Bajaj Auto has earned ample thankfulness with its one of a kind looking V15, which accompanies the metal produced using India's amazing plane carrying warship INS Vikrant.
On watching the success rate of this motorcycle, Bajaj Auto is now preparing a new model, which will sit in the Vikrant line-up, but below the Bajaj V15.
This new motorcycle is anticipated to be a 125 cc commuter, and it could be named as the Bajaj V125.
While the 100 cc and 110 cc models rule the segment, new-age customers look for more effective motorcycles with attractive and sporty design.
Power source for the Bajaj V125 could be a 124.6 cc single-cylinder, air-cooled DTS-i engine borrowed from Bajaj Discover 125.
Mated to a 5-speed transmission, this engine churns out 11 PS of peak power at 8,000 rpm and 10.8 Nm of peak torque at 5,500 rpm in the Discover.
It also delivers an impressive fuel efficiency of 82.4 kmpl.
Anticipate that the Bajaj V125 will create comparable power and torque yield, while the fuel proficiency is likewise liable to stay comparative.
The Bajaj V125 could share its brake and suspension system with the bigger sibling V15. The V15 comes with a 240 mm front disc and a 130 mm drum brake at rear.
For suspension duty the upcoming 125 cc motorcycle is likely to get telescopic front fork and gas-charged twin spring loaded hydraulic at rear.
It would run on 18-inch front alloy wheel and 16-inch rear alloy wheels, wrapped in tubeless tyres, just like the V15.
The Bajaj V15 fuses an exceptionally surprising and alluring outline. Its littler kin, the upcoming V125 is likewise anticipated that would get a comparative outline.
This 125 cc Vikrant would get an imposing front fascia with chrome garnishing around the large headlamp.
It could sport a similar unique-looking instrument console like its bigger brother, but we would love to see a digital meter introduced, which is unavailable in the V15.
The handlebar, seat will be designed in such manner to deliver the rider better control over the machine in heavy traffic, as it is a city-focused commuter.
A masculine fuel tank built with INS Vikrant’s metal bearing the insignia of the aircraft carrier, a removable rear cowl and a large laid-back LED taillight with chrome detailing will give it a sporty and charming look.
It is expected that the upcoming Bajaj V125 will be designed in a similar like V15, only the engine might be different.
New Colour themes could be open to the world as well. The Bajaj V125 could get a price tag around Rs. 56,000. The Bajaj V125 is anticipated to reveal in the country sometime around May-June 2017.
