Bajaj 'V' commuter bike teased; reveal on Feb 1, 2016
Bajaj has had its new commuter motorcycle on test for a while now, with spy shots giving away details like the cruiser-derived design inspirations. Bajaj has now teased the motorcycle and has revealed the bike's name as the Bajaj 'V'. The official reveal takes place on Feb 1, ahead of the 2016 auto expo.
The unusual name has been derived from India's first aircraft carrier - the INS Vikrant. The connection to the battleship isn't limited to the name alone, as Bajaj claims the 'V' has been made out of melted scrap metal taken from the INS Vikrant.
The teaser images of the V reveal details like a front disc brake, the long seat, alloy wheels with five dual-spokes, café-racer like front end, telescopic front forks and twin-rear shock absorbers. The motorcycle is believed to be powered by a 150cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine mated to a 5-speed gearbox.
Bajaj is likely to place the V in between the Discover and Pulsar.
