Bajaj Discover(Indian Motorcycles):The DHOOM Machade bike...
Bajaj Auto Ltd. seems to have knocked the right track with its new bike Discover to hit the roads in this month. What Bajaj is offering is an accurate blend of power and fuel efficiency coupled with good riding and looks as a bonus.
The looks are very upmarket. Going out of hardlined thinking, what they have done is that they have offered six spoke alloy wheels for the first time in this segment, which is a welcome change and gives a fresh look to the bike. The bike consists of just the right turnout of toned youthful muscles unlike heavily pumped Pulsar. The instrument panel is of good quality and consists of trip meter and fuel gauge in base version. The overall looks of the bike, in precise terms, is very sexy yet contemporary.
It’s got the longest wheelbase in the class with 1305mm. This has directly transformed into better pillion comfort. This also shows Bajaj India’s commitment not to cut costs at the price of quality and comfort. The saddle height remains 795mm which is good enough for any Indian commuter. The headlamp is by far the most powerful in the industry.
The Ride and Handling is the best in the class of 125 cc which can only be compared to Yamaha Fazer.
Talking bout Performance it’s by far the fastest bike in the 125cc class with the top speed as 111km/h and 0-100 km/h in just below 21 seconds. This can be accounted for its 11.5 PS engine and a power to weight ratio of 92 PS per ton, which can safely be slotted as the most powerful.
Everything boils down to the point of fuel efficiency as it has proved itself on the performance front. Hmmm... Let’s see. An overall fuel efficiency of 69kmpl in modest terms... This seems top of the line to me difficult to be matched by even many 100cc bikes.
Okay so maintaining it won’t be difficult on the pocket but how much does it costs. If I’d say approx Rs. 41000 for the base drum version and around Rs. 46000 for the niche version with alloy wheels and electric start and disc brakes and tachometer and... You won’t believe me right. Don’t believe me. Just check it out for yourself. And if you ask me, I’d say go get it now. There is no other bike better than this bike right now in the indian market which has best of both the worlds, good performance at a very good fuel efficiency. Who knows what booking spree would be going on out there by the time you read this article.

2) Fuel Efficiency

4) Ultimate Maintenance free Performance.
though bjaja discover is fantastic bike it is facing the same problems a sits big brothers puluser twins, that is VIBRATIONS, the bike vibrates heavely at pickup and no though the bajaj dealers acknowladge the problem but have no answers. only answer they have its due to 'lack of fifth gear'
hei i am from bangladesh. I am Rafi. Here the price of Bajaj Discover self starter is 94000 BDT. Is it not huge where as 1 rs means 1.45 taka. on the other hand TVS Victor GLX is 90000 BDT. So the difference is very significant. Can any body give me suggestion what bike should i buy?
Discover or GLX?

Do not buy this bike. Do not just go for the looks, see the inside of it.
This bike by bajaj is LAST in Design & WORST in Quality.
You may be unaware what a customer of BAJAJ undergoes when he own a product of BAJAJ. I am writing this to you for your information only and not with any other intension. I am very disturbed by what has happened to my bike & i could not keep it to myself. If you really think customer is first, then please do read this.
I OWN a Discover with Disc & TachoMeter. There is a transmission problem with this bike. Bajaj themself’s have replaced my bike’s chain & chain sprockets 3 times, but still the problem exists. Nobody in BAJAJ, be it an expert could solve this problem till date.
Finally seeing the problem not being solved I requested for replacement of the vehicle or refund the cost of the vehicle. But Service Department, Pune did not agree to it.
Finally I approached the consumer court, but unfortunately i lost the case.
