  • The Bajaj Dominar 400 wants to be a sport-touring motorcycle. But Bajaj believes that the 373cc engine and the performance is too much for a lot of buyers who end up buying smaller bikes instead. It’s for those people that it has created the Dominar 250, a motorcycle that takes the Dominar 400 frame, more or less, and adds in the engine from the wonderful KTM 250 Duke, more or less. More? Or Less? Shumi took the new Bajaj Dominar 250 out for a spin to find out!

    Got Dominar 250 a week back. Very happy with the motor cycle. Its comfortable and smooth. Gives a mileage of 39.4 when riding below 70 kmph even before the 1st service. Its just a little heavy which is good for the highways and there is a slight 'tick' sound while changing gears but it should vanish after the first or second service.

    Well the dominar 250 is very good option who wants a accessible touring bike that can be used also as a city bike .to be fair its a good product from bajaj. I think the new dominar 250 sites between the gixxer and duke 250.its comfortable, easy to ride, has decent performance and milage as well. Although i wish that the 250 could have been came with wider tyres especially the rear, chrome finished wheels, and that similar looking instrument cluster. But what i think that bajaj hasn't add this things because of keeping cost in check .

    This motorcycle, from the touring point of view has tough competition from the Gixxer 250, which is a great bike for highways...its smooth, quick to pick up speed, has great low end, comfortable and also frugal....the dominar is a heavy bike, but the duke 250’s engine means its torquey enough and very comfortable too and costs 20k cheaper than the gixxer. The gixxer though has better and wider tyres than the dominar. To me, the gixxer 250 is a better package.

      Dominar 400 is basically a cheaper heavier slower d390. Dominar 250 is a cheaper d250. Bajaj has done a good job at marketing the two brands very differently but in the end they are all more or less same.

    I would still consider buying the Duke 250 if I don't need to sit tight on a budget. It has good torque, proper handling, superb brakes, light weight everything u need from a daily city commuter. U'll miss all this on Dominar 250. U get what what u pay for. Can't expect more.

    Is it price comptetive: quality?

      quality seems okay. But yes the Suzuki Gixxer and the Yamaha both will probably last better over 3-4 years.
