Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

I took 3 test rides of Duke 390 over a period of one year, as I was unsure of purchasing it. In none of the test drives I could go over 3rd gear in Bangalore city during normal traffic condition. The color console looks really cool with added BT functionality. But Bike looks small does not give big bike feel.

Finally 3 months back purchased D400 UG. Happy with it so far. Few niggles here and there like console trip resets sometimes, takes 2-3 crank to start if bike stops in running condition, long turning radius, slightly front heavy. But overall no regrets, in fact happy with my purchase.

Guys, I am planning to upgrade my bike...Already owned rs200 and classic 350..I need a bike best for touring and daily commute..My choices are new dominar and duke 390..Personally I feel dominar is value for money and duke 390 just looks cool and raw power and has more problems in maintenance too...Can dominar 2019 owners can shed some light...Is new dominar is good in all aspects??

Well I recently got 10k kms on my Dominar's odo. Since the day it has came to me, my rides became so comfortable and I became much more confident.
And I am planning to ride Pune to Raipur next week. Atg att[emoji3577]

If you go through this thread many people have complained about this issue, it is very persistent. Take a test drive and see it for yourself, if it doesn't bother you that much get the bike or else wait for the 2020 stock

Yes, it sways to right. and make sure you replace the leg guard bolts as soon as you take delivery as Bajaj has made worst quality bolts which might break even before you reach home. Mine broke at 3000 kms, most of other Dominar bolts break around 2000km. Comfort is okayish, little bit hard seats for continuous riding.

Hey everyone, I see a lot of 2019 Dominar owners here. Can some of you confirm if the dreaded coolant mixing with engine oil problem still persists in the 2019 Dominar UG or has it been rectified now?

Thanks,

Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

Hello Guys,

I own 2018 model, clocked 9.3k kms, age 1.3 years. Gear shift at any lower 2, 3, 4 gears is not smooth many times. Sometimes it shifts without any clunck or hardness. I don't know whether the problem is with clutch plates or clutch free play or any other issue.
I ride responsibly with full clutch disengaged during gear shifts.
Took to service center they adjusted clutch free play but after few hundred kms gear shift becomes soar.
Any inputs whether any thing need to checked/addressed for this issue.

This makes my ride experience really worse
TIA.

Regards,
Nithu

I have the exact same issue. Also, I feel my bike's performance has gone down.It has clocked around 7k kms and hardly 9 months old. Will be taking it to the showroom here in Blore sometime this week or next week. Will let you know what they say

Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

4th and 5th buddy, but I'm afraid they may not acknowledge the issue at the service centre, which is why I want to know if it's ok to ignore this issue?

Thanks, have a good day

Don't ignore,i am going to replace all the 6 gear parts
