USER OPINION

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.

This pricing makes it one of the most affordable 125cc bikes available, undercutting many of its rivals by a significant margin. For the price, you get a feature-packed bike with alloy wheels, tubeless tyres, and a robust build, making it an excellent value-for-money proposition.

Latest Updates
Wednesday, 13 March 2024 03:32 PM The Bajaj CT 125X Drum has recently been praised for its fuel efficiency, with an ARAI-claimed mileage of 59.6 kmpl, making it a viable option for daily commuters in India. 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 01:41 PM Bajaj has priced the CT 125X Drum competitively, with an ex-showroom price of Rs. 74,016 in Delhi. This pricing strategy is aimed at attracting customers who are looking to upgrade from 110cc bikes to 125cc without a significant increase in cost. I think this pricing is spot on, making the CT 125X Drum an attractive option in its segment.
Friday, 26 August 2022 02:12 PM The Bajaj CT 125X Drum features a combined braking system, which enhances safety by applying both front and rear brakes simultaneously. This system, along with the bikes sturdy frame and 17-inch alloy wheels, contributes to its overall safety and stability. I believe this focus on safety is a key factor that will appeal to many potential buyers.
Friday, 26 August 2022 01:46 AM In terms of design, the CT 125X Drum carries a rugged and practical look, similar to its predecessor, the CT 110X. It includes features like a round headlight with a V-shaped LED DRL, fork gaiters, and a single-piece well-cushioned seat. I think the design strikes a good balance between ruggedness and commuter comfort.
Friday, 26 August 2022 09:17 AM The Bajaj CT 125X Drum is powered by a 124.4cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that produces 10.9 PS of power and 11 Nm of torque. The engine is linked to a five-speed manual gearbox, providing a smooth and efficient riding experience. I believe the engines performance is well-suited for urban commuting and occasional long rides.

Hi all, whoever is focused on mileage of this is the best bike for you !! Vast service and spares availability adds on value and advantage. Just change your engine oil at regular intervals, maintain right tyre pressure, periodic servicing of the vehicle. Also, check the density of the petrol while filling. Mostly in 745 likewise if its zero please avoid those bunks. Its good for your bike as well your mileage is concerned. Gives the best vehicle performance for you !! Trust me I am no way linked to company or its promotions. Shared with you all based on my experience. You will thank me for this decision later.
