BACK GROUND OF THE SURVEY
The Indian two-wheeler sector is the largest in terms of volumes among the entire
segment in Automobiles Industry. The Indian two-wheeler market has a size of over
Rs 100 billion with sales of more than 3.7 million units in 20002001 and has been
growing at 7% rate over 1887-2001. Five players mainly dominate the two-wheeler
segment. All these companies have foreign collaboration mainly with well known
Japanese firms. All these players have been expanding capacity and widening their
product base which confirm to Euro Environment norms. Indian is one of the lowest
cost production bases for two-wheelers. In the last four to five yrs, the two
wheeler market has witnessed a marked shift towards motorcycles at the expense of
scoters. In the process the share of motorcycle segment has grown from 48% to 58%.
The urban customers are aspiring to possess the latest in terms of looks,
technology, energy efficient and sleeker looking models that replaced the staid
ones in the market. In rural areas, consumers have come to prefer sturdier bikes to
withstand the bad road conditions. Marketing is a dynamic field. In past few years,
many important and dynamic changes have taken place in marketing field as a result
of rapid technological changes, globalization as well as unemployment and
stagnation, etc. The marketing executives have been forced to assume wide range of
responsibilities. The companies have been more market driven in their strategic
decision-making. To cater this need of decision-making, a formalized means of
acquiring information is necessary. This is need is by “Market Research”. The
American Marketing Association Defines Market Research as “The systematic
gathering,
10
recording and analyzing of data about problem relating to marketing of goods and
services.” The subjects to which companies apply their marketing research are
markets, products, sales force problems, distribution channel, advertising and
other problems broader than marketing such as Business and short-term for

1.2 PRODUCT – OVERVIEW Yamaha R15
The R Concept:
The YZF-R1 and YZF-R6 are equipped with under cowls that are based on the image of
a diffuser, to give them the best form for aero-management. These are not cowls for
simply enclosing the engine, but forms composed of blade surfaces that actively
control airflow. This spirit has been directly inherited by the YZF-R15. “Harmony
between rider and machine.” YAMAHA's Human Technology involves studying the form of
the motorcycle actually in motion with the rider on it. The R series is the
embodiment of 1) A wide frontal space that protects the rider, 2) An easy to ride
seating area that gives riders the freedom of movement and allows them to steer
effectively, 3) The glamorous tail treatment that takes into account the management
of airflow behind the rider, and
12
4) A sensual racing form that brings all 3 of these elements together in a
harmonious package. These characteristics have been splendidly reproduced in the
YZF-R15.Additionally; the designs were developed in the same modelling room where
YZF-R1 designers worked. Information was shared, ensuring that the R lineage would
be transmitted. In addition, the model also incorporates a multitude of adjustments
for the Indian market including seat shape that allows for tandem riding
(integrated with the main seat).

Yamaha Enticer
The bike on test with me is the base version without disc brakes or self start,
costing Rs.55, 185/-. If you add Rs.9,000/- to it for disc brake and self start, it
still is only Rs.64,000/-, which is still Rs.25,000/- less than the Eliminator
which comes with self start and disc as standard.
While the Enticer entices aspirants with its price, the Eliminator eliminates most
aspirants with its price.
So, what is it like? Looks it has in plenty. Raised handlebar. Long wheel-base.
Easy rider seating geometry. Foot boards instead of foot pegs. Fat rear tyre.
Single pod instruct. Chromed RV mirrors. And currently available in three colours:
Gold (light yellow), Burgundy (reddish) and Black.
Motive power comes from the same square, 54 mm x 54 mm bore x stroke, 123.7cc pot
that powers the Yamaha YBX. While max. Torque of 1.06 KgM at 6500 rpm is identical
to the YBX, the 11 bhp (PS) of power in the Enticer engine comes at a slower 8000
rpm while in the YBX it comes at a higher 8500 rpm. Compression ratio of the
Enticer is 10:1.

Wheelbase is 1375 mm with a claimed ground clearance of 140 mm. Kerb weight (with

Engine oil specified is Yam lube 4-stroke motor oil (20W40 type SF) or equivalent.
Yamaha also warns NOT to use oils that contain anti-friction modifiers or car oils
(often referred to as Energy conserving oils) that contain anti-friction additives,
since this will cause clutch slippage and will in turn reduce life of components
and cause drop in engine performance. While total quantity of engine oil is 1.2
litres, top up quantity is a convenient one litre. It is found in different colors:
Black Burgundy Gold

