Yamaha launched YBR 125 sports in Pakistan

[doppelganger]

Not bad. A bit costly for what it offers (the same model in India is around 70K odd) but Yamaha's build quality is top drawer. And they are really good handlers, and city commuters. This is definitely a welcome change to what you guys have in your country in terms of bike models.

Rs 125000 is bit high for 125CC Bike in Pakistan but hope that this one could offer something way better then other 125CC Bikes. Great Development for Pakistan Auto Industry I must say.

Abay o bahi mostly jo bikes hmari roads par hain wo sab kisto pay khareedy gay hain. Nobody is going to pay 129K for a bike when you can get one on easy installments.

so finally after 50 years we can see changed bikes on pak roads ?

our current bikes are nice as well.

Seriously very late launch, yamaha launched similar 125cc ypr like a decade ago in india. Somehow yamaha strategy for developing nation is like a decade old or so. It took them a lot long to bring there best bikes in India too.

And its priced very high, are taxes very high or is it imported version.
For 125K Rs we can get the latest pulsar 200cc SS FI, which looks like pocket superbike.
I am sure this is one area where Indian automobile industry can surely help and satisfy the needs of young and office going generation.

Cars and Bikes are much costly in Pakistan.
Auto industry is mafia there.

I can understand how much it hurts to a biker
We also have similar situation for imported superbikes, having tax almost 110%

None the less the 125cc bikes in India range from 40-55k, can someone help with basic tax calculation for imports and currency conversion to get an assumed import price of india bikes.

Great news. Monopoly of honda and other sister chinese brands should end. Price is marginally higher. I dont think it will affect the demand of Honada 125.

Well taxes for imported autos are important to facilitate local industry.
But in Pakistan, auto industry is full of blood suckers. Even shiti 800cc Suzuki costs almost 800000.

I bought Bajaj Avenger (220 cc) for 95,000 (on road)

 

[ZooZoo]

I bought Bajaj Avenger (220 cc) for 95,000 (on road)

When Kawasaki Eliminator (180 CC) was launched by Bajaj (U can see that bike in R Madhwan Movie RHTDM) it was 1,00,000/-. Later Bajaj put Pulsar 180 Engine in it and relaunch the same machine @70,000/-

Later it was improved and now you are using 220 CC.

I own Kawasaki Bajaj Eliminator for long time, This Bike is awesome. You will feel like God while riding it..

Pakistan need to develop domestic Auto industries then only price will go down and quality will improve.. Importing Bike is always costly...

KTM Duke price went down by half once Bajaj acquires it...

I didn't get the significance of this word here???
