But was allowed to experience the exhaust note. Trust me, it is the best stock exhaust on any bike under 2 lakhs. The reason for low sales of dominar is the way it looks. It's big but not attractive. Bajaj should have worked at least on the headlight design. Looks apart, it's the best bike under 2 lakhs.
    Agreed sir. To me, even headlight is OK with dazzling LEDs, but the tale light is an eye sore. Its just another pulsar tail. At night there is no difference between the back of a P150 and a Dominar. And that tail light design is more than a decade old. A better tail section is the need of the hour and if they still have budget left, bit better headlights as you mentioned.
    I would like to thank my legs for supporting me, my arms for being always by my side and my fingers; I could always count on them.

      It's basically a rebranded pulsar only, and people associate pulsars with that twin led tail lights, it's like a signature pulsar look. Ford Mustang has the same tail lamp design from 60 years ago, and people love it.

          Wouldn't say that. Duke & dominar are aimed at two sets of people. Dominar is set as a cruiser and for some decent touring, mileage and affordability. DUKE is a naked street bike with raw power and no thought to mileage or price tag, resits cheaper than rivals but the purpose is different. But we indians tour on whatever fits our bills.

          live long.. live happy.. that's the best revenge that can be served to the people who hate you..
