When it comes to commuter motorcycles, you need a bike that is built to last and is of good quality, especially if you depend on a bike everyday. The Bajaj CT 150X has been placed as a reliable and durable option and therefore a lot of talk has been generated around its long term performance and build quality. Various owners have had different experiences as to how well the bike holds up over time, with some owners saying it’s a tough bike that can last, and others saying that issues start to arise when you’ve had the bike for several years. This has resulted in comparisons to other bikes in the segment, arguments on the quality of components used as well as maintenance requirements. Topics of interest have included paint quality, rust susceptibility, plastic part durability, and electrical component reliability. In these discussions, affordability versus quality is often discussed, and whether the CT 150X represents good value for money in terms of long term ownership.
