The Discover 135 Sports may have found a 'sweet spot' in engine displacement that has been overlooked since?

An interesting idea, but I think flexible engine management has helped to make exact displacement less important. Nowadays, modern 125s can probably hit the old 135’s performance when you need it.
Did Bajaj miss an opportunity by discontinuing the Discover 135 Sports?
29 January 2025 07:48
Huge missed opportunity. For good reason, people loved the 135. With a little clever marketing and updates, it could have been positioned as the thinking rider’s sport bike alternative to flashy, impractical sport bikes.
Was the Discover 135 Sports a design ahead of its time?
29 January 2025 07:48
Definitely ahead of its time. Exactly what many riders are looking for today is focus on usable power and efficiency. Bajaj got the 'practical performance' concept down before it was cool.
Could the Discover 135 Sports have become the adventure tourer platform?
29 January 2025 07:48
An interesting idea, but I suspect the engine would have been the limiting factor. Low end grunt and durability that the 135 motor might not have been able to deliver is what adventure bikes need.
Is the Bajaj Discover 135 Sports the ultimate sleeper bike?
29 January 2025 07:48
Nope, it's pretty good but labeling it a sleeper is a bit much. It would be left in the dust by any modern 150cc bike. For its time, it was good, but let’s not get carried away with all the nostalgia.
