If a Platina can do it, (ask Mooed, 800kms.in a day, he has been to Bangalore&Mysore also on it) I don't see any reason why a Discover cannot. -
Does this mean that Yamaha 125cc cannot perform good on long tourings...Originally posted by pinku.narendra View PostLeave a comment:

I also touched 115 Km/h on it in that trip with karizma....
I love it and I feel very sad as I sold it for upgrading my bike to Royal Enfield Thunder bird.
I love you Discover.....Leave a comment:

I use the discover 135 for touring, it has no issues at all. if you are using mineral oil, switching to a semi synthetic oil will let it cruise at 80-90 without over heating. the only problem with the discover is the seat is too narrow so you would need a break after 60-90 mins of riding.Leave a comment:

Its not the bike that matters but the rider. I have seen people taking puny 100cc bikes all the way upto Leh-Ladakh as well.
Ride the 125cc bike in the market first before u make your decision.Leave a comment:

i have done 400 kms round trip in a day on my discover..The bikes did it fine..the bike is very capable at touring but the engine feels very strained at high speeds.. but it can cruise at 70-80kmph easy.. 1500 should be no issue at allLeave a comment:

get the Gladiator (not ss/rs unless you are okay with little lower handlebars than the original ones).
The Disco 125 could have made it to the list but it is not sold anymore.Leave a comment:

The only problem faced was strained engine after 100 odd kms, verdict is simple, ride the bike at no more than 80% of max speed and enjoy the ride, Discover is a delightful bike with very relaxed riding position!
