In most cases the engines are not right protected only the design of the cases the ornamental design is right protected, most are off patent for the mechanical designs. They simply have to alter and most do the designs of the casing on the engines. As for making exact of nearly exact copies that is totally illegal and in most every country. If the manufactures that being the original manufacturers maintained international patent on the ornamental designs. I highly doubt that Honda did not or does not maintain the patents on the Varadero. The Lifeng SPT 350 likely violates several design patents.


Shame on Jawa for not knowing and respecting that, they are party to that when offering this model. Do not assume that these issues go unaddressed, they likely are and do through legal letters. Many can agree or disagree but there are processes of law that have to be respected and processes to change them as well. But simply ignoring the laws has repercussions.
