Still
refreshing? as it has always been.
The
Discover is a handsomely styled bike which stands out
in the 125cc segment, while rivals the Fazer and Victor
continue to evoke mixed response. Now when the Discover
genes are transplanted into the 100cc-110cc segment it
blitzes out all competition. Even in the 100cc executive
bike segment the likes of the Splendor and Passion seem
pre-historic in comparison.
The accolades won by Discover on the styling front say
it all. As one would expect, this isn?t the stripped down
variant but sports exactly the same clothes and accessories
that adorn the 125 DTSi version.
The two sport identical body graphics too. You get five-spoke
alloys as standard besides the rear wheel hugger, making
it the only bike in the segment to sport these premiums.
Switchgear is the standard unit found on all Bajaj bikes
from the CT 100 to Avenger. It also retains the ?ride
control? switch which acts as a throttle limiter by making
the twist slightly heavier beyond a certain limit to spotlight
speeds to achieve the best Fuel
Efficiency at. Fit and finish is good all round
though quality of materials could be better, especially
the handlebar grips which leave you with chafed palms
on winter mornings.
The twin pod instrument cluster is carried over as well
complete with the tripmeter, further emphasising the ?no
stripping? policy that Bajaj has adopted for this bike.
