The rear suspension is something new. it would have been much better if the engine was oil cooled, just like the pulsar.

125CC with 5 speed just doesn't cut it. I've Yamaha RX-Z, 5-speed that has 125CC engine. I seldom use the 5th gear while riding on city roads. Looks wise, the bike is nice and I guess Bajaj bike designers tend to focus more on sitting comfort for their bikes. That's indeed a great approach to take.

I'm yet to discover the advantages of Nitrox mono-shock with 9-step adjustment suspension. Is there anything about it to highlight?

Basically I like the Design.. It has got some sportish look.. #-Link-Snipped-# I liked your idea of oil cooled engine.. That would be perfect for engine life, but I think Bajaj tried to keep it in mid range if think of price terms i.e. About 55K. Making a oil cooled engine would increase the price a bit.

I regret of buying discover one year ago 😛 I really liked the new version.

Price i don't think so would have been a big matter, because since it was implemented for pulsar, the bike still sold in large numbers.
Besides i don't think you should regret, because any now and then Bajaj will come up with a newer and better version of either discover or pulsar.

s i agree with him because the bajaj should get tto top position when it has newer and developed version of pulsar and discover them selves
