looks like a cover for disc ,may be to protect against dust which tends to accumulate over the calipers and disc and makes them squeal everytime the brake is applied.only time will tell whether it works." if WRONG is a T-shirt ; then wearing it inside out doesn't make it RIGHT "

but atleast from the pics !! it looks like its not covering the caliper !! but the disc rotates !! even if the upper part is covered the bottom part is still exposed
may be bajaj knows it better !!

may be its one of those silly concepts like first seen on the xcds wer the number plate was mounted on the mud guard with sought of spring so they can compress and decompress when the shocks moved up and down !! this was done supposedly to lower the faring !!
lets see wats the explanation for this !!
@chickyheart--lol i was jobless man
!! was actually checking out the disc calipers wich wer painted black
!! which ive not seen on any Indian bike !! then ended up seeing this plastic covering
Four wheels is transportation. Two wheels is attitude.

Some off-roading motorcycles have it. Have a look at the TTR!Originally posted by rennycornelius View Postthat thing will hamper disc cooling.The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

So the commuters who are going to buy this discover gonna do offroading?Motocross bikes have disc covers to prevent dust from the disc.I think Bajaj has made this bike for those people who live in places where there is no road!Rain-forest I think!
Good Bike to ride during rain
