The Bajaj Discover 125M retains its family DNA, with a familiar angular headlight and twin pilot lamps nestling within a bikini fairing. The instruments house a speedometer, odometer, fuel-gauge and other basic warning icons. Switchgear is good quality, and new, softer palm grips provide good comfort, fitted to a short handlebar with broad rear view mirrors. The masculine bike’s new fuel-tank slopes back to a somewhat flat riding saddle. Bajaj is offering ten-spoke alloy wheels finished in black, similar to the motorcycle engine and exhaust. Overall quality is good, at par with the best in the market. The 125M features a 124.6cc, four-stroke, single-cylinder, air-cooled and carburetted DTS-i engine, with a four-valve head. This new Discover can be brought to life via an electric or kick starter. Maximum power produced is 11.3bhp at 8000rpm, while peak torque is 1.10kgm at 6000rpm, that sums the Discover 125M up as a rather nippy motorcycle on the streets, if not the quickest out there. Power delivery is linear, and the four-speed gearbox shifts reasonably well, in an all four-up shift pattern.Read More
