Bajaj CT 125X Spotted, Launch Soon

A new Bajaj CT 125X has been spotted completely undisguised at a dealer warehouse indicating that it could launch soon. Bajaj already sells the CT 110X and it is not clear yet whether this new model will be a new variant or completely replace the 110X. Let’s take a look at what’s new:

Bajaj CT 125X: What’s new?

The new bike gets a few cosmetic changes over the current model. Firstly, it gets a 125X badging on the side that indicates a displacement of 125cc. It gets a different paint shade of green when compared to the CT 110X. It also gets a new thicker seat with double-stitching. It also gets a USB charging port on the handlebar which its sibling misses out on. Though the 125X badging indicates an engine output of 125cc, we expect it to be slightly below the 125cc mark.

This is because the bike lacks a front disc brake and comes with a drum brake. The government has mandated front disc brakes for two-wheelers with engine displacement above 125cc. Since the bike misses out on a front disc brake, it misses out on the rear disc brake as well. Other than this, there are not many cosmetic changes to the bike when compared to its sibling. The front headlamp with a cover and the plain-looking instrument cluster with a low-fuel indicator are the same. Speaking of the engine, the new motor is expected to be slightly below the 125cc mark.

It will be more powerful than CT 1110x which uses a 115cc mill, which churns out 8.5hp at 7,000rpm and 9.8Nm of torque at 5,000rpm. Though we don’t have any details about the new motor, we can expect it to be shared with the Pulsar 125 since that is the only other 125 cc engine that Bajaj currently has in its stable. The current CT 110X is priced at ₹66,300 ex-showroom and we expect the CT 125X to carry a small premium over this price. Once launched, the new Bajaj CT 125X will go up against the likes of Honda SP125, Hero Super Splendor and TVS Raider.
