Bajaj Discover 150 :- HEY HEY , I got a laugh at first look, I thought bajaj was selling 100 cc discover by just adding "150" sticker at the end. I jokingly asked the salesman, IS this anew trading trick by bajaj?? He answered Sir take a test drive and then give your opinion. I said okay and took it for a test drive of 4-5 KM’s. Mann, I couldn’t believe my senses. It was so nimble and engine was so responsive, handling was never so easy with bajaj.I asked the salesman about the specs. When he said that it gives a mileage of 60-65 in PROPER DRIVING CONDITIONS I thoguht he was joking. I took the quotation for discover 150 and left.But the ride feel was still present in my hands. I thought I will take a test drive at a different Show room’s to negate my first opinion. Now , I said I took 30 test drives right, the reason is test drive bikes are well tuned and Showroom guys tempt buyers with them , so I took almost 10 test drives of Discover 150, 10 of unicorn and 10 of suzuki from different showrooms. As Honda and suzuki had their share of problems, I decided to zero in on discover and bought it from Sri vinayaka Bajaj, Kachiguda , Hyderabad. Now that I have it since more than one year, below are the negatives and positives about it on prolonged usage PROS :- 1.) Sexy engine and pick up. Has even amazed Karizma owners at signals 2.) Best engine bajaj ever produced as it is fitted withcatalytic converters.Better than a pulsar and silent like a tiger waiting for its prey 3.) Homely Girls(Like my girlfriend :P) tend to have a liking for discover 4.) icing on cake, mileage of around 55-60 KM/l in city driving for a 150 CC . WOWWWWW......... CONS :-1.) No looks and No digital meters 2.)Very Light weight 3.) Allergic to CASTROL engine oil and any 20W40 Grade engine oil. But after 15 monthsof usage and clocking 15000 KM, this machine is worth every pie spenton it.Top speed I went was 90 KMPH (my GF was on board and she was screaming to reduce the speed so didn’t cross 100 :) :) :) ) and it took around 10 seconds to go from 0-90 KMPH speed.No mileage issues and no spare part issues.On the whole, a satisfying product
