The buying experience of was ok not too good and not too bad either coming to the riding experience I have owned this bike for 10 months now and it is worth owning it. In this budget, I would tell you this is the most underrated and best sports tourer. Service is good they support you with every issue you have but the cost is slightly on the higher side for a 250cc rest all is good and talking about the cons the only downside I find in the bike is panel gaps.

“Dominar 250: My Unwavering Choice”
29 weeks ago
Rahul
In Pursuit of Dominance: My Journey with the Dominar* The buying experience largely depends on the dealership and your interaction with them* The riding experience is “so good as butter.” But a riding glove is advisable and mild vibrations are felt at specific speeds & RPM* The Dominar 250 offers a smooth and enjoyable ride, both on highways and in the city* While it may not have the sharp aesthetics of some other bikes (like KTM), the Dominar still looks cool.* Servicing and maintenance depend on the service center you choose. Choose a reliable service center. Always refer to the owner’s manual for service details. Cross-check the services performed on your vehicle.* Bajaj’s separate service personnel for Dominar bikes are commendable.* However, if the experienced Dominar service staff are unavailable (due to leave or other reasons), it can be challenging. Minor issues during servicing are common across brands. The same applies here as wellPros:Weight and Stability:* Feeling the weight initially is normal, but you’ll get used to it.* The Dominar’s weight contributes to stability on highways.* Those who dismiss the bike due to its weight might miss out on a hidden gem.Weight-Performance Balance:* Despite its weight, the Dominar 250 performs admirably.* The bike’s weight doesn’t hinder its overall performance, which is a positive aspect. Side View Mirror:* Well-designed mirrors enhance safety and convenience.Riding Position and Exhaust Note: * The stock-raised handlebars and riding position contribute to rider comfort.* The exhaust note, particularly in lower gears and at idle is a beautiful rhythm.* Even if you don’t consciously notice it during city rides, pillion will appreciate it. For a biker, it makes their day awesome!Moderate Electronics: * If you prefer a bike with fewer electronics like me, the Dominar 250 fits the bill.* It features dual-channel ABS and an ECU, striking a balance between technology and simplicity.* Unlike KTM bikes, it doesn’t overwhelm with excessive electronic aids.Headlight:* The Dominar 250 comes equipped with a powerful headlight that provides excellent illumination and is sufficient for most riding conditions.* Unless you’re venturing into extreme foggy areas in Himalayan regions, additional lighting modifications are unnecessary as white headlight in snow doesn’t make sense there.Cons:Rear Tyre Profile:* Comparing the Dominar 250 to other bikes in the same segment or Yamaha’s 150cc bikes, the rear tire profile is smaller.* While you may not notice this during regular riding, some riders experience cornering issues.* Keep in mind that tire conditions play a role, and upgrading beyond the manufacturer’s recommended size isn’t advisable.* Manufacturers have dedicated R&D teams who understand what’s best for the vehicle.Parking and Turning Radius:* Manoeuvring in tight spaces can be challenging due to the high turning radius.* Not a daily issue but worth noting.Windshield and mobile charger Absence:* Excessive wind can be tiring during long rides.* If you prefer the stock visor from the Dominar 400 Adventure Kit, it’s a good choice compared to aftermarket options.* At least the mobile charger could’ve been included as this is a sports tourer bike.Rear Brakes:* Rear brakes might feel spongy.* While some sponginess is common in heavy bikes, Bajaj should definitely improve rear breaking in future models* Skilled riders often use a combination of engine braking and both front and rear brakes for effective stopping. so, act like a pro!Ground Clearance:*Ground clearance is subjective and depends on individual riding styles and preferences.*Personally found it adequate, even during mild off-road rides.* The bike’s built-in protection helps prevent any exceptional significant hits to the underbody.On my journey from Coimbatore to Hyderabad & vice versa, I was 101% satisfied with it. Before selecting D250, I test-drove Gixxer 250, vstorm 250, and fz 25 were not available at that time, as Hunter, Himalayan 411, 450, and Scram 411. But the Dominar 250 stood out. Its performance, comfort, design, and versatility convinced me—it’s the one. It might be subjective. Have a comparison and go on your preference. Join the Dominar Clan and let the road be your canvas!

Tips for other riders
Do periodic maintenance by visiting authorised service centre. Do chain lube once every 500 kms/ after rain. As Bajaj's recommended engine oil change frequency is every 10000 kms. It's better to change it after a very long continuous ride of 3000 - 4000 kms or every 5000-6000. Check for the level of engine oil, if it's low just get 2x100 ml of oil from auth.spares and top up it. (check it once in 4 months/ before/ after long rides). Don't wait until fuel indicator die, refuel when it comes between 2 points - when it starts blinking. That's it, the "Dominance of Dominar will last longer!"

