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

The Bajaj Platina 110 is loved for the good value for money it offers, but then recently, there has been a lot of talk about the longevity of the motorcycle, with comparisons with Japanese brands, like Honda and Yamaha. Users who own Platina are mixed, though some claim the Platina holds up well long term use, while others complain of dirt and premature wear and tear on switches, paint, and chrome parts. The debate almost always involves if the savings the Platina has in the initial cost are negated by higher maintenance costs or shorter lifespan overall. Finally, Bajaj is pitted against the Japanese brands which have always faced questions related to after sales service quality — something which can make a lot of difference to an ownership experience and more so in such a premium offering. While some prefer the simplicity of the Platina's design, for less maintenance and cost, others enjoy the perceived Japanese engineering reliability, even if it does cost a little bit more up front.
