Built around Bajaj's sport motorcycle platform, the 2014 Bajaj Discover 125 pairs a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 15.4 HP (11.3 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.8 Nm (8 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 123.6 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Discover 125 measures 118 kg (260 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.66 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,305 mm (51.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 100 km/h (62 mph).
