    Some quick info please from the experts & owner,

    1. As it comes as tubed tyre, Is it possible to fit tubeless Tyre in the stock rim ? I mean direct fit without any mod ?

    2. Is this bike got a pass light switch ?

    3. What is the average (meaning most people get) fuel efficiency ? Not ripped condition....highway & city mixed driving.

    4. Any major/minor glitches like starting problem,paint peeling from engine,not up-to the mark build,chain rusting or any other parts etc etc ?

    5. How was the seat for driver & pillion comfort ?

    Thanks in advance.

    1. I have no idea

    2. Yes.. It has passlight switch.

    3. was getting 59kmpl before first service. After 1st service i am getting around 62kmpl

    4. Break light was not working and it was fixed in first service. Sometimes i do get false neutrals.. don't know whether this is because of a technical glitch or my riding style causing this..

    5. Rider seat is very much comfortable. seat and handle bars are so well placed that you won't get back ache. Even though pillion seat is elevated, it is also very comfortable.

      Completed over 110 Kms on the bike within two weeks.

      I absolutely love the seat for driver.. its really comfortable and mini mono-shock you can take on a bumpy road with ease.

        My FieRy BeasT!

        Hey! Guys,

        recently after studying Indian two wheeler market, I came up with buying a Bajaj Discover 125 ST.

        I ran to showroom in evening n was searching for any show bike but for my bad luck bike was out of stock!

        i asked him the OTR price n other stuffs and to my luck 1 Discover ST came for servicing

        i ask d owner to give me a test ride.....switched d keys ON..n he came in Life!

        those awesome roaring was damn damn awesome...seems competing pulsar 135..:P

        i took around 5 km long test ride....i went through market area n more..pick up was always good!

        i returned and immediately booked my Discover ST!

        i earlier though of going for pulsar but after riding this n hearing the specs I omitted the choice

        after waiting for 10 long days i got a call in afternoon dat my beast is waiting for me..

        i ran with my friend,,,,n der was my Bike!

              Did anybody manage to fix a tachometer to this bike ?

              And more mileage figures would be great. Around 60 puts it in the Discover 150 zone right ? Or is it higher ?

                  Congrats. I have also got the same color. Still dont have time to write a review.
                  Luckily you got the bike with eurogrip tires(these are also not good, but better than the kenda tires. The new ones are getting kenda tires). I have crossed 650+ kms in a month. Do you have any problem in getting the gear to 4th from 5th? Remember dont brake hard on mud surface, the bike skids easily due to eurogrip tires.

                  Ride safe!

                    Congrats to all the owners. I must say, for its class it's quiet powerful and looks good. Can anybody tell me what kind of Choke mechanism is there?

                      i suppose u can ask your dealer and make sure he puts in eurogrip and not kenda or tvs shrichakra....anyways the rear tyres are quite skiny and a little fatter tyres would have helped...if you can dump the stock tyres and get mrf zappers the size bigger than this or the ones on discover 150 or p135

                      not an owner but read it somewhere that it has normal pull out choke and not the autochoke

                      decent mileage...should improve after the first service...i kinda expected more considerng the mileage of the discover 125....55-60 does indeed put it in the discover 150 league

                          Thanks vicedens2002!
                          I am not having any problem in gear shifting but i am having problem with false neutral

                          can you please differentiate between kinda tyres and eurogrip tyres

                            Thanks for fulfilling my request. The exhaust note sounds to be very sporty. I expect that the recorded version sounds exactly the same as the actual one.

                                Today I was very happy while returning home...a group of pulsarian's where standing on road side,,,,everybody thought i am on a pulsar,,,bt wen i passed by they saw discover written on it!
                                they followed me till i stopped n they asked have u modified the discover??

                                I told them its the new DISCOVER 125 ST and they were like " Did Bajaj made this Bike ?? "

                                i was laughing as they can't believe its a discover not a pulsar! :P

                                I am waiting for Bajaj to to make a ad. for this( any bajaj guy reading, please take it serious)

                                Note: if u haven't seen discover ST yet in night,,have a glimpse from my display pic.
