Looking at all the discussions here thought I could share my personal experience with bajaj. earlier I have had bikes from tvs and yamaha two years I wanted to go for a higher cc motorcycle and thats when the discover 150 came into picture I had my fears of all the reviewsi ve seen of bajaj in many years but still decided to go for a test ride and believe me I brought the bike the same day and after almost 2 years(38k kms) I can say for sure bajaj is not bad as ppl say. 2 yrs and not much maintainance(except for chain sprocket at 25k) and the mileage is almost the same from day 1(58-64). all I want to say is if u like a bike take a test ride and decide if u want it or not dont go in for brand names, resale value and what others have to say.
