About the Reviewer

Ridden for (If Owned)

0-5000 km

Got mileage of

55 kmpl

I would start the review from my bike delivery experience....

the experience was good but the sales man was not that much interested in selling his bike ..Though the bike is high in demand these days ....

The bike feel really good in riding ....

However the sales man told me his own review that the bike keeps getting jerks while riding .... I also felt the same from the very first day.... Yes it takes jerks when you low down the throttle on speed breakers sometimes.... The bike is amazingly heavy in weight... However you will not feel this weight while riding on high speed... On high speed it is damn smooth ...However when you slow down the throttle after reaching 80+ ..You will feel the sound of the silencer really meaty and beefy type ... On 40 to 50 kmpl ...Sometime bike vibrates too much .... But when i take it more than 50kmpl it feels smooth again .... The breaking system is good enough but the drum breaks of the front tyre are not much good .... You may feel heaviness while breaking and using the front breaks... About the mileage ...I am using the bike since 1 month ...And i am getting around 52 to 55 kmpl ...Riding in both highway and city conditions ...Only on highway until the first service you will get more than 55kmpl.... When i ride the bike on high way on more than 70kmpl ... I feel the bike really stable and unlike the other bikes like shine, passion and glamour you feel more comfortable on high speeds as well comparing to other bikes.. About the pillion comfort... The pillion feels more comfortable then rider with the use the new back rest..Yes i got the back rest in the bike..??... I am 20 years old ...Bought the bike with my own money and i feel really proud to have this bike with me ..I commute daily 25 to 30 kms. . One more thing that you may feel regret some first days after getting the bike ...That you should have purchased any other bike like pulsar 135 ls , shine or glamour ..But believe me ..Those bike are not this much durable not even then have better riding experience than this ...Also you will feel those bikes in riding that you are riding 125cc but if you trust me ...The bajaj v12 is not a bike that feels like 125cc capacity ...When you ride it ...You feel like you are riding a mini avenger or bullet sometimes ....But even on the 5th gear you would feel that there is the need of 6th gear as the bike makes to much sound from the silencer on high speed... However the engine feels smooth on high speed..... So. Finally if you like to ride bike roughly then this bike is not made for you ...Better you go with 135ls or honda shine as their pick up is much better than this bike ... I purchased the bike for rs67000 gave 27000 as down and 4300 per month is my emi ... For 12 months ... And i am happy with the bike never feel regret .... Today i am going to get the bike serviced as its has run more than 600kms and its been 39 days when i purchased the bike ...Have a great day ahead ..Bye

Tips for Bajaj V12

Do not ride it on high speed regularly... Maintain the elegance of the bike.

  • Unique & limited edition one of a kind bike. You will fall in love.

    Pankaj Kapoor

    It's a mini bullet. It sounds very very good, you can feel it's beats when you ride, like bullet. Actually, I was planning for bullet but finally ended up with v12, which was a perfect decision for me. That's why I have started the review with this comparison. The bike is so so beautiful, it's one of a kind bike, and icing over the cake is it no more in production, that means limited edition bike made with vikrant's metal, our Indian pride. Rest the bikes design and comfort is awesome.

    I have a bajaj v12 bike from january 2018.Superb bike for city rides and long tour's.First thing , it is not sport bike u can say it bullet. Best sound heavy bike, speed. When you will run it feels like awesome.I love my bike. Average is also very good service charges very less. If you want a bike with low budget u can choose it but remember it's like cruise bike so don't compare with any other sports bike.

  • Its just love!!!!

    Harish Ahire

    If you are looking for a bike which is compatible for every ride...Then this is the one... Ride it on highway... City...Or off road. It'll stand aggressively.. Looks are damn good as it has great torque in 125cc segment. Mileage is about 52-55 kmpl in city and on highway 58-60 kmpl approximately. Great comfort no back pain. I've driven her from mumbai to banglore in two days around 800km. Seriously no aching in my arms. Feeling lucky to have her in my garage.. Love her.

    The bike very good in every aspects. Their is no problem at all. Good mileage, performance, grip, weight etc. Fulfill every criteria for a customer. The engine sounds and the exhaust sound is much more like ( bullet )royal enfield. You have to do servicing timely for good mileage. Enjoy this amazing experience now.

  • Don't by v12 &v15

    5 years ago


    Dany Krishan

    I recommend to do not by v12 and v15. I have faced issues of engine,chain chakkar, self start etc. Common problems like oil leakage from engine,chain sound,engine vibration and sound, jerk from engine is found in all vikrant bikes. I self experienced at service center.If we purchase bajaj bikes we need to replace most of parts of bikes within 2 years, so it's too expensive for us.

