Minar-e-Pakistan (Under Construction) at Iqbal Park - #Lahore c. 1967

The tower was designed and supervised by Nasreddin Murat-Khan, an architect and engineer hailing from Daghestan.The structural design was given by a civil engineer Abdur Rehman Khan Niazi from Lahore, who was working with Murat Khan. Approved by the President, the design was built by Mian Abdul Khaliq and Company.[citation needed] The foundation stone was laid on 23 March 1960. The construction took eight years, and was completed in 1968. The Minar was completed on 31 October 1968 at an estimated cost of Rs. 705,8000. The money was collected by imposing an additional tax on the cinema and horse racing tickets on the demand of Akhtar Hussain, governor of West Pakistan. Today, the minaret provides a panoramic view to visitors who can climb up the stairs or through an elevator. The parks around the monument include marble fountains and an artificial lake

Yeah pretty much all the less powerful bikes look like that. Honda brought that shape like a 100,000 years ago and is still continuing it. The rest copied it from Honda.

Funnily enough the frame is almost identical to the CB160 built in 1965, the frame design has been replicated by Kawasaki and Suzuki, so it must be good right?

Oh yeah, it's a minimalist design, and has to be since a 70-125 cc engine can't really carry much. Keeps the bike cheap too which is essential for its sale in our part of the world, since its the less wealthy who need it and would buy it. Simple, light and cheap, works just fine since the intended purpose for these bikes is just a cheap vehicle which can take you from A to B.

We don't see the CB160 in Lahore but I remember that my cousin had one in Karachi when I went there as a little kid back in the late 90s. He loved it more than his Ninja and I just couldn't understand why.
