Bajaj Dominar 400 Engine User Reviews

Over the span of two and a half year i have covered 32, 000 km on my bike.So i think this would be the right time to speak about the bike.Before going into the details.Let me first address the drawbacks for those who have already developed a fondness for this bike.Cons: 1.Weight: the bikes weight is immediately noticeable as it is considerably heavy, But not like the interceptor 650.Manoeuvring it in the city can be challenging.Requiring extra effort due to its weight.2.Riding position: the riding position is slightly leaning towards the front.This may cause shoulders train, Especially during city rides.3.Fuel efficiency: if fuel consumption concerns you, It will be more practical to consider purchasing a scooter or a splendor.Now let’s get to towards the positive side of the bike.Pros: 1.Power: the bike truly is a beast regarding power.It basically is a d-tuned ktm 390 engine.Its potential becomes evident once you open the throttle.It operates on a league of its own offering an exhilarating experience.Additionally, Due to its weight distribution the bike stays of rounded.I was able to hit a top speed of 156 km/h on the open highway.These are the main pros and cons of the bike.However, There are small things that you will discover and evaluate on your own.In terms of service experience.I’ve had a positive experience in bangalore.Although the spare parts can be bit pricey due to the shared compatibility with the ktm model.It’s important not to compromise on maintenance of your bike.While occasional issues may arise but the overall performance remain satisfactory.The only disappointing aspect is the overall build quality, Being primarily made of fibre, Plastic certain parts me develop a slightly looseness over a period of time.To summarise, There are always better bikes.Launching one after the other in the market just go with what you like.

my hunt for a new bike started two weeks ago. i wanted a bike that was reasonably priced and fun to ride , mileage was not an issue for me as I am not a daily commuter(this is what i thought initially but now i cant resist it taking daily to office)test rides taken before buying dominar 20191. apache rtr 200 4v smooth engine, no vibrations, right balance of performance and comfort2 honda cbr250- lacked modern features, a little pricey3. RE classic 350- showroom experience was best among all the bike brands in India, thumping engine/exhaust , great bike but i was hungry for more power4. yamaha FZ25 - decent bike, smooth engine,nothing to complaint about as such5. wanted to test ride gixxer 250 but was not available at the nearest showroom.6. i ruled out duke 390 as iam not a pro rider and i would have not done justice considering the potential of the bike(but my next bike would definitely be a KTM )6. finally went to bajaj dealership the moment i started the dominar ignition i felt that i have woken up a beast the exhaust note was so good to ears at that very moment my hunt ended and i bought the bike2week/300km review.-i kept the bike under 2.5k-3k rpm and i got 35 kmpl( no heavy traffic during my office commute)- power delivery is linear - bassy exhaust note- bearable vibrations in handle bar,tank and foot pegs- headlamps are the best- secondary display is useless( though bajaj has rolled out ECU update to position gear indicator on primary console.)will update review after 1st serviceupdate: after first service bike feels a bit smoother than before. mileage 25- 32kmpl

Every bike is good, however it is just a match of your requirements against the machine. so my requirements were1. Powerful engine: at 40ps power revving to 8,500 rpm, you will never feel the power is less2. Comfortable riding position: I had plan to use bike for long drives and occasional commute and for this purpose I would surely need a good riding position. Am 6 feet tall and this bike surely is very comfortable and you sit fairly upright with a good riding posture3. Safety and comfort: Dual channel ABS, biggest disc pads in segment, Slipper clutch, USD, Monoshocks, Refined BS6 engine you will feel you are driving a very safe and well planted bike, it did not seem to swerve or you will never hesitate to rev it higher and brake instantly. the bike will just be so composed to bring you to a standstill with no effort at all.4. Latest tech: although the speedo is not comprehensive as KTM. it certainly is not vintage which brings smile to my face. Also the all LED headlamps are a beast, it illuminates even a vanta black road to daylight.5. Service cost: Owned a pulsar all my life.am aware Bajaj costs will be considerably less or moderate when compared to other manufacturers. Also the service interval being 5k Kms, Dominor does deliver for long haul and with few lesser worriesSo if your checklist of bike purchase matches mine do not hesitate to buy this Phenomenally well-made sport tourer by Bajaj!!

From experience perspective, This is one of the best bikes to consider for touring, And in a very reasonable budget.Amazing comfort, No vibrations, Very refined engine and capable of doing decent speeds of around 120kmph comfortably on highways.The best thing about this is the touring capabilities in terms of luggage carrying capacity and setup options, And a very comfortable seat, Enabling to ride for long distances at a stretch.Something that is not very good about it though, Is because of the weight of the bike, It compromises on the maneuverability in cities while riding in traffic, But it is all about getting used to the feel of the bike.The overall performance is just amazing, No shortfalls whatsoever, And a decent mileage of around 30kmpl in highways (considering a 400cc engine) and 25kmpl in city traffic, And decent acceleration to keep up and stay ahead of traffic.However, I am not entirely satisfied with the after sales service, Although a major factor in this is people, Who can be very different in different places.But from my personal experience, I would not consider after sales service to be a plus point here.Overall, Enjoyable experience to own and ride this bike, Cheap maintenance cost and lots of fun.Enjoy an amazing set of 2 wheels!!.

I have a Dominar 400 BS6 model. I almost covered 10k kilometres and felt lots of issues are there. 1. Engine: the engine is not enough to smooth it produces lots of vibration, noise, and jerking. The speed range is very short according to gear. Eg: the engine will produce more noise if you try to speed up over 40 kmph in the 4th gear. On the other hand, you have to pull down your gear if your speed is below 50 kmph. 2. Build quality: the control switch got burned after 1 year, found some oil leakage from the body of the engine. The color of the engine is getting white because of heat. 3. Braking system: the rear brake, anyhow is not working, The front brake is getting jammed some time while the bike runs. 4. Servicing: most of the time parts are not available at the showroom. You are forced to use the Bajaj engine oil made by HP. The quality of this oil is very very poor. You will feel more vibration after running 20-30 kilometres. Recently I drove RE meteor, the engine is very cool & smooth than Dominar 400. The insurance & registration price will be almost doubled if the engine capacity is more than 350cc.

I will not recommend Bajaj Dominor. A peculiar problem is observed, after engine is run for 30 min or more, there is a repeated problem of restarting. So I will not recommend this bike.
