Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

Bikes equipped with ABS will have spongy brake feels. The entire force will be transferred to the module first then to the caliper. Upgrading to steel braided lines won’t make much difference.

Thanks for the info. I think I'm lacking research on my part, I'll see what can be done apart from brakepads.

Yeah. The brake fluids too play in increasing performance. Also D400 have steel braided lines I think. Rear should be rubber. That’ll help a lot.

I had a look on Amazon and AliExpress and found some inexpensive Steel braided lines. I thought I'll take a chance on them. I've heard from the ASC that the pulsar 220 hose won't fit the Dominar, so I started looking elsewhere. I feel like the current setup is too spongy for my riding style.

Yeah. Also what was the reason for the swap.

Can't we use the stock ABS line when swapping the brake hose?

Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

Well that's what I wanted to hear. The stock levers on Dominar are literally the same cheap ones used in discovers and pulsars, I hate the feel every time I reach for the levers, and this is just within 45 days of buying the Dominar!

Can I buy the levers easily from KTM workshop? If not, can I urge the Bajaj showroom manager to procure one for me, KTM showroom is merged with the bajaj one in my city and is handled by the same manager. He's not my friend or anything, just a friendly manager who tries to be care and co-operate with the premium (dominar) customers.

Visit the KTM workshop and buy the levers. I got my clutch lever in the same way, and got it fitted from ASC itself. Incase you're getting only the clutch lever, I would recommend KTM 390 lever. If you want to change the brake lever as well, I'd suggest looking for aftermarket levers, since the 390 brake lever costs around 1800. No matter how good the lever, it isn't worth 1800. The clutch lever should cost around 350.
