The Chinese are cloning Bajajs, KTMs and even Kawasakis; Pakistanis are buying them

Chinese have been long known for their copying abilities, especially in the automotive industry. There are well-documented instances of the copied motorcycles from China. There turns out to be more cloned motorcycles from China and guess what? They have now entered the markets of Pakistan.
Kawasaki Z250 – Wing 150
The cheapest Kawasaki available in India, the Z250, is copied as the Wing 150. The Chinese made copy gets similar headlamp set-up, partial fairing and graphics. The seat is a single one instead of the split seat that comes with the original Z250. Even the alloy wheels have been copied from the original bike.
The copied motorcycle comes with disc brakes at both front and rear wheel. The motorcycle is also available in yellow and red colours. It is to be noted that Kawasaki is not officially present in the Pakistani market yet.
Bajaj Pulsar RS200 – Lion 150
The Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is quite a popular motorcycle in India. The layered fairing of the motorcycle gives it a unique look. The Lion 150 is made by a company called Zongsheng. The engine is 150cc liquid cooled single cylinder unit. The motorcycle cost about Rs. 1.8 lakh in Indian currency.
KTM 200 Duke – Lion Rokk
The 200 Duke is the first choice of enthusiasts in India. The sharp design of the motorcycle makes it one of the most desirable motorcycles for the youngsters. Chinese company Zongsheng has copied the motorcycle as Lion Rokk. The copied bike also gets Kawasaki green inspired paint job. The Rokk looks pretty similar with underbelly exhaust, exposed frame and the body panels. The bike gets petal disc brakes at front and rear.
Honda CBR 250 – YCR 150
Honda’s long association with Repsol in the MotoGP arena has given the brand a unique Repsol paint scheme. The Honda CBR 250R Repsol has been copied as YCR 150. The motorcycle gets liquid-cooled engine and blatantly copied body colours of the special edition motorcycle.
