Abstract
In the 21st century, two-wheelers play a crucial role in India, especially among the middle-class population, who rely on them as a primary mode of transportation due to their affordability. The widespread use of motorcycles, powered by two-stroke and four-stroke engines running on petrol or diesel, significantly contributes to global warming because of the low quality of these fuels. Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), which is already used as an alternative fuel in four-wheelers, can be adapted for two-wheelers with certain modifications. CNG possesses unique properties, such as a high-octane rating, which allows for rapid combustion, enhancing engine performance and fuel efficiency. Additionally, India has abundant CNG resources, making it a sustainable and lightweight fuel option that can be conveniently refuelled at existing CNG stations. This study highlights the results and parameters that demonstrate the feasibility of using CNG in two-wheelers and 809 emphasizes the potential benefits, encouraging the automotive industry to adopt this technology. Keywords: CNG, two-wheeler, fuel, Natural gas.
