welll.. there are those that hate the indian bikes, and those that see very
little difference.. Scootering Magazine gives them pretty positive reviews,
with commentary about slightly less than vespa-quality workmanship...
Personally, since the parts are pretty much interchangeable, and I've gotten
piaggio parts that were shit before.. I dont think it makes a big
difference.
the tires, however, are shit.

*The Bajaj Cheetak is (I'm told) made using the tooling that made the Vespa

*saying that they were inferior.
*The tyres on them ARE not good either.