Yamaha RXG 135
Note: Company does not manufacture this model.
The present models of Yamaha are cashing in on the popularity gained by the Yamaha
RX100. Yamaha decided to launch upgraded models after the earlier model could not
conform to the emission standards. The first was the RXG 135. It made up for the
power loss due to improvement in the engine to tackle emission norms. However, it
could not match the performance and the expectation that people had developed about
Yamaha because of the RX 100. Then came the YEIS 135. There is a considerable
difference in performance due to changed gear ratio and tuning. The styling has
also been adapted to reflect a more contemporary ethos. This is finally a bike that
Yamaha lovers love to call their own.
27
Escorts Ace
Note: Company does not manufacture this model. A product of contemporary
technology, it has a happy blend of hi-power hi-pick up 175cc, 10bhp engine with
ecolube and alfine cylinder for better cooling and longer engine life-ideal for
tropical climate. Its aerodynamic, modern styling reflects right from the front
fairing to the rear trims with integrated lights. Its longer wheel base, wide
tyres, better ground clearance and bigger brake drums make it a safe bike for the
Indian roads.
Yamaha RXZ
Note: Company does not manufacture this model. This is an entirely new look Yamaha,
achieved with the help of the side panel, matching headlight cover, engine guard
and fuel tank has enhanced the sale and the look of the bike. To go with the new
style is the 135cc engine that the Yamaha introduced with the RX 135. The engine
along with its styling changes brought the spirit of the RX 100 back into the
Yamaha RXZ. The addition of a tachometer to the Speedo consloe looks a bit
incomplete but has made up for the lack of instrumentation in the earlier models.
An addition is the headlight, which improves the styling, and also the aerodynamics
of the vehicle.

2.2 Types of Data: 2.2.1 Primary Data:
Primary Data were collected by survey of customers in pune. Primary Data were
collected through personal interview with structure questionnaire. In all the
methods, Personal interview method was most suitable for the market survey.
33
2.4 Sample Plan:
Sample Plan may be defined as the selection of some part of an aggregate or
totality on the basis of which a judgment or inference about the aggregate or
totality is made. In other words, it is the process of obtaining information about
an entire population by examining only a part of it.
2.4.1 Universe:
From a statistical point of view, the term „universe‟ refers to the total of the
items or units in any field of inquiry or to the total of items about which
information is desired. For the purpose of this study the universe has been defined
as “The set consisting of all the customer of Insurance in Pune city (Sinhgad
institute and sinhgad road)
34
2.5 Methods of Data collection:
Methods by which data are collected. The type of data collection begins after a
research problem has been defined and research design chalked out. Here the data
were collected through two methods. 1) Personal Interview Method. 2) Telephone
Interview Method.
2.5.1 Questionnaire:
A questionnaire consists of a number of questions printed or typed in a definite
order on a form or set of forms. A questionnaire is sent to the persons concerned
with request to answer the question and return the questionnaire. The questionnaire
is mailed to respondents who are expected to read and understand the questions and
write down the reply in the space meant for the purpose in the questionnaire
itself. The respondents have to answer the questions on their own. In this project
questionnaire were given to the 50 customer and information collected form those
questionnaires were used for data processing and analysis.
35
open ended questions(inviting free response) but this should be stated in advance
and not during questioning. When this characteristics are not present in a
questionnaire it can be term as un-structured questionnaire. In this project
structured questionnaire were used with closed and open ended questions in it. As
this form of questionnaire reduces the difficulty of the respondent while answering
the questions?
36
For this project percentage method is used for the analysis of the available data.
With the help of percentage method the data has been converted into percentage and
has been represented with the help of graph.
2.8 Limitations:
1) The recommendations are based on the respondents, which may include an element
of bias. 2) Respondents are the representatives of others but opinion of these few
respondents may differ from a group of thousand people.
3) Span of time was very short. 4) More time require for completing a single
interview through a structured questionnaire. 5) Complete dependence of decision
making on the outcome of the research.

53
CHAPTE NO .V
54
SUGGESTIONS
After looking into the finding of the survey! I would like to give some suggestion
to the company. So that Yamaha India Pvt. Ltd. can increase its share in the two
wheeler automobile market. It has been found in the survey that Yamaha bikes are
facing problems due to its features of motorcycle. The customers are basically
complaining about the mileage, which is the major problem the bike is facing. Apart
from the survey, what I feel is that the reason of motorcycle sale not picking up
in the market as compared to other brands is the lack of aggressive marketing I
would like to give 40% of the reasons of not picking up sales of bike to its
product and 60% to the improper marketing strategy which is the main reasons as to
why the company is not able to increase its share in the market. Company must focus
its attention on the marketing aspects of motorcycle segment because I found to
that there is still lack of awareness of the product in the market which is a
matter that has to be carefully looked upon strategically and move forward to
strive for excellence in the market. In the end, I would say that the customer
satisfaction should be the main target and mission of the company of the company to
create the brand loyalty among the customer.
55
CONCLUSION
The Yamaha bikes are perceived as power bike in the market. There is need to
reposition Yamaha bikes as mileage is the most attractive factor in the Indian
Customer‟s mind. The company needs aggressive marketing efforts. The customer
satisfaction level is up to the mark. The company has about 10% market share in
the two-wheeler segment of automobile industry.
