    Guys
    A small doubt. In case of low engine oil, does it show in display or we should have to check manually only?

      It should show on the display but in few cases it hasn't . I remember in one case the engine malfunction light is glowing and on inspection the oil was very low level.
      Better keep checking it after every 2.5k kms.

        Hello everyone.. Got a Dominar on 25 August.. Clocked, 2500km till date first service done second is due. One thing I came across was the tank vibration sound which was around 4000rpm. It was irritating. At last figured out how to stop the vibration. It's a DIY. Two things vibrate 1. The front portion of the tank near the secondary display and the second is the Front number plate. What you need is a near hard (not very hard) consistency rubber/sponge ( I had the the case in which my Samsung gear fit 2 was placed on opening the box. I cut is in approximately 5mm in thickness in a square shape and fitted it in the front space which is there between the tank cover and the tank. Second I cut it in 3mm thickness in small long strip and placed it just near the secondary display I will show u the pictures. And guess what the sound and vibrations disappeared totally means totally. Even around 5k at small gears no vibrations in the tank. But they where there near the foot pegs and the handlebar. That I think the engines vibrates. And the riding experience hasincreased a lot. Hope it helps.

              Does anyone have problem with rearseat because in my bike I don't have to put key to remove it. It comes off automatically, even though I am locking it.😒

                Maybe yours is misaligned or the lock is bad or the wire is not fitted properly, you can get it checked at nearby mechanic or your service center.

                  Try doing this. While trying to find neutral, give a little throttle while having the clutch lever pressed, you should be able to slide into neutral effortlessly.

                    Hey guys, my bike completed about 1000 KM's and running fine. Just noticed something... After 5500 rpm the limiter light comes up. Is this normal? Would this continue or I should do something?

                      This would go after you complete 2000 km's. It is completely fine no need to worry

                        This will remain till the run in period i.e. 2000 km after which it will automatically disappear

                            slow down
                            max 60kmph

                              Folks from Bangalore, can you suggest a good Dealer as well as service centre for dominar around south Bangalore?
                              I am fine travelling extra mile for services etc if the service centre has skilled mechanics who won't ruin the bike.

                                As you have crossed 1000km as per manual you can safely go till 85 kmph key here is to keep the bike under 5000rpm in every gear and not to hold any particular speed for long till 2000km but i have touched 5500 rpm 10-15 times for 1-2 seconds and i am also running in as i have some different theory so going till 90 kmph must ne completely safe and in my opinion it will help opening up the engine .
