Is modifying the Bajaj Discover 100M for better performance actually worth it or is it a waste of money?

I’ve seen some crazy Discover builds with big bore kits and all. Yeah, they’re faster, but the reliability just goes out the window. Not a daily commuter, not worth it.

The best 'mod' I ever did was changing to synthetic oil. Smoother engine and slightly better mileage. Small changes can have an effect.

Last month my Discover 100M hit 1.2 lakh km and is running like a champ. Just normal oil changes and normal maintenance. Can't kill this thing!

Bulletproof? No, more like it survives with battle scars. I'm at 80k km and already had to change the chain set twice. Decent bike, but not invincible.

Everything’s about how you handle it. At 50k my cousin thrashed his and it died. At 90k, it's smooth sailing and I baby mine. Maintenance is key!

Overhyped for sure. I had constant issues with the electrical system on mine. After 2 years I sold it and got a Honda. Much happier now.

It's not bulletproof, I'd say it's tough. Overall mine's been reliable but the suspension needed work at around 70k km. Still, great value for money.

I was a mechanic and these bikes have come in with stupid miles on them. Parts are cheap and they're simple to fix. Not perfect, but definitely above average reliability.

For 6 years now my dad has been using one for his milk delivery business. It’s that thing that has been driven around on rural roads and keeps going. That’s pretty impressive if you ask me.
So does the Bajaj Discover 100M's "DTS-i" technology really make a difference?

I honestly believe it's mostly hype. My friend's Hero Splendor gets decent mileage but not as good as my Discover.

I have owned single and twin spark Bajaj bikes. I get about 5-7 km/l more and the DTS-i definitely feels much smoother. It's subtle, but it's there.

As a former engineering student, I can tell you that the theory behind DTS i is solid. In the real world, so many things impact mileage it's difficult to separate it out.

It's not just about mileage. It starts up easily even on cold mornings I think the DTS-i helps with that. All in all, it just feels more refined.

I call BS on the whole thing. That’s just Bajaj’s way of justifying a higher price tag. Fancy ignition systems don’t matter nearly as much as regular maintenance.

The difference in smoothness is night and day compared to what I have come from, an old Yamaha. I can't say if it's all down to DTS-i, but something's working!

People expect too much, I think. It's a step up, not a revolution. When you're commuting daily every little bit helps.
Is the Bajaj Discover 100M really the 'King of Mileage' or just hype?
29 January 2025 07:23
It's definitely not just hype. I’ve been riding my Discover 100M for over 2 years now, and I get 75-80 km/l consistently in mixed city highway riding. It's not the claimed 84 km/l, but it's still pretty damn efficient. All you need to do is ride sensibly and obey maintenance.

Marketing hype for sure. So, I bought one based on those mileage claims and I'm lucky if I get 65 km/l. It may be able to hit them in perfect lab conditions, but in the real world riding, it just isn’t happening. Bajaj is exaggerating to sell more bikes.

It's a bit of both. For real, the Discover 100M is truly very fuel efficient, but those 84 km/l claims are definitely a stretch. I would call it the "Prince of Mileage" — good, but not quite as good as they say.

I think people are missing the point. Even if it doesn’t hit 84 km/l, it’s still one of the most fuel efficient bikes in its class. It is often better than other 100cc bikes when you compare it. What matters is that, not that it meets some arbitrary marketing number.
