Hey dudes,
I purchased Gladiator DX early this month and am dissatisfied with its pickup. Its doesn't seem to be 125cc engine, considering the poor pickup. The pickup is quite similar to Splendor or a scooter. The poor pickup may boost its mileage but that hardly matters. I've read reviews saying Gladiator has a good pickup....may be false !
One of my friend has Bajaj Discover and I personally feel Discover has a better pickup than mine.
Is this normal with all Gladiators or is it a problem with my bike ?? Also after running some 9-10 Kms, when the bike is rested, there is some "tic tic tic tac tac tic" noise from the engine....is this normal...I haven't heard of this before !!
The gear shift is not very smooth, particularly it gets stuck at 2nd gear while downshifting from 5th gear to stop at traffic signals. May be this will get smoother as time passes.
Share your trouble with Gladiator or atleast lemme know if these are serious concerns or just will fade away with time.
