honestly surprised two-wheelers in India haven't been completely been overtaken by electrics, at least outside of the modern traffic infrastructure of Mumbai. I've only been there a few times but so much of what I saw (mostly in Thiruvananthapuram) was urban design where the high speed and power of a motorbike wouldn't be very useful (at least as a solo rider not carrying a heavy load like a passenger or anything) - slow, cramped, chaotic traffic on dusty zig-zagging roads.
