But did the Discover 150S have the best headlight in its segment?

Safety and one of the most important features of a bike is lighting, particularly since riders often end up on poorly lit Indian roads. The Bajaj Discover 150S was famous for its powerful headlight, which some riders say was the best in its class. As a result, there have been debates as to how important good lighting on motorcycles is, especially in the 150cc budget segment. Others think that the Discover got away with it because its headlight was so much better than the competition's, and others think it just had a better headlight. Broader issues of safety, the history of motorcycle lighting technology, and whether or not manufacturers should consider including advanced lighting features in more affordable models are also discussed. It also probes into rider preferences – would they buy a bike with a powerful headlight regardless of other features, and how much does a powerful headlight contribute to purchasing decisions?
