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.

I own this bike for the past 1 year. Believe me, it feels like you are driving a great bike. It has a great road presence and it catches so much attention on the road. Nevertheless, initially, you feel it is a bit heavy if you are upgrading from the low cc bikes. With my experience below are some pros and cons. Pros:- 1. People will notice you when you are riding this. 2. Stability is amazing. You won't even feel like you are going with 100+. 3. The mileage is also good. It can give you somewhere between 25-30 all depending on your driving style. 4. Now it comes with riding accessories so it is very helpful. 5. It is so budget-friendly and has a tough body as per Indian terrains. 6. Maintenance is very low per 400 cc bike. 7. It has great power the 400cc engine provides 40bhp which is good in this price range. Cons:- 1. Suspension can be better. Sometimes riding feels a little bit stiff. But only on long stretches. 2. Brakes can be better. Anyway, it comes with dual channel ABS but still doesn't give you that much confidence as compared to its rivals like KTM/BMW. 3. Not so good for people with short height. If you are like 5.6 feet then you can handle it. 4. Even though Bajaj's service network is good you will not find their service quality up to the mark.

The dominar is a smooth, Stable, Powerful 400cc bike.Whilst being a marketing failure, Bajaj has managed to make and provide an amazing machine for it's price.Maintenance of the dominar is cheaper as compared to its other counterparts from other companies.It is slightly heavy, But offers good stability even at high speeds.Bajaj has outdone themselves with this bike.Parts are cheap to replace and it gives a decent mileage for a 400cc motorbike.The overall looks an aesthetics of the bike are also perfect for what the bike is made for, Definitely an option to consider in the 400cc segment of bikes.

Considering the price bracket and it's power figures it's one among the most affordable bike you can get.About the 2018 variant it's a sohc engine which make 35hp bt good things about these pre ug model is less engine wear and the overall maintenance cost is very less when compared to ug models.Adding a wind visor will be a good decisions so that you can cruise at 120+ with easy or being tired.
