Bajaj Dominar 400 Price in Rambha

I have been using this bike since 2019 and thought to write a detailed review about this bike as I've driven 25k+ kms on this bike
Pros:
1. The price-to-performance ratio is no match, there's no bike anywhere in the world that can give you this performance at this cheap price. Writing this after a lot of research
2. Refinement - Bajaj has worked a lot on refining the engine giving a flagship experience. You don't feel this like a Bajaj bike or a Pulsar bike. Dominar refinement is something else. You feel confident enough to rely on the Engine while riding for long distances
3. Mile Muncher: You can go very long effortlessly on this bike as the dynamics are great. You sit straight because of the design. You just need to add some handlebar risers and you're ready. ~190 kg The Weight of this machine is an added advantage - it gives a lot more confidence in high-speeds
4. Ground clearance - This bike is designed with a great balance - You'll love the highways as well as a bit of off-roading when possible
Cons:
1. Gearbox can be slightly better
2. The clutch can be a little lost as we drive for a long time on this vehicle
3. This bike deserves better tires - Stock MRF is also decent, but better tires make you feel better
4. Braking distance can be improved
All the above cons are no way before the Pros this bike brings to you. So anybody who's planning to buy a bike for Fun city commutes and Comfortable Highway Mile munching at that budget - You can buy this with no second thoughts

About the Reviewer

Dominar 400 especially after the UG model with E20 BS6 update which comes with a touring kit is very good value for money. The engine is adequately refined and the exhaust sounds good once you pick up the pace, Turning radius is however is larger due to the longer wheelbase which we get used to after a few kms of riding. A longer wheelbase and 190kg Kerby weight help in aiding the bike's stability in higher speeds above 80-100 kmph where it's cursing effortlessly. I do miss the centre stand though, The rest is all good about this bike just go for it.

About the Reviewer

Bought this bike approximately 3 years back from Nagpur Maharashtra and brought back to chhattisgarh to register in my city. Done 50000 kms in 3 years. Kept complete record of every fuel, refill and service cost (including consumable and non consumable spare parts) and upgrades like zana crash guard, saddle stay, radiator grill protector, mobile charger and holder, handlebar riser, hazard flashers from dimtec, kz30 aux lights, iridium plugs (all three) neodium magnets glued to tank to hold magnetic tank bag, rear wheel full cover from a yamaha bike modified to protect from mud in rainy days, underseat progressively illuminating turn indicators and brake lights that gave the sharp head turner attention of nearby travellers always without fail.
My bike was single handedly used by me for each and every purpose like daily office commute, long and short ride events with corridors in our riding club and bring vegetables and home commodities in my home, I am well satisfied with overall average fuel consumption of above 30 km/l and 32km/l while on long rides of approx. 1 to 1.5k kms. Here are some analytics to share
1. Approx. service cost including consumable spares like oil, filters etc overall was 32k for 3 years
2. Fuel cost was 1.38l approx. for 3 years (@83rs/l)
3. Accessories installed approx. 25 k
4, general cleaning and maintainance around 5k
It was a good experience to own it for these years before selling off her last week and now again planning to buying 2022 edition with touring accessories. Only factor that caused pain to me was poorly trained or unskilled/careless service technicians that ruin the pleasure of ownership of this otherwise wonderful bike.
