When compared with Japanese competitors, how does the build quality of the Platina 110 fare over time?

I've had both and the difference is not as big as people try to make it seem. After a few years, the Platina feels about 90 percent as good as a Honda, but for a fraction of the price.

There's definitely worse paint quality on the Japanese bikes. I had my Platina start to scratch and fade much earlier.

It's all about expectations. The build quality is very nice for the price. Of course, if you compare it to a bike that costs 30% more, it won't feel premium.
Is the extra cost for the Bajaj Platina 110 ABS worth it?

Absolutely worth it! The ABS kicked in perfectly, and I’ve had a few close calls in the rain. For new riders, it’s a lifesaver.

Nah, it's overkill for a 110cc. More important is good brakes and rider skill. Don’t save the cash, get better tires.

Bajaj's implementation is meh, I think it's a great feature. Higher end bikes feel much more solid than my friend's Platina ABS.

It’s not just safety, it’s confidence. Knowing you have ABS relieves you as a more relaxed rider in tricky conditions.

It’s not just the initial price that’s extra cost – you’ve got to also factor in the potential repair costs down the line. That trouble might be ABS on a budget bike.

If you ride in heavy traffic or wet conditions often, I’d say it’s worth it. For rural areas with less traffic, probably not necessary.

The ABS is nice but I feel they could have made other things on the bike better. In my opinion better suspension would do more for safety.
This is the reason why Bajaj discontinued the Platina 110 ABS so soon.

I bet chip shortages are the reason. Those fancy chips are what ABS needs, and they're probably putting it on higher end models, sadly.

Maybe it didn't sell well? For example, people usually buy 110cc bikes because they are super price conscious. Perhaps the ABS version was too expensive for the target market.

I heard the ABS unit had some quality problems. Before relaunching, Bajaj might have fixed it.

Probably just a marketing stunt. Make it hype, release it in limited supply and then bring it back as a 'new improved' version later.

They're likely clearing old stock. Now that the non-ABS models are sold out, they’ll likely bring back the ABS version full time.

I think it's a regulatory thing. Perhaps they rushed to bring the safety certification online and had to dial it back.

Maybe maintenance was a nightmare for dealers. Budget bikes with complex systems are a service headache.
Comparing Platina 110's "ComforTec" suspension to rivals.

It's definitely better than my old Splendor. Now potholes don’t rattle my bones so much.

Overhyped, in my opinion. Test rode and couldn't tell any difference from my friend's Honda.

ComforTec is good, but I think TVS's suspension is still smoother. It's close though.
