Bajaj Auto Ltd. (BAL) has launched probably the most affordable 125cc bike available in India- CT125X. The newly launched Bajaj CT125X looks similar to the existing CT110 X bike; the bike gets the same old round headlight with a cowl integrated with LED strip. The bike comes with minimal bodywork that is adequate for a proper commuter bike. The new CT 125X also comes featured with a headlight guard, engine crash guard and a luggage rack at the rear.
The newly launched Bajaj CT 125X comes equipped with 125cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine with a power output of 10bhp and 11Nm of peak torque. The 125cc motor is mated to a 5-speed transmission gearbox. The bike is suspended on conventional telescopic forks upfront and a dual gas-charged rear shock absorber. The braking duty is assigned to an optional 240mm front disc and a 130mm rear drum brake setup. The bike rides on 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 80/100 front and 100/90 rear tubeless tyres.The bike will compete with the likes of Hero Super Splendor and the Honda Shine. The company has priced the bike at Rs 71,354 (ex-showroom) and it is available in three color options- Green and Black, Red and Black as well as Blue and Black.
