Benelli And Keeway Motorcycles Launched in Pakistan!

@Max Pain

You were at the launching ceremony, din't you have any Q&A's session and did you suggest anything etc...
makes no sense in launching RKS150 especially when you have a better alternate in Suzuki150. We need more competition in Pakistan and introduction of some cruiser bikes like Royal Enfield, Honda Shadow/Phantom, Yamaha Bolt/Stryker, Suzuki Intruder.
Nah mate as much as I wanted to, I missed the ceremony but the interviews were available on the official group,
Benelli representative, Mr Dante did say that they dp have plans for local production in future so that might bring the cost down in future,
As for the Suzuki 150 argument, im a pround owner of one but that doesnt mean there should be more bikes of same engine category, remember competition always is healthy for the customers as that will force companies to improve their products to attain a good market share. Right now there was only Road Prince wego 150 thats costs over 180k while i bought the suzuki 150 for 128k. This still makes suzuki 150 the preferable bike of its kind. And tbh it still needs a lot of improvement but suzuki wont do anything since there's none to compete with it.

Id expect benelli and Yamaha to bring a cruiser within 2 years. Both of the companies seem determined. At least thats what i got from their marketing strategies.
Theyre trying to fit in.

Are they being imported or manufactured in Pakistan? If they are manufactured, prices should be low but if they are imported, the duty on import of brand new vehicle is very high.
Right now they are importing cbu's so all taxes apply hence the price hike
 
Ughhh..Price..!!! Itnay main to meri shadi ho jaye..Thats for elite class..Not for bechaari awaam..:cry::cry:

Yes ...But most of the Pakistanis love heavy bikes ...not the choppers like David Harleyson ...You will see more heavy bikes than choppers on the road !
 
250cc @ 25.5 BHP !!!
That's a lots of power to handle . Hope , every owner won't get over exited and squeeze the accelerator .
Look at the KTM Duke story in India . Many riders lost their lives because of it . Many of the super bike owners are just rich , not a skillful and responsible riders.


Keeway looks like a decent sports / urban bike . With 11 BHP, I guess they are concentrating more on millage as I can say , same kind of 150 cc bikes in India delivers 14+BHP and around a millage 50KMPL.

As many suggested here , until and unless they started local production in auto industry , there will be always high prices and few models .

All the best to Pak Auto Industry :tup:
 
Yes so local production should be given priority

The government can declare all the priority to local production as it wants, but for manufacturers, the business case must have an adequate return for the investment and risk.
