Bajaj Cub

The Bajaj Cub was a limited edition release motor scooter from Indian manufacturer Bajaj Auto. A suitable electronic ignition system for scooters was developed and introduced on Bajaj Cub. It was released in 1987 and was quite quickly discontinued. It usually came with a detachable single footrest but an all-round foot-rest was optional. With good maintenance, it gave a mileage of 40 km/L on roads.
This model was discontinued due to the success of its higher powered 4 speed, 150cc model, Bajaj Chetak. The Cub had a 100cc engine, and a smaller wheel diameter compared to the Chetak. The Chetak's bigger engine gave it better pick-up but a lower mileage of fuel.
It was priced at around INR 9500 approx. at the time of its release. In 1991 it costed INR 19000 on road price Bangalore.
