I'm openly biased against Chinese bikes. And over time, perhaps you can repay some 30,000 THB put on a credit card That MT-03 would give me peace of mind for years to come. And in a few years, you would "save" the difference on depreciation. The Benelli's will be dreadful. 

I agree, I stay away from them too, as does most Thais. See heaps of MT slash and 03 in Pattaya now, young Thai men riding them. However I do also see many Cent 150cc around, most heavily modified.

I just bought a Yamaha MT 03 , 4 months old 900km for 130k, hard to beat value for a proper bike

 

Nice bike! I love the naked Yamahas. Mslaz, mt03, mt07, mt10. The whole line looks great. Yamaha hit a home run.
