Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

my domi gives tik tik sound after parking each and everytime is that normal.....and in alloy wheels it gets white strains like(fungus in bread). please give me some suggestion to solve this

thank you in advance

The tik tik sound is normal in any four stroke Engine. it is the thermal expansion and static friction. nothing to worry about it. and for the alloy wheels, Clean it with a damp cloth every day morning. It will be clean. no other choice. if its too bad, use Autosol or brito only on the machined surface to polish. or simple use Colgate tooth paste when ever you wash the bike.

The bike has so much of power that it is very hard for me to keep it under 70.. I try my best to control myself from opening the throttle and experiencing the surge of power. But I need to keep it low at-least till the first 1000 Km.

Try keeping under 5k rpm

Yes, it is. Most of the bigger capacity bikes will have this sound.
Its the oil that's making the rotor spin a little and hence the engagement is a bit noisy. There is nothing to worry about. For that matter, I was told that you can start the bike in 1st gear. With more research, i can confirm that it's not. Always start in neutral as much as you can.

Status update: it wasn't really the rim that was bent. Got it checked from the experts. The leak from the bead was actually the tyre, torn from inside. Apparently, rear tyre was punctured and the nail was in there for days i guess. It eventually leaked most of the air and scratched the side wall.
Anyway.. I had to buy a replacement and was recommend michelin pilot street radial by fellow dominar riders. Took the same size for 5.5k; happy to report that the grip is much better than the revz. Money well spent. She is now ready to revved like she is supposed to!

Please reduce the size of the image to 150 kb and less and it should squeeze in. Images which are bigger than 1 MB will sometime have trouble getting uploaded. Also you can use drive sharing where you can provide the URL for your image that's in your drive and it can fetch that link. You have a tab called "from URL" use that tab if you have trouble uploading from desktop.

Cheers!

It'll last forever, however we should change it @30k iirc as per manual.

Thak sound is only there in 1 st gear 6th to 5th thak sound while downshift should not be there, get it checked u might need some adjustment to chain slack or clutch. Never heard this from any owner here in our whatsapp group.
