Q. KTM DUKE 250 VS BAJAJ DOMINAR 400, Which is best and reliable long lasting machine. Only for long ride and touring purposes.

Dominar is the best, to keep it short. To explain it, I have rode KTM Duke 390 for quite a long rides and I own Dominar. The main difference is that Dominar during the long rides and tours, gives you immense confidence because of the stability even at 130+ kmph. Though Duke has a lot of power and acceleration because of the light weighted body and torque, it doesn't give you the same confidence of stability just like the Dominar. And I clocked a trip of 1343 km in 3 days during which, the bike (Dominar) cruised smoothly even on the worst roads, but never gave a trouble, not even for a second.

Dominar is having a very nice machine which doesn't heat much from the Duke 250 and it will even help you for long ride because the engine doesn't gets heated too much and it is little bit much comfort from the Duke 250 in matter of seat

Long Rides Dominaar for sure, because the the way the chassis is designed , doesn't put pressure on your shoulders
