Bajaj Discover 135cc review, specifications, colors, picture and price

The Indian leader of Auto Market Bajaj’s Jaadoo is Discover 135cc which is one of the most selling bikes in India. I have come across most of friends saying that old Discover 135cc rocks than the latest version 135cc. So I thought of reviewing the old discover first. Here it goes…

Best features:
  • It gets DTS-i engine with the Displacement of 135cc
  • Great handling at any kind situations/roads
  • Wider rear tyre which gives great stability and grip
  • It gets slim chain cover (open type) which gives great appeal to sport look
  • NitroX suspension- an added advantage to choose this bike. Whether you ride this bike on bumps or normal road, it gives awesome feel to ride. It is borrowed from Pulsar
  • The new RPM meter along with others in the instrument panel
  • Delivers the maximum power of 13.5bhp @ 8500 rpm and torque of 11.88nm @ 6500 rpm
  • 240mm front disc brake and drum brake at rear tyre
  • It comes with proven TRICS, DTS-i and ExhausTEC technologies
  • Pilot lights at front
  • Maintenance free 12V battery

Bajaj Discover 135cc DTS-i
This bike is available in following color themes
  • Black with red stripes
  • Black with blue stripes

This was priced at Rs. 54,500/- (On road price, Bangalore).

Speed and Performance:
Bajaj claimed that this bike will hit maximum of 105 kmph. However it reaches 118 kmph with pillion. I was able to overtake Pulsar 150cc at times, not always. It gives good comfort in long run. Either no back pain or shoulder pain.

If your height is on or above 170mm, you can change the handlebar with Pulsar’s handlebar which gives much more comfort in riding.

Overall, it is a great bike to go for.

Bajaj halts Pulsar 200cc production

Bajaj Auto Ltd, has decided to stop the production of Pulsar 200cc bikes. It is basically to give a great way to the new fastest Indian bike Pulsar 220cc.

The Pulsar 200cc delivers the maximum power of 18pc where as the new Pulsar 220cc delivers 21.04ps of pinnacle power. Pulsar 200cc can reach 130kmph where the new fastest Indian bike can reach 130kmph easily and it can reach maximum of 144kmph. Moreover showroom cost is same for these two flavors of Pulsars. It is priced at Rs. 70,000/- (ex-showroom rate, Delhi) which is Rs. 15,000 less from the previous version of Pulsar 220cc‘s cost.

However Bajaj Auto has some units of Pulsar 200 which will be available only in few showrooms. There will not be any more supply of Pulsar 200cc.

Bajaj Pulsar 220cc - 2009 Edition
Bajaj believes that this will promote other versions of Pulsar, 150cc, 180cc and 220cc. It will have more competition with TVS’s Apache RTR series, Yamaha’s R15, FZ Series, and Hero Honda’s Karizma.

Hope it helps Bajaj to reach another height with their new Pulsar 2009 editions.

New Bajaj Pulsar 220cc DTS-i Review, Features, Price

Bajaj Pulsar 220cc DTSi – A bike for the riders who are expecting to have a bike that’s rocking in all the way; whether it is performance, power, or handling in all the conditions.

The new Bajaj’s Pulsar 220 DTSi is equipped with fresh laid black top freeloading suspension (both front and rear) keeps the machine extremely neutral feel. It never goes to false or struck while changing the transmission. Thousands of tanks to new gearbox which is supplied by FCC Riko (a Honda company no less!). Throttling is been really great with 220 DTSi than the previous 220 DTS-FI. The overall suspension mechanism remains same but a slight tweak to the front scrape by a half degree.
New Bajaj Pulsar 220cc DTSi 2009 Edition
The modified stronger and larger front fork delivers solid and firmer feel which gives more strength, power at such high speed stability. Another great ingredient of Pulsar 220 DTSi is softer compound tyres. MRF have provided tyres with soft on rubber compound to increase the grip on the road without sacrificing the stiffness of the tyre which is undeniably the preeminent in two-wheeler sphere market.

Considering performance, Pulsar220 DTSi is going to be the most well behaved devil on two-wheelers. She gets you from 0 to 60kmph in just 3.8 seconds while 0 to 100kmph in 11.1 seconds. Even the dazzling tech laden Yamaha R15 is not capable to come within sniveling distance of the Pulsar 220 DTSi's tail pipe. And yes she reaches 138.5 at high speed. She has added almost 10 plus km from the previous p220.

The riding position still remains unbroken but with even more attentiveness to feature. It gives 42.1kmpl in city while she gives a fantastic mileage 52.9kmpl in highways. Overall it translates into a 44.8kmpl on an average fuel consumption which is really remarkable.

The Pulsar 220 DTSi is equipped great in deal; carbureted form makes 21.04ps at 8500rpm. It is just 1ps more than the previous FI form and the torque is 19.12nm at 7000rpm.

Quick shifts on transmission and the new clutch assists to ride long distance easily without any wavering.

It is priced just 70,000 /- ex-showrooms in New Delhi. Most of the bikers are planning to get a bike which is extremely powerful but compromising themselves to floor with other bikes by pricing. I’m sure that we can see more number of Pulsar 220 DTSi on roads.

Bajaj has again proved a winner in premium segment and keeping direct competition with the new TVS Apache RTR 180, Yamaha R15, Yamaha FZ series, Karizma. Definitely TVS, Yamaha and Hero Honda will face the heat of this aggressive launch from Bajaj.

Ergonomically the Pulsar 220 is the best in class and power and it continues to date since it stroked the Indian roads.

New Bajaj Pulsar 150cc DTS-i UG4 - Review

Bajaj Auto has launched Pulsar 150cc DTS-i UG4 model with cosmetic changes. I did a test drive yesterday. I felt UG4 rocks than UG3 version of p150cc.

The embossed 3D pulsar logo on tank, absolute black treatment in all and tank scoops are visual changes on UG4 model. The other major change is on clutch assembly. Bajaj has modified the clutch plate assembly in UG4 as it is in the classical pulsar. The clutch was very smooth and flexible to operate.

Bajaj Auto has got good feedback for this clutch plate assembly change.

Definitely Pulsar rocks!!!
