Our summary, not a quoteReported by bikepunjab.com

Price, service, resale and roads — here

  • Resale value for this model in the Nepali second-hand market is significantly lower than the Pulsar or Shine series
  • While engine parts are interchangeable with some Discover models, specific XCD body panels are scarce in local shops
  • The suspension setup is often cited as being too soft for the uneven road conditions found in semi-urban Nepal
  • The Bajaj XCD 125 is not currently on sale in Nepal, so it has no published Nepal price or confirmed Nepal launch date.
  • Nepal buyers comparing 125 cc motorcycles commonly weigh mileage, maintenance cost, parts availability, service coverage, pillion comfort, ground clearance and resale value.
  • Because the XCD 125 is an old discontinued model, a Nepal used-bike purchase depends heavily on the individual bike's battery, electric starter, wiring, clutch, tyres and parts condition.

Real published text, but nobody said it in the first person — so it is never shown as a quote.

This bit doesn't carry over

Owners abroad rate this bike's resale, warranty and service cost on their own market's terms. None of that applies here — different duty, dealer network and used market. It is shown separately and never counted above.
