In fact, the Discover 135 Sports is often overlooked by the flashier bikes, but it’s a surprisingly potent little thing for something that looks as unassuming. But with its peppy engine and nimble handling, some riders swear the little thing is faster on the road than more expensive bikes. It’s up for debate as to whether fans are overhyping its capabilities, or if it’s an underappreciated gem. The bike is light enough and the torquey motor seems to put the bike ahead on city traffic and twisty roads. Still, many are questioning if it has the power to compete with modern alternatives with its dated styling and basic features. Some enthusiasts say the car is a hidden champion with performance and value, while others say nostalgia has clouded judgment about its capabilities today.
