Bajaj Dominar 400 Price in Srikakulam

I don't think I can saying anything new in this bike that the world doesn't know. But let me try
Confidence inspiring: A lot of people talk about weight being a -ve, and it is, however when you hit the highway, if you are like me coming from 150cc, this bike will give you so much confidence, it got the ergonomics right and the suspension absorbing small-medium potholes, it is just so easy to ride. I don't think any 400 CC bike (a couple of years ago) would compete with this on that. Either they are too aggressive like Dukes or very tame like the REs
Certainly a looker: This could be subjective, however when I compare the styling with others in this segment, it certainly looks really cool and this is something i have heard from people around us. When travelling with my friends in ADV 390, REs, Domi always stands out, that is a feel-good factor in buying this machine
Comfort: Whenever the talks about Domi, the statements start with weight/vibrations and end with the engine. However, comfort according to me is more important than the former. I can say i felt extremely comfortable riding long in this bike. It revs hard and absorbs undulations so well that you forget you are riding on bad roads, its only when we stop for a tea break other riders complain about how poor and horrible the ride as you realize that you are driving a superior machine. This is also due to the better seats available in the bike, At first i felt the seats were hard, however after many rides i understood the need for high-density foam and how thankful my bums feel after a day out
These are pointers from my ownership and glad to say i made the right choice, there are so many motoring channels that don't speak of Dominar but they always come back to vibrations, take a test ride for at least 25 kms if possible and then decide. Just remember there is no perfect bike, it only depends on what you want from it and does it delivers that to your satisfaction, Opinions can be from anyone but decisions must be based on your satisfaction and happiness and nothing else. After all, if you don't get what you love, why at all?

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.
