Bajaj Dominar 400 – Design

The power cruiser comes with large dimensions and a low-slung stance. Obviously, it is going to catch some attention. It comes with an aggressive and sculpted body, giving the muscularity to the bike. The ‘Dominar’ plate on the beefy fuel tank, just looks perfect on its chiselled body. The LED headlamps with a small windscreen add to the manliness of the bike. Other design elements include a skid plate, broad handlebars, sporty rear side-tails and a well-designed cowl. Also, the machined alloy wheels and the sporty mudguard add to the finishing touch. From the rear, it copies the tail light styling from Pulsar. A small exhaust muffler is fitted on the big Dominar, which looks a little usual. However, as the frame of the bike is heavy, it gets a little scary to overtake at high speeds.

The 0-100 KMPH record is not much higher than KTM Duke, making it a mix of a sports bike and a cruiser. Importantly, even bike if the bike is cruising at 120 KMPH, it would not vibrate and still would give a chance of overtaking.

Bajaj Dominar 400 – Competition

Currently, Dominar 400 has a very stiff competition given to its aggressive pricing. Also, it swings both sides as a sports bike and as a cruiser. So, it faces comparison from both the sides. It competes with the likes of Mahindra Mojo, KTM Duke 390, Honda CBR 250R, Royal Enfield Thunderbird and Yamaha FZ 25. However, the biggest advantage of this bike is due to its huge list of features and impressive performance specs.
