The Platina 125 5-Speed was a limited edition "Platina 125" with 5 Speed gears by Bajaj. The bike was equipped with the same 125cc DTS-i engine mated with 5-speed transmission with the patent "ExhausTech" technology and SNS rear shock absorbers.
Engine
New Platina 125 DTS-Si is slotted with 125 cc engine and adopts next generation technology of DTS SI(Digital Twin Spark Swirl Induction). With the advanced technology Bajaj Platina DTS Si is also equipped with ExhasTEC that ensures better torque even at the lower rpms for superior riding comfort in all road conditions.
Design And Comfort
Slim, short and slightly longer look of the Platina DTS-Si isn't that attention grabbing when compared to other 125cc models like the Honda Stunner.
Ride And Handling
The ride quality is great with the well padded seat and the long distance rides are a stress free affair. The braking system performs well with the drum brakes. It accelerates to 60kph in 8.4 seconds and can hit a top speed of 96kph. While top speed is not the big deal, this new bike rather deals the fuel efficiency instead making it most fuel-efficient bike in India. The MTL tyres are good but better rubber would have done better.