  • Beauty with no brains

    5 years ago


    Ankit Dhasmana

    I have been riding this bike for more than two years. Before buying, please consider my review, it will be helpful for you all. i have completed 22000 plus kms in this bike. I got attracted with its looks which is totally different than other 125cc bikes in the market. So, i bought it. Its beautiful, muscular and unique. Definitely, it has eye catching looks. And then there is ins vikrant legacy. I must say bajaj made a fool of the people in the name of vikrant. I am going to divide my review in two parts - positives and negatives. First, positive aspects of the bike : 1. Riding position is very comfortable. 2. Suspension for rider is good for small bumps, normal bad roads. 3. Wider tyre gives good stability on the roads. 4. Unique design, eye catching. 5. Also bassy sound gives a different identity to this bike.Now, negative aspects of the bike: 1. Poor, horrible and pathetic torque, just pathetic, you can not overtake in dense traffic conditions, poorer than other 125cc or 110cc bikes. 2. So much vibration, whether its in low rpm or high rpm, lot of vibration, after 60 kmph, it vibrates like hell, forget riding with pillion. 3. Poor drum brakes, front suspension is poor, even rear suspension is not good at all and no tubeless tyres. 4. Forget riding with pillion, worst pillion seat. Super uncomfortable, narrow and pillion tends to slide down while sitting, pillion have to feel each and every little bump on the road while sitting. Its horrible seat. 5. Poor mileage, 40-45 kmph. 6. Rear suspension makes you feel that air pressure tyre is low, sometimes you feel rear tyre is skidding but not, its just pathetic arrangement of parts in this bike. 7. Poor headlight, poor brake pads and engine oil works for 1500-1800 km only, after then you feel performance declines. Final verdict, don't buy this bike.

  • Getting this bike is pain inside your head - mental torture everyday

    5 years ago


    Rajiv Gandhi

    1.At first look, you may be persuaded by its look, beat sound similar to bullet. Hence i bought without considering the previous reviews2.My riding experience became worst within a month. After reaching office, if i leave the bike idle till evening and self start/kick start in the evening, i will not be able to do it without pulling of the choke. - so bike has starting trouble issue all 364 days 3.During night time, you cannot see what is in front of you even with high beam on due to the fact of headlight design. In frustration i took my wife's scooty for a week. I found amazingly clearer road view during night.During one of my long drive i drove on a bad road which has many pitfalls and because of this poor illumination i almost not missed all the pitfalls. - so very poor headlamp lighting will there for all 364 days 4.Very important issue is i raised 10 times complaints and it has never been solved is the gear issue. Interestingly the senior mechanic gave a feedback that no rider will do. I must release clutch each time while bringing down the gear to neutral. Most of time i end up stuck in traffic or high rise to gear lever not sitting properly. - so very very poor gear handling for all 364 days. 5.Surprisingly within 3 months of buying, battery failure happened twice. Fortunately i was covered with warranty - so battery issue for 90 days 6.Even if you remove the back seat cover and convert it to single rider drive to pillion rider drive, the pillion rider will have to grab the driver tightly in order to avoid falling down. - so poor seating design 7.And at last if you accommodate the pillion rider, in speed breakers or pitfalls you can hear the rear suspension colliding each other. At first you may think there is insufficient air in rear wheel. But it is due to poor suspension 8.Handle bar is twisted a little further towards the rider. So in city traffics your wrist and palm may give a bitter pain to handle the bike weight. If you still decided to buy this bike, good luck with the all the pain areas stated above.

    Amaran

    A good bike, light in weight, good power125cc, DLR, 45 to 50 km/l, with fuel level indicator and gear and neutral position indicator. Ideal for college students and office-going and factory workers. Easy maintenance, ride comfort with broad seat. No problem experienced so far. Getting good service by Bajaj workshops. Getting reliable spares through dealerships with affordable pricing for spares and service.

  • Unique & limited edition one of a kind bike. You will fall in love.

    3 years ago


    Pankaj Kapoor

    It's a mini bullet. It sounds very very good, you can feel it's beats when you ride, like bullet. Actually, I was planning for bullet but finally ended up with v12, which was a perfect decision for me. That's why I have started the review with this comparison. The bike is so so beautiful, it's one of a kind bike, and icing over the cake is it no more in production, that means limited edition bike made with vikrant's metal, our Indian pride. Rest the bikes design and comfort is awesome.

    I have a bajaj v12 bike from january 2018.Superb bike for city rides and long tour's.First thing , it is not sport bike u can say it bullet. Best sound heavy bike, speed. When you will run it feels like awesome.I love my bike. Average is also very good service charges very less. If you want a bike with low budget u can choose it but remember it's like cruise bike so don't compare with any other sports bike.

