Aveta Malaysia to launch budget 110 kapchai in Nov?

Aveta Malaysia to launch budget 110 <em>kapchai</em> in Nov?

Malaysian-owned brand Aveta Global Marketing is set to release another budget-market underbone motorcycle, possibly this November. Pricing is not determined as yet pending government approval but sources close to Aveta say it is likely “to be around RM3,000.”

In keeping with the budget-conscious side of things, the engine of the upcoming Aveta kapchai model looks to be a 110 cc air-cooled unit, probably putting out around seven or eight horsepower which would be typical of power plants in this class. A four-speed centrifugal clutch gear box and chain drive gets power to the ground.

On the right side engine casing is a plate saying “Made in Malaysia” with a housing for an electric starter on the left and it is assumed fuelling is by carburettor, making this engine Euro 3 compliant. However, we are unable to determine the extent of the meaning of the words, “Made in Malaysia” and whether it encompasses the whole bike and a percentage of local content.

For the photos paultan.org managed to obtain, the new Aveta comes with a split rider and passenger seat, which would make it easy to customise, say, by adding a large delivery box. The wheels are 17-inch spoked items, using standard size tyres and braking is with mechanical drum brakes front and back.

While no photos show the front end of the bike, it would be safe to assume front suspension is with conventional telescopic forks while the rear is held up by preload-adjustable twin shock absorbers. A round plastic clad binnacle houses the single headlight while the instrument panel is an analogue affair showing an indicated 120 km/h top speed – closer to 90 km/h would probably be more realistic, with odometer and various warning lights.

    Why not consider to bring in e-kapchai from China. I believe the price will be very competitive

    Is this model a Demak rebadge too?
    Or is it a bike which is built by whatever parts they found being left behind by Demak.

    The fact that the kick starter rusted (on a new bike ) is not a good sign.

      ED coat on a moving part like kick starter is a no no. The ED coat will peel off and rust will form.

      The kick starter should be in black phosphate coating. Which should be much more cheaper than ED coating.

      If they have proper development engineers, they would have improved all these small items to make the product look more presentable.

    It is basically a combination of parts made in china and assembled in Malaysia. But from the looks of it, the design and the minimalist styling is very original and refreshing. If it is sold below RM3k, I would not hesitate to get one just for fun and for the local kedai runcit trips.

    I can’t expect much if the bike is priced around 3k. Things are kept bare minimum, heck even skimped on plastic bits. Seats also looks kind small. Pity the riders with big bum bum.

    Just please dont cut, cut, cut cost until reliability becomes a problem.

    I don’t mind something looking and feeling cheap when it is this cheap. That’s basically the price of a c70 25 years ago. Which makes this even cheaper if you factor in inflation.

    And like the c70, I don’t think this even has front telescoping forks…hahaha

    Its very close to a naked bike
    No leg shield seen in picture
    Thus lower wind resistance
    So I think can achieve 120kmh

    This bikes are the loudest (modified) & most polluted smoke on the road – e-bike should take over all lower cc bike, for better environment
