Bajaj Dominar 400 | First Ride | Autocar India 

Dominor is much bigger and less expensive. great option for bike lovers

Bajaj has always came up with interesting designs and features

How good is this bike for a new rider in hilly terrain mostly up and down around the corners...would you recommend this or anything else??? Please help

I am completely hooked up between dominar 400 and pulsar 220f. While urge to have more power is pushing me towards dominar at the same time the simplicity of 220f attracts me to herself. Dominar is really a capable machine but what set me back is its technologically loadedness. I love both the bikes but EFI of dominar is deal breaker for me, agreed that its way better than good old carburetor of 220f but its way more complicated and expensive as well. The non-abrestness of local mechanics with the EFI is major worry. I would take the 220f to any local mechanic for its service but I am skeptical about it when it comes to dominar. Further I have enough for me at commuter space as my Yamaha Saluto serves me well there, and what I am looking now for is tourer where both the bike mentioned here fits well. Listening to the horrendous stories of EFI breakdown of thunderbird owners force me to keep my hands away from dominar. Imagining the EFI breakdown on deserted-loneny highway or abandoned countryside with my wife gives me feeling of nightmare (though I have not personally experienced it). My uses would mostly be sticked to fortnight long drives and once in a month or two to go for touring. As I will be using it for 300-500 kms/day touring I think I wont be going wrong with any of them. Pillion comfort is also very much of concern for me as almost all the time I would be travelling with my wife. What should I do? should I wait for sometime so that bajaj may go back to carburater on dominar as they did with pulsar 220F back then. Or should I go for Pulsar 220F itself.

good review Sherman. prefer your neutral voice tone over some bike journos who try and sound excited about 'every word' they say

It surely gives a big bike feel. The grunt and the bassy feel from the exhaust gives it the feel. The styling is spot on

which is better bike between honda cbr 250 vs dominor 400 in case of comfort , reliability and digital metre quality ?

love this motorcycle from the first look. sadly, no more bajaj showroom in indonesia. dont have any bajaj dealer since years. hope bajaj will come back to indonesia. please come back

am waiting for this first review since its launch...Thanks for this exclusive one

Jeez.. Was waiting for a good review.. RU-vid is filled with bullshit videos about Dominar 400

doing good job Autocar India...breaking stereotypes...nice..our country is changing..:)

does anyone have any idea of any new colors that will be introduced in Dominor. Non of the present 3 colors are fitting in my choice

which one should I buy...Dominar 400 or Duke 250 ? I am highly confused among both....Though Dominar is bang for the bucks but Duke 250 kills it in terms of Style....Please give your suggestion. which one be the best one for me to buy...I will use the bike to commute daily to office (15kms up and 15kms down). Also a monthly trip of 100-150kms away from city...My age is 24 by the way

Can you pleas tell me one thing... Is bajaj about to launch dominar 200 near April 2017..because i am about to purchase a bike in near time.. So if dominar is gonna launch it in 3 months.. So i will wait for it.. But they are not so i will buy fz25 in next week.. So can you please tell me it's true or false... Please reply... Thank you..

Does it make sense to buy this in Bangalore ? I'll be commuting not more than 30 kms in a stop and go traffic and occasionally touring out of town . Any suggestions within the same price range will be appreciated.also , is abs really required ? I don't ride at high speeds

I have a dominar 400 and I have done 13000 km, Do I need to used any fuel additive , fuel injection cleaner, and engine flush. Which fuel additive , fuel injection cleaner and and engine flush is better for dominar. Please suggest.

I am confused in this 5 bikes plz suggest me best bike for daily 40km ride, by all aspects like mileage, comfort, maintenance. 1)Dominor 400 2)ktm duke 200 3)classic 350 4)R15 V3.0 (after launching) 5)Cbr 150r (newer version) so plz suggest me best bike.

Ye bike kse hai?? lene jse hai ?? paisa vasul bike?? dominar 400 or cbr 250 rr which one is best?

took a test ride last week, so excited to try and yes it is a pretty good bike for this price. but the exhaust sound is not as I expected.

how comfortable is dominor for long travels & in one at stretch HW much can it go on?

Location and review! Bonkers Good one and Good Cinematography as well! And About the Brakes this is typical Bajaj Behavior, Front is good and rear lacks a bit. Expected from Bajaj Motorcycles.

I am no fan of any company, I just need a bike which have good mileage, cruising capacity, and can be maintained easily for long time.i was planning to buy re thunderbird, but dominar 400 arrived . Thunderbird is durable bike, is it same with dominar, Should I go for dominar or there is another bike you can suggest.

confused btw RE and dominor ..pls suggest

excellent review bro ....big thumbs up

I have heard that dominar has separate service center of bajaj rather than keeping with other bajaj bikes, which is appreciated. But it is only given in selected cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and chennai. Is the news true or fake?

