    Both bikes handle rather well, feeling light, yet confident always, a boon when riding through congested traffic. There’s a 240mm front petal disc, along with 130mm rear drum brake on both bikes, providing good stopping power.

    The Discover 150F and 150S are efficient bikes, proven in a good 45.3kpl returned when tested in real world city riding conditions. This went up to an impressive (for a 150cc bike) 49.2kpl when riding on relatively open highways, where both bikes feel relaxed cruising at high speeds of up to 80kph.

    It’s clear that both the Discover 150F and 150S are designed with practicality and efficiency foremost in mind, a Discover family hallmark from day one. That said, Bajaj has left no stone unturned when it comes to performance - both bikes manage decent acceleration and score high on refinement and smoothness too.

    The 150F looks more upmarket due to the front fairing, whereas the 150S looks a touch more conservative. The Discovers 150F and 150S have us impressed. If you’re looking for powerful commuter bikes to help you with your daily biking requirements, with good practicality, look no further. The 150F or 150S, both make a good choice of motorcycle.