  • Its just love!!!!

    4 years ago


    Harish Ahire

    If you are looking for a bike which is compatible for every ride...Then this is the one... Ride it on highway... City...Or off road. It'll stand aggressively.. Looks are damn good as it has great torque in 125cc segment. Mileage is about 52-55 kmpl in city and on highway 58-60 kmpl approximately. Great comfort no back pain. I've driven her from mumbai to banglore in two days around 800km. Seriously no aching in my arms. Feeling lucky to have her in my garage.. Love her.

    The bike very good in every aspects. Their is no problem at all. Good mileage, performance, grip, weight etc. Fulfill every criteria for a customer. The engine sounds and the exhaust sound is much more like ( bullet )royal enfield. You have to do servicing timely for good mileage. Enjoy this amazing experience now.

  • Don't by v12 &v15

    5 years ago


    Dany Krishan

    I recommend to do not by v12 and v15. I have faced issues of engine,chain chakkar, self start etc. Common problems like oil leakage from engine,chain sound,engine vibration and sound, jerk from engine is found in all vikrant bikes. I self experienced at service center.If we purchase bajaj bikes we need to replace most of parts of bikes within 2 years, so it's too expensive for us.

  • Beauty with no brains

    5 years ago


    Ankit Dhasmana

    I have been riding this bike for more than two years. Before buying, please consider my review, it will be helpful for you all. i have completed 22000 plus kms in this bike. I got attracted with its looks which is totally different than other 125cc bikes in the market. So, i bought it. Its beautiful, muscular and unique. Definitely, it has eye catching looks. And then there is ins vikrant legacy. I must say bajaj made a fool of the people in the name of vikrant. I am going to divide my review in two parts - positives and negatives. First, positive aspects of the bike : 1. Riding position is very comfortable. 2. Suspension for rider is good for small bumps, normal bad roads. 3. Wider tyre gives good stability on the roads. 4. Unique design, eye catching. 5. Also bassy sound gives a different identity to this bike.Now, negative aspects of the bike: 1. Poor, horrible and pathetic torque, just pathetic, you can not overtake in dense traffic conditions, poorer than other 125cc or 110cc bikes. 2. So much vibration, whether its in low rpm or high rpm, lot of vibration, after 60 kmph, it vibrates like hell, forget riding with pillion. 3. Poor drum brakes, front suspension is poor, even rear suspension is not good at all and no tubeless tyres. 4. Forget riding with pillion, worst pillion seat. Super uncomfortable, narrow and pillion tends to slide down while sitting, pillion have to feel each and every little bump on the road while sitting. Its horrible seat. 5. Poor mileage, 40-45 kmph. 6. Rear suspension makes you feel that air pressure tyre is low, sometimes you feel rear tyre is skidding but not, its just pathetic arrangement of parts in this bike. 7. Poor headlight, poor brake pads and engine oil works for 1500-1800 km only, after then you feel performance declines. Final verdict, don't buy this bike.

  • Getting this bike is pain inside your head - mental torture everyday

    5 years ago


    Rajiv Gandhi

    1.At first look, you may be persuaded by its look, beat sound similar to bullet. Hence i bought without considering the previous reviews2.My riding experience became worst within a month. After reaching office, if i leave the bike idle till evening and self start/kick start in the evening, i will not be able to do it without pulling of the choke. - so bike has starting trouble issue all 364 days 3.During night time, you cannot see what is in front of you even with high beam on due to the fact of headlight design. In frustration i took my wife's scooty for a week. I found amazingly clearer road view during night.During one of my long drive i drove on a bad road which has many pitfalls and because of this poor illumination i almost not missed all the pitfalls. - so very poor headlamp lighting will there for all 364 days 4.Very important issue is i raised 10 times complaints and it has never been solved is the gear issue. Interestingly the senior mechanic gave a feedback that no rider will do. I must release clutch each time while bringing down the gear to neutral. Most of time i end up stuck in traffic or high rise to gear lever not sitting properly. - so very very poor gear handling for all 364 days. 5.Surprisingly within 3 months of buying, battery failure happened twice. Fortunately i was covered with warranty - so battery issue for 90 days 6.Even if you remove the back seat cover and convert it to single rider drive to pillion rider drive, the pillion rider will have to grab the driver tightly in order to avoid falling down. - so poor seating design 7.And at last if you accommodate the pillion rider, in speed breakers or pitfalls you can hear the rear suspension colliding each other. At first you may think there is insufficient air in rear wheel. But it is due to poor suspension 8.Handle bar is twisted a little further towards the rider. So in city traffics your wrist and palm may give a bitter pain to handle the bike weight. If you still decided to buy this bike, good luck with the all the pain areas stated above.
