Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

I have installed a set of Pirelli Diablo Rosso ii and it's been a sheer joy to ride on them. The grip and cornering performance is much superior than stock. I am a late braker and these tyres hold up well. Even found the comfort level to be better because of the soft compound.

Would definitely recommend them.

But I don't expect them to last more than 10-12k kms.

Alternatively you could go for the Metz Sportec M5 or M7. They are equal if not better.

Not aware of the other ones you mentioned but if you want better performance, then avoid the Michelin pilot Street (too much road noise on the dom and lesser grip) , Pirelli Angel City, Metz Sportec Street.

Hello everyone,

I want to buy a new pair of tyres. But I can't decide.

There are only few options in my country:

- Pirelli Angel City
- Mitas Sportforce +
- Michelin Pilot Power 2CT
- Michlein Pilot Street
- Metzeler Sportec Street
- Metzeler Sportec M5

I need good wet & dry grip. I'm not a racer or something like that I don't do high speeds. I like cornering though. What I really need is safety.

Thanks!

Re: Bajaj Dominar 400 Ownership Experience Thread

But I did it and its been a week... didn't find much performance difference mostly because i didn't remove the Catalytic convertor and just slip it on... my conclusion is its sounding best among any single cylinder bike but its bad while in slow speeds and does sound like a 150cc bike just with more bass (its not that amusing) but on fast speed it definitely sound Awesome (for anyone, no it will no sing like 2/3/4 cylinder bikes) and its loud as hell... but for real it is just an hobby to me to make changes and learn new things (it excites me alot) and honestly I'll change it back to stock one which i loved much more. Thanks for replying bro! I promise to not rev her much [emoji1591]

Can you post a video of your slip on exhaust

I ordered these dual horn set from Amazon. I was wondering if the 2019 UG Dominar battery can take the load of these horns without affecting the battery or bike electricals. I already have the required relay harness for this setup.

This I found is 2018 service manual:


I selected these horns especially for highway runs where the stock horn feels extremely inadequate for people/two wheelers crossing the roads between dividers and at junction to notice the incoming bike(my bike in this case). Your advice on the above query is very much helpful. Thanks

This should work good, i am using a Roots windtone, and it works perfectly fine, Please check on google and compare.

The Domi will be able to handle this horn. Make sure you use a relay and your all set. Don't use it without relay.

Thanks for the confirmation B7ACKTHORN, yes the wiring harness includes relay.

This is just out of curiosity, what is this relay that we are talking about here?
I mean what does it do when it comes to horn?

The horn relay is the electronic component that is a part of the vehicle's horn circuit. It serves as the relay that controls power to the vehicle's horn. Most relays are located in the fuse box underneath the hood. When the relay fails it can leave the vehicle without a functioning horn.
You need relay to protect the horn switch and associated wiring from the amperage draw of the horn.

Relays are placed inside the rear right panel. You can locate most relays there stacked together.

Arent you reffering to the fusebox`s??

Fuse box is under the rider seat but relays are placed under/inside the rear rhs panel.

Simple, it helps act as a power buffer between your original horn switch and battery. High amp draw can cause your horn switch to fail. So, a relay comes into play here. When you press your horn switch, the relay works first, then it takes supply from the line/battery to power the horns. If you directly connect it to stock, it will work, but you run the risk of melting wires and stock horn switch failing.
