[Resolved]  Bajaj Discover 135 Cc With Disc - Ii — regular damage of clutch plates

Hi,
It is all depend on how you drive and take care of your vehicle. I have purchased discover-125 in Apr-2007 and drove 28000KM.. but never changed any part of my vehicle. I do regular servicing of my bike atleast once in a 6 months.

Thanks

Hi This is Kiran from Banalore..I am also facing the clutch plate issues in Bajaj Discover 135 CC.. I will have to change the clutch plates for every 3 months..Previously I thought it is due to my long drive on the bagalore traffic roads.. But I came to know this is an issue in Bajaj Discover 135 CC .. Interesting point here is .we will not get the same problem in all Bajaj Discover models... Only few bikes facing these issues..

Hi Gopal, even though drivers drive pattern effect the wear of clutch plates, your given condition is not about it. When you notice that your clutch plate is wear off, you need to to figure out whether there are any other parts that you need to replace with the clutch plates. I have faced this same problem. Replaces only the clutch plates and pressure plates twice, spending about 2x 3500. Then i have figure out that my mechanic (authorized service center) is not capable of finding the real solution and took the bike (bajaj dts 135) to service center of bajaj agent not authorized service centers.Agent(http://www.dpmco.com/index.php?route=information/category&cat_...⇄ imports the bikes to Sri Lanka(i am from Sri Lanka) They have replace the complete clutch mechanism including some bearings/housing/clutch plates/pressure plates. Cost me Rs.7800 and job done for good(that is after 50, 000km. and some use the original plates until 80, 000km). Its like when you change the spocket, you change both spocket and chain as well(at about 50, 000 km).

i think the most of the authorized service guys are only good for cleaning/oiling/changing oil. They are not very competent on properly diagnose the problem.

Next problem you will get is the bad timing chain, after about 50, 000- 55, 000km. Dont let some incompetent guys to open the engine. Take it to the service center of bajaj agent not authorized service center(unless you know the very good authorized service center)

And also make sure that you are maintaining proper oil level. About 100 ml of oil burnt out for every (nearly) 1000KM. So, you need to fill up same amount every 1000km. Of course need to change the oil every 2500km. If you use Castro oil you can run more distance but need to experiment on that. Reason for this is Castro oil is synthetic.
