The world of everyday motorcycles in India is getting exciting because a familiar name is back – the Bajaj Discover 125. After being gone for a while, Bajaj Auto has brought back the popular Discover 125 in 2025. It promises to look good, give great mileage (how far you can go on one tank of fuel), and not cost too much money. This comeback wants to win over people who travel to work every day and want a dependable, stylish, and affordable bike.
Nice Design and Modern Look
The 2025 Bajaj Discover 125 has a new and modern design. It has sharp lines, a nicely shaped fuel tank, and side parts that match in color, making it look lively. A new headlight with built-in LED lights that stay on during the day and a small cover around it make it look more modern. The back light has also been updated, adding to the bike’s good looks. It’s about 2030 mm long, 760 mm wide, and 1087 mm tall, which is a good size for looking good on the road and being easy to move around. It sits 165 mm off the ground, which is useful for riding on city roads.
Saves You Money on Fuel
One of the best things about the Bajaj Discover 125 has always been how little fuel it uses, and the 2025 model keeps that going. The 124.5cc engine (the size of the bike’s power unit) that cools with air and has two spark plugs is made to use very little fuel. Bajaj says it can go 82.4 kilometers on one liter of fuel, but in real life, it will probably be around 60-65 kmpl, and maybe about 55 kmpl when there’s a lot of traffic. With an 8-liter fuel tank, you can probably ride for about 480 to 659 km before needing to fill up. This makes it great for going to work every day and for people who want to save money. The engine makes 11 PS of power (how strong it is) at 7500 rpm and 11 Nm of torque (how quickly it can accelerate) at 5500 rpm. It has a smooth 5-speed gearbox. The bike can go as fast as about 100 kmph and can go from 0 to 60 km/h in about 7 seconds. The engine also meets the latest pollution rules, showing that Bajaj cares about cleaner air.
Comfortable Ride and Useful Features
The Bajaj Discover 125 is built on a strong but simple frame, which makes the ride comfortable. It has front forks that can move up and down 130 mm and two shock absorbers at the back that can move 110 mm. The distance between the front and back wheels (1305 mm) helps keep it steady. The bike has a digital screen that shows important things like speed, how much fuel is left, and what gear you’re in. Other helpful features include LED lights that stay on during the day so others can see you better, a regular headlight, and a seat with a special pattern so you don’t slip and it’s more comfortable. For safety, it has a braking system that helps you stop more safely, an optional front disc brake (a type of strong brake) along with a regular back brake, and tires that don’t need tubes. It also has a light to tell you if the side stand is down, an electric starter, and wheels made of a light metal. These things make it easier and safer to use.
Price and Different Versions
The 2025 Bajaj Discover 125 comes in two versions: one with a regular brake system and one with a better brake system that includes a disc brake at the front. The starting price in Delhi for the regular brake version is ₹73,855, and the version with the disc brake costs ₹78,704. The total price you pay when you buy it (including other charges) in Delhi is expected to be between ₹82,000 and ₹87,000. Because it’s priced well, the Discover 125 wants to compete with other bikes in the same class, like the TVS Sport, Honda Shine 100, Hero HF Deluxe, and Bajaj Platina 100. It comes in colors like Black with Red and Black with Blue.
Things to Keep in Mind
While the Bajaj Discover 125 has a lot of good things, there are a few things to think about. It doesn’t have a 6-speed gearbox, and the engine might feel a little weak on highways (it’s better for city riding). The real mileage you get might also be less if you’re often stuck in traffic. Also, it’s mostly made for a comfortable ride for two people, not three. Some people might find the suspension a bit bouncy on bad roads, and the plastic parts around the screen could maybe be better quality.
Who Should Think About Buying the Bajaj Discover 125?
The 2025 Bajaj Discover 125 is a great bike for people who travel to work every day and care most about saving fuel and not spending too much money. Its features like the digital screen and comfortable seat make it good for riding in cities. The fact that it sits higher off the ground (165 mm clearance) is also helpful for city roads.
In Conclusion
The return of the Bajaj Discover 125 in 2025 is good news for the everyday motorcycle market. With its good looks, great mileage, useful features, and affordable price, it could become popular again for people who want a reliable and cheap bike for daily use. While it has a few small downsides, its strengths in saving fuel and being affordable make it a strong choice in its class. If you’re thinking about buying one, it’s a good idea to check with your local Bajaj dealers for the latest prices and if it’s available.
