Absolutely . And if your bike's oil goes a bit low during it's run , and you've a little unused 10w50 left with you , can use it for top-ups of the 20w50 too . However if the replaceable oil-filter is normally due for replacement anyway , then replace it .

Thanks man ☺

Guys, whenever I apply front brake I hear a very faint whistle sound. Is it normal?

Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

So I can just drain 10W50 and pour 20W50 at 1000 KM without changing oil filter again right?

Why do u wish to chose a wrong grade and that to not full synthetic is there any particular reason.

Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

Today I got my dominar water washed (not in service center) after washing completed I started driving my bike while driving both front and rear brakes were not working properly I mean was not getting a proper bite from them which they usually use to give. After driving for 200-300 meter it became normal was getting a proper response from both the brakes. is this normal or there is an issue? first time i am facing this thing. and also I am getting kat kat like sound while applying rear brakes when bike speed is around 10-15kmph.

Is there any charge for chain slider clamp and vibration reduction kit ?
I'm in service centre right now and they said material is free of cost but service charge is Rs 250 + GST
My bike is still in warranty.

There is no service cost.if its under warranty they are compiled to do it and that to free of charge.

Dear brthrz,

I would like to know how to reduce vibes on the handle bar of D400, i feel numb after riding it for 50 - 100 kms. Is there any tips? I just did the 3rd service and 10050kms on odo, I mentioned this to service guys and they tighten the handle bars, still there is vibrations. Waiting for your suggestions.🙂

You can have two possible solutions.

1. Check if the handlebar dampers are still in good condition. If not, change them.

2. Try using the older 390 Duke's grips. They are thicker and will make a difference.

If all else fails, use thicker gloves and live with those vibrations. I went with the second option and trust me it works.

I'll be taking my bike this Saturday for a wash and am also thinking about getting it polished. Since its a matte black so what type of wax/polish can be used?

Special polish/ wax are available for matte finish, search on Amazon. Also you can use waterless spray cleaners to protect the surface.

OK, can we use liquid polish on matte surface?

You can try sheeba polish, you can use it on fibre parts as well as painted parts, but use less amount in polishing matte finish and buff it afterwards.

This one is one of the cheapest and best multipurpose polish. It's made in india, and i got it for 130 rupees only, and it easily lasted me 1 year ! I am very satisfied with this product [emoji8]

Same torque at higher RPM now?
More power is always welcome.
More engine oil which is ok given the bump in power and revs.
USD takes in more oil for same fork size - that's news to me. It may be to avoid nose dives and make it more sturdy.
