You might find genuine motorcycles from brands like Ducati, BMW, Aprilia, and Benelli out of pocket but they do keep an edge over dupes by providing durability, a variety of options, and a better resale value. But since the prices of these genuine two wheelers have skyrocketed in the past, newbies and weekenders are left with no option than to buy a replica of these high-end bikes.
In this blog we will run you through a showroom in Lahore called Motoworld which sells quality-made replicas in a budget friendly price, that too offered with an exceptional aftersales service.
Dupe Bike Industry
Replica motorcycles or copycat bikes especially from China are in high demand in nations such as Pakistan, India, or Bangladesh. Models including Ducati 848, BMW S 1000 RR, KTM Duke, Honda CBR250R, and many others have small capacity variants in Pakistan. The bulk of imitation motorcycles will not enter markets such as America or Europe, but they are building a reputation for themselves in the developing markets. Here are some great examples of replica two-wheelers compared to their originals.
But before that let’s check some of the advantages of dupes over genuine motorcycles.
Pros Of Replicas Over High-End Bikes
- Budget-Friendly Pricing
The greatest advantage of these bikes is their super-pocket friendly pricing. Where original bikes come in a range of 60 lacs to over a crore of even more than that, you can get a sporty looking bike easily somewhere between 5 lacs to 20 lacs.
- Reliable Customer Service
Although these bikes don’t provide you with the highest quality of carbon fibre parts but they do offer some lucrative opportunities of aftersales maintenance and oil or filter changeovers in pretty reasonable packages.
Recently, dupe market has shown great progression by offering high-end equivalent quality. But do mark our words, they provide equivalent but not the same genuine quality.
- Suitable For Beginners
When it comes to buying sporty bikes, college goers or new professionals are the most enthusiastic ones but they lack finances. Here dupe bikes kick in as a savior offering good performance specs and economical pricing structure.
Usually, these bikes are never used for daily commutes. Also, it is better you don’t have a pillion rider with these two-wheelers therefore, they are good to go on weekends when you choose to relax or hang-out with your friends.
This local bike store is selling replicas over drooling prices. Like a 2019 BMW of 250 CC is available in 4.5 lacs. Although it is a slightly used bike but its great maintenance and purple black combo makes it stunning to re-use. Another bike is the 2024 BMW Z1000 replica with a Bronx exhaust, Front double disc brake, rear single disc brake, and EFI. All of this comes in a super amazing price of 10.5 lacs where the new one comes in 13 lacs.
Like these there are many other motorcycles you can get in this showroom offering amazing discounts, customer service, and maintenance packages which you can choose depending on your budget and preferences.