“Dominar 250: My Unwavering Choice”
29 weeks ago
Rahul
In Pursuit of Dominance: My Journey with the Dominar* The buying experience largely depends on the dealership and your interaction with them* The riding experience is “so good as butter.” But a riding glove is advisable and mild vibrations are felt at specific speeds & RPM* The Dominar 250 offers a smooth and enjoyable ride, both on highways and in the city* While it may not have the sharp aesthetics of some other bikes (like KTM), the Dominar still looks cool.* Servicing and maintenance depend on the service center you choose. Choose a reliable service center. Always refer to the owner’s manual for service details. Cross-check the services performed on your vehicle.* Bajaj’s separate service personnel for Dominar bikes are commendable.* However, if the experienced Dominar service staff are unavailable (due to leave or other reasons), it can be challenging. Minor issues during servicing are common across brands. The same applies here as wellPros:Weight and Stability:* Feeling the weight initially is normal, but you’ll get used to it.* The Dominar’s weight contributes to stability on highways.* Those who dismiss the bike due to its weight might miss out on a hidden gem.Weight-Performance Balance:* Despite its weight, the Dominar 250 performs admirably.* The bike’s weight doesn’t hinder its overall performance, which is a positive aspect. Side View Mirror:* Well-designed mirrors enhance safety and convenience.Riding Position and Exhaust Note: * The stock-raised handlebars and riding position contribute to rider comfort.* The exhaust note, particularly in lower gears and at idle is a beautiful rhythm.* Even if you don’t consciously notice it during city rides, pillion will appreciate it. For a biker, it makes their day awesome!Moderate Electronics: * If you prefer a bike with fewer electronics like me, the Dominar 250 fits the bill.* It features dual-channel ABS and an ECU, striking a balance between technology and simplicity.* Unlike KTM bikes, it doesn’t overwhelm with excessive electronic aids.Headlight:* The Dominar 250 comes equipped with a powerful headlight that provides excellent illumination and is sufficient for most riding conditions.* Unless you’re venturing into extreme foggy areas in Himalayan regions, additional lighting modifications are unnecessary as white headlight in snow doesn’t make sense there.Cons:Rear Tyre Profile:* Comparing the Dominar 250 to other bikes in the same segment or Yamaha’s 150cc bikes, the rear tire profile is smaller.* While you may not notice this during regular riding, some riders experience cornering issues.* Keep in mind that tire conditions play a role, and upgrading beyond the manufacturer’s recommended size isn’t advisable.* Manufacturers have dedicated R&D teams who understand what’s best for the vehicle.Parking and Turning Radius:* Manoeuvring in tight spaces can be challenging due to the high turning radius.* Not a daily issue but worth noting.Windshield and mobile charger Absence:* Excessive wind can be tiring during long rides.* If you prefer the stock visor from the Dominar 400 Adventure Kit, it’s a good choice compared to aftermarket options.* At least the mobile charger could’ve been included as this is a sports tourer bike.Rear Brakes:* Rear brakes might feel spongy.* While some sponginess is common in heavy bikes, Bajaj should definitely improve rear breaking in future models* Skilled riders often use a combination of engine braking and both front and rear brakes for effective stopping. so, act like a pro!Ground Clearance:*Ground clearance is subjective and depends on individual riding styles and preferences.*Personally found it adequate, even during mild off-road rides.* The bike’s built-in protection helps prevent any exceptional significant hits to the underbody.On my journey from Coimbatore to Hyderabad & vice versa, I was 101% satisfied with it. Before selecting D250, I test-drove Gixxer 250, vstorm 250, and fz 25 were not available at that time, as Hunter, Himalayan 411, 450, and Scram 411. But the Dominar 250 stood out. Its performance, comfort, design, and versatility convinced me—it’s the one. It might be subjective. Have a comparison and go on your preference. Join the Dominar Clan and let the road be your canvas!

Tips for other riders
Do periodic maintenance by visiting authorised service centre. Do chain lube once every 500 kms/ after rain. As Bajaj's recommended engine oil change frequency is every 10000 kms. It's better to change it after a very long continuous ride of 3000 - 4000 kms or every 5000-6000. Check for the level of engine oil, if it's low just get 2x100 ml of oil from auth.spares and top up it. (check it once in 4 months/ before/ after long rides). Don't wait until fuel indicator die, refuel when it comes between 2 points - when it starts blinking. That's it, the "Dominance of Dominar will last longer!"

Ownership review
25 weeks ago
Mannoj
The buying experience of was ok not too good and not too bad either coming to the riding experience I have owned this bike for 10 months now and it is worth owning it. In this budget, I would tell you this is the most underrated and best sports tourer. Service is good they support you with every issue you have but the cost is slightly on the higher side for a 250cc rest all is good and talking about the cons the only downside I find in the bike is panel gaps.
