Q. Which is better Bajaj Discover 125 or Honda Shine SP. Discover mileage is great but body style not perfect and some year after body are loose. Shine mileage is fewar then discover but all over Shine SP is best.
  • Ok Rahul . I will try to clear your doubt as I am a Bajaj discover user . So first of all Bajaj discover provides good features and mileage too . But the body is of very cheap quality , i.e. , that is not for users who use more than 1-2 yr . But on the other hand if we see Honda shine SP , the best part is that all original and genuine parts are available in all bike repair shops . And a good service too . And the bike is also for tough and heavy riders . So shine SP can be the nice choice for you...
  • I use discover 125 I feel that is the worst bike in my life never used to discover never by discover I had a very bad experience buying discover I will get mileage from 40-45 I suggest you never go for discover
  • I am using discover from the past 14 years. It has been very reliable. But I have heard from others that discover quality went down from 2010. My younger brother has a stunner which probably has the same engine as Shine. It has been a great bike for the past 10 years. I believe Shine is a better option than discover

Q. Which is best - CT100 OR DISCOVER 125?
  • There is a hiearchy in bikes with the unspoken understanding that the one with the bigger displacement has bigger share of power on offer as well as better features. E.g. 4 speed V/s 5 speed gear box.However we also have to be the judge. If I am mostly a town rider, I will never have the opportunity to engage 5th gear. So each vehicle represents value at their respective price point.
  • CT 100 is 102 CC bike where Discover 125 is 124CC bike, Obviously Discover got much power & Torque If you want much mileage go to CT 100 OR want power go to Discover 125 (but it is discontinued now)
  • CT100 is most affordable for budget friendly people for rural areas road conditions while Discover 125 is mostly suitable for day to day city ride, ocassion long routes.

    Middle class 

    For a middle class and to a person who lives in very much populated cities like bengaluru, Mumbai etc this bike provides best mileage with comfort of riding.Pickup is nominal as according to its category, Power is as expected from a 100-125cc category bikes.Best thing is the mileage and the comfort while riding it does provides when it comes to worst things its less powered bike and for a crazy drivers it doesn't goes well.The services are pretty promising and maintenance cost is as less as the bike costs.Overall it's a good bike to consider in 100-125cc category bike.

    The Hero Electric Photon has lit my City passages with its electric frugality and Fashionable two wheeler. Its electric motor offers a quiet and ready ride, making it a useful Independence for megacity Roads. The Photon's current features and appealing aesthetics append to an pleasurable ride experience. While advancements in range could enhance its trip chops, the Photon's drive to offering a Fashionable and ecofriendly electric scooter is estimable. Hero Electric's seat on mingling aesthetics with electric mobility is punctuated in the Photon, giving away druggies a various and sustainable Independence for City trip.

    Decent build quality 

    It provides decent build quality and good fit and finishing with good storage space. It gives good riding range and performance and well made riding and handling. It is very easy to handle and with right tyre size and reliable braking and also has user friendly features. This electric scooter gives around 60 km per charge range and the top speed is around 42 kmph but hardware should be improved. It is elegant and beautiful looking electric scooter but has low ground clearance. It is very easy to handle in traffic but feels dated.
