I bought discover 150cc Dtsi bike yesterday(4th July, 10).
This site helped me a lot in finalizing the bike and I am happy with my decision.
As a favor in return, I’ll be writing my experiences here.
I can promise you a genuine review.
First of all why Discover 150?
well, I searched a lot, read several reviews too and finally took test rides and finally found this to be the best available bike in my budget viz. 50K. It has got everything you would expect looks, disk brakes, nitrox suspension, alloy wheels, and best of all a 150 cc 13 bhp DTSi engine.
For day 1, The bike got all the glances from the shop to my home:) well that may be because of Teflon coating:)
Looks:
Though the discover is not a new model but as bajaj does with all its models, this 150cc discover has some minor enhancements such as wider tyre, cover over the disk brake and the bold graphics. The wider tyre specially enhaces the rear look.
Pick Up;
Bike’s pick up is just awesome.
I rode gladiator as well but found discover’s pick up better than the gladiator’s may be its because the gladi is 125cc.
Disco rocks as far as engine sound, suspension and looks are considered.
One thing which I didn’t like is the petrol capacity sadly its just 8 liters.Also, I have also noticed that the gear box is not very smooth, I hope it will get better after servicing.
Buy Details:
Bought from: TCS Bajaj, Faridabad.
Buying price: 49653 with teflon coating
Will keep updating the same.
Comments/feedback/questions are welcome:)
Update 23/08/2010:
Its been almost two months and my bike have done~ 1200 KMs and is over with its first service.Still My Disco rocks:) .
The milege is not as good as it claims to be . I am getting~ 40 kmpl in monsoon city conditions. so not very bad . else everything is cool. Love its balance and handling due to wider rear tyre, specially in this rainy season.
Thanks,
Anks
