The Bike is A-okay. The real hurdle in low sales of Dominar is Bajaj itself. I have visited two of Bajaj showrooms in Kanpur and am very disappointed with the pathetic sales strategy of Dominar. Not a single demonstration bike and not even a single canopy posters of the same can be found anywhere. It seems as if Dominar doesn't exist for their own Bajaj people. When asked why is it like this they reply that who will buy such a costly bike for 2 lakh rupees. I mean are they programmed to sell platina and discover likes only. They don't even have any service personnel properly trained to service the Dominar. The staff is almost clueless as of what exactly the product is. Bajaj should not cry foul again after one year or two about low sales figures if they continue with the present pathetic sales, marketing and no availability of Dominar in Bajaj showrooms. It's my request to you people to Kindly let them know about the real problem faced by the interested customers who are left with nothing but disappointment by Bajaj staff and Bajaj's marketing negligence for selling Dominar.

And once I asked for a test drive and they were saying that test drives are only Given for those who booked the bike.. Dafaq? Then whts the point of test drive?
I hv been a CLASSIC 500 Rider since 8years. And speed is NOT my thing. I tried Duke 390 but it keeps asking for more n more speed or else it gets heated... Will the dominar have same issue??? Is it comfortable if i ride it daily in city traffic?
It probably still wont sell. and increased price will act against it as people think bajaj doesnt have the brand image of big bike. people prefer ktm or re bikes over this. same reason why rr310 isn't selling. And the bike doesnt particularly look good either. Slapping on a faring on same ergos(like gixxer and gixxer sf) would be better as people fall for for fared bike look and it would reduce the windblast which will aid in touring or bring it in an adventure touring form!!
Rr doesn't even sell as much as dominar. Obviously the price is more so it's justified to have less sales. But dominar being vfm didn't sell as much as the Duke 200 even though prices are close of course it's a fantastic bike. And so is rr 310 but they won't sell much due to brand image
I've bought bh6 dominar on 23rd march. This bike pulls towards right all the time due to heavy muffler (because of inbuilt cat con) I've invested 2.45 lakhs on a bike whose weight distribution is shit. I request you to highlight this issue so that bajaj redesign the exhaust and recall each and every Dominar UG to resolve the issue.
The problem with this bike for me always has been the build quality...no doubt it surpasses its competition in terms of equipment, but for such a price people expect a quality product and i don't see that with the domi, the vib reduction definitely helps though
If you just want to Showoff to the people buy Jawa, but if you want to tour and commute a lot then DOMINAR....jawa is just for Show off.. within months of owning that you will feel,...option is yours 💪

Take it gentle for the first month or two. The bike will break in well. You will get used to the power. Open the throttle gently. That's all. You need to focus on its size and weight because it will make handling in city traffic a bit harder if you are a beginner, power won't bother much.
I visited bajaj showroom in ludhiana, and the sales persons told me .. that they are not aware about new Dominar 2019 model.. they have only one bike.. which was older one, no bike for test ride, it seems like the agency holder dont want to sell dominar, .. very pathetic sales experience
Hello zig wheels I was just wondering if the 2019 dominar come in white colour because all the you tubers who review the dominar is all in green can u pls answer this question. Thanks
I am Adel ok Thks soo much and can u tell me if u know how to reduce the bikes weight because I’m a small and skinny person. I don’t think I can carry this bike.
@@Austin-zk8lu Unfortunately we can't reduce the Weight of the Bike, If you are skinny like under 60 kg also that will not be deal Until you are a Good Rider, If you are not Comfortable of this weight then I would Suggest you to Take the YAMAHA MT 15, it is launching on 15th of March, its great bike, it's a light weight bike with A lot of power . look at that too,😉. RIDE SAFE PEACE❤
I am Adel hi there is a RUclipser called bike&guy he has a dominar he reduced 10 kg from his dominar so from 182 to 172, tht is y I asked can’t we take out from the bike unwanted things like adding a louder and lighter exhaust taking of the mud guard and things like that
@@Austin-zk8lu it doesn't make sense that to take out Bike parts to Reduce bike Weight bhai.. do you think that Muffler and Mudguards and the Slider are waste of money? THINK twice Before you do it bhai...❤😆. And why dont that guy fix the Dominars engine on a bajaj platina and reduce 100 kgs....😆😂
Awsome package.i think the Mirror arm is going to collect water. Even the exhaust system is going to have some water collection process if kept in open space while raining. The mouth of the exhaust is faces upwards.
Reasons why Dominar failed : 1) Brand recognition itself acted against : Bajaj is known for its commuting bikes and is not known as a performance motorcycle brand. If Bajaj would have launched it under a different sub brand promoted as being performance motorcycle oriented, results could have been better. 2) Bajaj Dealership and Service centres : Although Bajaj is like maruti suzuki of bikes,i.e, pan india service network even in the remotest areas, most of them are pathetic when it comes to after sales service. Especially in Tier 3 cities and rural areas. Also, dealerships themselves didn't pitch it well. 3) Bajaj Reputation for suddenly discontinuing launched models except pulsars (Does anyone remembers Discover 135 or 150?). Many prospective buyers avoided solely because of the fear that if it doesn't reach expected sales numbers, Dominar may also get discontinued suddenly. 4) Lack of refinement, which has been already emphasized in the review. 5) Obsession of fully faired motorcycles among the youth. Obviously, it wasn't designed and tuned for that, but yes, owning a fully faired sportsbike matters a lot to many folks. RE has been an exception and on the current sales numbers, it could be safely assumed that it will remain an exception.
@@venkateshe7506 Yes, but this is the mileage given by old dominar. With increased power of nearly 5 bhp, the chances of improved mileage is very less. Most likely, it will be on the lower side of 25
Main issue was vibration and that only u didn't covered , also no discussion on average on new bike been made by you , oil leakage was the major issue on Dominor , did Bajaj done anything for it you didn't covered that too
Don't think it would find much favour in today's market especially after the launch of the RE650 twins. Don't think there will be any increase in price
Bajaj showrooms in my city don't allow anyone to test ride their ktm bikes also its the same case with domimar 400 n 250 I was confused between rc and duke 390 so thought of test riding the both but the showroom guys said test rides are allowed only after booking I was like wtf after booking and taking that particular model for a test ride and if I don't like the bike will you all refund my booking amount the answer was no.Literally you are going to spend close to 3 lacs on a 2 wheeler which has got crazy horsepower for our indian roads and bajaj ktm expects customers to buy it straight away without any test ride?Pathetic
