This GSLV character is also claiming that Hero, Bajaj, Kinetic and other Indian crap brands are God's technological gift to South Asia. These crap brands all started the same way, by having JV for a few years with better Japanese or European brands and then stealing their technology and breaking off the JV so they can use it for India's own local market which is large. Since its their captive market, they can sell substandard low quality crap to Indians and get away with it. See story at the end of this post.
fallacy No 1: That Indian brands have zero R&D capabilities.
truth: They have robust R&D. Bajaj for example have developed products for KTM, now sold worldwide
fallacy No 2: India's market is a captive market.
Truth: really ?

Well the reason these crap brands sell well is because of low cost, whether locally in India or in places like Bangladesh -
fallacy no 3: Indian bikes cost less.
Truth : they are placed at par or even higher than their their competitors . Here is an example BTW.

But that advantage only lasts until more nimble, agile, cost-efficient local competitors in places like Bangladesh come along.
fallacy no 4: Bangladeshi manufacturers are more agile & nimble (whatever that means) and will replace Indian products:
Truth: Most Indian motorcycles have only increased their market share in Bangladesh while share of walton have fallen. Asking little Walton to compete with Bajaj is a tall order.

Or it will be Chinese or Japanese brands made locally and exported to those markets which don't have local manufacture.
As if central/south America doesn't have any Japanese bikes.
See some quality issues below with Indian brands....from India's own motorcycle review forum, Motorbeam. Such stellar quality, cracked head unit, frames, paint in fuel tank clogging fuel line....the list goes on and on.
Hero Splendor Ismart, the first engine designed by Hero without the Japanese - is a total flop and a failure. RECALLED! SO MUCH for Indian super pawa techno-prowess......
nitpicking two particular models out of several ones doesn't prove shit.
