President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko “guarded” a new generation of motorcycle “Minsk”

The new brainchild of the Minsk Motor Bike Plant was personally appreciated by the President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko. Motorcycle “Minsk” fresh generation with an engine of 600 “cubes” turned out to be a product of Chinese origin. With details – the portal “AvtoVzglyad”.

At the presentation of the new “Minsk”, the head of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, asked the factory workers a question, what is really domestic in the novelty, except for the name? And it’s true: in fact, only the design project and the idea itself turned out to be “native”. If you do not take the layout and assembly into account. Almost all components in the bicycle are Chinese: from optics to motor, from handles to shields.

However, representatives of the factory tried to justify themselves – it is much cheaper to buy spare parts in China than to produce them yourself. But if there are problems with deliveries, the local production of components will be hastily set up in Belarus.

Admittedly, the president was not satisfied with this answer: “From January 1, you have to surprise me. Nobody wants this job. What I saw a year ago is what’s left,” Alexander Lukashenko said critically of the company’s director.

By the way, in addition to the bike, the Belarusian president was shown a prototype of the M1NSK quadricycle. The AvtoVzglyad portal found out who might need a small car weighing only 463 kilograms.
