Our take on this /// Verdict

The Bajaj CT 125X Drum is a robust and practical commuter bike that ticks all the right boxes for those seeking a reliable and affordable ride. My experience with the bike was overwhelmingly positive, thanks to its sturdy build quality, comfortable riding ergonomics, and decent engine performance. The 124cc engine, though not the most refined at high revs, delivers power in a linear manner and has a flat torque curve, making it suitable for both city and highway riding. The suspension, comprising telescopic forks and SNS rear suspension, handles rough roads with ease, although it can feel a bit firm at low speeds. The lack of ABS is a minor drawback, but the Combined Braking System (CBS) does its job well. Overall, the CT 125X Drum is a well-thought-out machine that offers great value for money, making it a strong contender in the 125cc commuter segment.

Price

The Bajaj CT 125X Drum is priced very competitively in the Indian market, starting at Rs 71,354 ex-showroom.

The bikes 11-liter fuel tank also adds to its practicality. I believe this fuel efficiency is a significant selling point, especially in a market where fuel costs are a major concern.

Friday, 26 August 2022 07:11 PM Bajaj has priced the CT 125X Drum competitively, with an ex-showroom price of Rs. 74,016 in Delhi.

I think this pricing is spot on, making the CT 125X Drum an attractive option in its segment.

It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges.
