    Presently there are 43+ motorcycle assemblers in the country. Out of these, there are three Japanese assemblers (Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki), while the remaining 40+ assemble Chinese motorcycles. These assemblers buy parts, sub-assemblies and assemblies from over 200 large, medium and small vendors located in Karachi and Lahore. It is estimated that the motorcycle industry employs to more than 200,000 people directly and indirectly.

    Total production figures are over approx 1.0Million+ motor bicycles, as for scooters i don't think new ones are being manufactured as haven't seen.

    Pakistani motor bicycle market manufactures 70cc & 125cc models.

    And the designs are pretty ordinary, now some manufacturers have started to bring some change in the design but not very dynamic looking designs, like u have in india.

    Heavy bikes are imported.

    Hope this gives u some help in what u wished to query.

    Well, I've been to plenty of cities but the ones you mentioned (Yamaha) are not very common. I mean, at any given place 97% of bikes passing look like this:

    Sir as i said, we don't have any dynamic designed beauties like u have.

    Yamaha or any other Japanese company have not introduced such designs, but they have started to add little bit one or two changes, we still have to see the dynamic brands that u guys have.

    I really dont know! There is a huge market for bikes in Pakistan, bikes are very common here but all production models look more or less like that

    Probably the reason we dont have more powerful and neat looking bikes is that the manufacturers who make these bikes in Pakistan are nor Pakistani companies like Bajaj of India, so the high end models they do make like Yamaha's are very expensive, people wont pay that much money if its too expensive

    exactly..if it were'nt for bajaj and tvs the japs woulnt have changed a single thing and 100 cc bikes(ancient models) would have been common sight on indian roads.bajaj has kept every other company on their heels.they are the trendsetter in india.their bikes excel in everything design-performance.
    as for the pakistani 2 wheeler industry i think there is a dire need of competition until then these jap companies would be reluctant to launch newer models.
