125 cc shootout

normally_crazy · 8th September 2004, 16:30

the bajaj discover thread was the basis of this poll.

whats ur choice ?

ambition isnt considered as it has a 135 cc engine.

i vote for the fazer

Rtech · 8th September 2004, 17:03

Fazer for me too.

Although the Discover seems nice, I've had my taste of Bajaj quality and will never return back.

The Yamaha appears to have much better build qulity, I really like the styling, except for that bikini fairing, which I would toss and put a round headlight in its place.

fazer for me, i love the styling. as rtech said, id remove the fairing and put in a normal round headlamp in its place.

satish_appasani · 8th September 2004, 19:11

Fazer for me as no Hero Hondas were available...

shravan316 · 8th September 2004, 19:44

None for me..... i'll wait for the HH guys to launch their 125cc bike. Then we'll see

i chose the discover, bajaj quality has improved over time (like tata) expect for elim, and since i am happy with an bajaj product would go in for the same

i think TVS victor 125 needs some attention guyz. in my opinion, the only black mark it has is lack of the 5th gear. wat do u think?

Aditya · 14th September 2004, 04:11

I'll go with the Fazer - fine styling!

normally_crazy · 14th September 2004, 12:05

its so sad that the wind hasnt got even one vote.

this is one damn neat machine. has superb acceleration , and lots of power to keep u going. the handling is up there with the best of the class and the FE is good too. build quality is typical bajaj..

i shud know , i have ridden one for 2 months and boy was i impressed !!!!!
cheers

Ditto dude. The Wind125 is an excellently built bike, mainly because it is Bajaj's primary export vehicle and has been made with very high standards. It has a great power plant, extremely smooth, fantastic handling...Bajaj got it right on that one. Infact, I think its the best vehicle made my Bajaj to date. A very impressive contender indeed.

just saw the Discover , hate the looks , no matter what engine it has .
Its a sure flop.

Also , Bajaj is discontinuing the Wind and 115 for Indian market

speedsatya · 11th October 2004, 00:43

the base discover has 55/60w bulbs.
the looks are good.has DTSi.the oick up and FE are also okay.i did not like the gear shift .
so when compared with the baove mentioned bikes,for a change i vote for a bajaj.
