Risk analysis and relevant products-
India is a developing country and not many people prefer to travel on two wheelers but the trend of going on excursions and road trips on bikes is increasing. But people prefer to go with their friends and there are event planning sites already available. But this app helps the user by accumulating all those sites and their facilities on a single platform so the user won’t have to visit multiple sites. Buying and selling aspect works in the same way, when buying a motorized vehicle the app will book your vehicle, but the registration process and the payment method will have to be physical. Currently there are different sites and apps where one can sell their vehicle but the main selling point of this app will be is that users don’t have to visit different sites and local dealers of anything as everything related to a two wheeled vehicle will be available on this app.