Very decent review I'd say. Still waiting for more bikes to be launched this year :-)

its very gud byk with very gud pricing . Attractive & sporty looks, good torque , & sound of engine is its usp. can be matched with other sporty bikes like bmw, banelli etc. good for riders who wants everything what you want in sports bike in lesser price

thank u sir...i will coose between RTR 200..RS 200..or Dominar 400..i love sports...so i will wait also for r15 v3

How does it perform in the long run?

Autocar team please compare duke 390 vs dominar 400

Bajaj Dominar or Mahindra mojo which is more refined & reliable?

classic 350 vs Dominor 400? which is better among these 2????

A little confused between Dominar 400 and RE Bullet 500CC any suggestions?

Hey frd i have one doubt on rpm if bike has 35 bh@8000rpm and 35bh@6500rpm which better rpm either 8000pm @35 or 6500rpm of35

Bajaj Dominar 400 or Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 friends? Considering city ride quality, power outputs, and sitting posture? Pls tell

@Autocar India, I am a NOOB rider. Should I buy it? I travel daily of about 50 to 100 km. will it suit me? When would be the best time to book it? Is it worth taking a loan to pay off? Out of 10, how much will you rate it? It will be my first bike. Need honest answer. Should I buy it in bangalore? Should I wait for other bikes or should I go for this?

how is the exhaust note?

I am more concerned about parts quality, are they good?

Hey first of all amazing video. so when You say "dominar 400 misses out on giving you a big bike feel" can You please elaborate it a little? I mean in this range of bikes which bike can give You a "Big bike" feel? benelli tnt 25? Mahindra Mojo? or some other bike?

Good bike overall but the brake feel was not good when I test rode it now I am not saying the brakes are bad but they lack the feel of the brakes biting atleast to me that's what it appeared to be 😊

hey guys can any one tell me will this bike will be comfortable and look good for a 6.2 feet guy?? plzz help Thank you :)

m going to buy this soon after watching your version.

How much mileage can get on dominor 400

15000 INR = 240,000 nepalese rupee ... and 300 % tax and all(almost ) ... 720,000 NPR ..... phew ........

What about maintenance cost?

Dominar 400 design is well done by Bajaj. BUt it looks good and shows quality. It doesn't look super duper outstanding but its also not overdone like RS200 trying to look to good but look unappealing at the end.

After purchasing Dominar 400 (2018) I had so many issues with the bike that I can't recommended it to anyone else. Service was very poor wait to long at the service centre, non availability of many spare parts.

is it good for touring

I guess I'll get this ! The Duke 390 has poor ride quality

what is the top speed with dominar?

should i buy dominar 400? i tried to get a test ride but typical bajaj people, their response was so cold that it made me rethink to buy it. they may show their original faces during its service.

is it like other bajaj??....i mean engine/body good for 1 year

wats the on road price in kerala??

Best review ...ever seen...thnx bro

I'm 6.2 feet tall (6.3 with shoes on ) which bike to chose Freinds

Great video , plz compare it with its KTM siblings.

any updates regardinng yamaha mslaz?

Guys I test drove Dominar 400 yesterday. My observation is, it is not suitable for people above 40 years of age as 50 percent of your body weigt is transferred to your wrist because of the sitting posture. As a result, you can't ride long distances. Secondly it's breakers are no good. I own an Avenger 220 cruise and I feel my bike is far far better for city as well as long rides.

Good Review and nicely done.

It can be a second bike in the garage to ride in the weekends, but not as a daily commuter...considering the weight, fuel cost, etc...don't think it will be easy in a city...that to even daily....aah...I'm confused 🤐

can you switch the ABS off on this one??

Dis bike is good.but some little bit issues in bike.like daylight running lamp and bike is going above 100 vibration as come....

pls tell if seat height adjustable....

Please someone tell me does dominar is good for going ladakh

Duke inspired mirrors ??? They are exactly same as NS !

Much better then Duke 390 in term of Road Grip, comfortable riding and performance.

what is the location of the shoot?

what about mileage...?

Mahabaleshwar!!!!

what about Pulsar 200ns 2017?? do reply

why bajaj bikes vibrate a lot and makes body parts makes noises after some time

ktm engine sound just like a trackter...........and the dominor is like a beast

domnar 200 bhi aa skti hai kya after one year??

Does dominar 400 get tripla riding... that mean in dominar 400 3 person can seat and go for the ride

bruh wts the onroad price of dominar400 in bangalore and tamilnadu

the best ever designed bike from Bajaj....

what is the waiting period for this bike ? anyone?
