Two-wheeled refers to two-wheeled motorized vehicles (for example, motorcycles).
The two-wheeler travel mode differs from the bicycle travel mode, which is a
human-powered travel mode.

> [!CAUTION]
> **Caution:** Requests using a travel mode of `TWO_WHEELER` are billed at a higher rate. [Learn more about billing](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/routes/usage-and-billing.md.txt) for Routes API.

Use the `travelMode` property of a request to specify the mode. The possible
values of this property are defined by enumerations in
[RouteTravelMode](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/routes/reference/rest/v2/RouteTravelMode.md.txt) (REST) and
[RouteTravelMode](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/routes/reference/rpc/google.maps.routing.v2.md.txt#routetravelmode) (gRPC).

## Specify the two-wheeler travel mode

When you call a Routes API, you specify the `RouteTravelMode`
enumeration value to specify the travel mode.

The following example shows how to set the travel mode to `TWO_WHEELER`
in a [computeRoutes](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/routes/reference/rest/v2/TopLevel/computeRoutes.md.txt) method (REST)
request body. You can also specify this option to the
[ComputeRoutes](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/routes/reference/rpc/google.maps.routing.v2.md.txt#google.maps.routing.v2.Routes.ComputeRoutes)
method (gRPC).

In this example, you compute the directions between two locations in India
specified by Plus codes:

```json
{
  "origin":{
    "address": "H8MW+WP Kolkata India"
  },
  "destination":{
    "address": "GCG2+3M Kolkata India"
  },
  "travelMode":"TWO_WHEELER"
}
```
