Bajaj Discover 125
After the huge success of Discover 100, Discover 150, Pulsar 220 and Pulsar 135, Bajaj India has launched another variant of Discover. This time it is Discover 125 which has been re-launched to boost the overall sales of Discover. The company hopes to sell about 40,000 units per month of the Discover 125 and will take the entire Discover range to about 1,50,000 units by the second quarter of the coming fiscal. Bajaj Discover 125 fills the gap between Discover 100 and Discover 150, it completes the Discover range.

In terms of design and styling it was expected that Discover 125 will carry all or some of the design cues we have seen in the Discover Sprint concept which was on display at the 2008 Auto Expo in New Delhi. But bajaj has disappointed the bike lovers as they have kept the design very simple and basic which looks more or less same like the Discover 100. Bajaj Discover 125 features LED tail lamps, nitrox suspension, front disc brake, electric start and wider rear tyre.
