The Indian made stuff usually has subpar castings and fit and finish. They also usually have reliability issues. Too bad it wasn't back as a British company like the Triumph was at first, now kinda hybrid production. Part of the appeal of the newer Triumphs was that they were made in England to me, lost some of that when they started being assembled outside the UK.
I dunno Ian, while "shoddy" build quality was part of RE's gig with the prior gen bikes, they have substantially upped their game with the latest gen bikes such as the Interceptor & Meteor. That said, they are still very much price point bikes, so some compromises are of course still necessary.
