    Given that its a bike with mostly sporty nature the pillion seat is very good for long rides unless you are doing quite a bit of offroading. This I'm telling from personal experience

    Bike looks quite good in person. Finally a good product from bajaj after the pulsars. Gonna affect sales of their own products as well as others. Was looking to buy rtr200 but this seems a much better deal. Will wait for the initial reviews and then book.

    Once you book the online you get an sms and once your bikes arrives you will get another sms from the dealership conforming the same. From what I know the first lot will be send on 1st or 2nd Jan and it should reach various cities with 5 days from it.[/QUOTE]

    The rider seat is very comfortable. The tushy sets in well and the ride was very pleasant with no strain.
    The pillion seat is relatively a bit smaller. It will not be comfy for people, who sit "one side". If seated normal as usual, the pillion should be comfortable enough as the quality of the seats is very good.
    Take a TD and if possible have your wife as your pillion and take her opinion into consideration
    Ride safe.
    Cheers,
    SV

    Cons:
    1) Large turning radius. It was so large that the guy who drove (2nd ride,where i was the pillion to test pillion comfort) almost dropped the bike.
    Thanks for this post!

    I am not a good reviewer but will surely pen down some keys points once I lay my hands on the beast.

    I was very honest about everything and also mentioned the negatives as well. To my surprise most of the comments are abusive. Why? Coz i mentioned negatives about this motorcycle. Also mentioned how much for for money this is.

    So if i understand it right, if you come up with shortcomings on a any product in India, specially Bajaj you've recieve hatred.

    This is the Indian consumer scene. Sad thing though people are too blind to see all these. Better stop posting reviews, people will abuse you anyway.
    Please could you link that video here.

    These things you have to take in your stride and it part of being in a vast country with million different tastes/emotions.

    But, considering all, I have not TD'ed the bike but IMO it feels like Dominar has more positives than negatives and even those negatives might be too minor to bother about. So it depends on how you projected them.

    That rubber washer thing happens in one of my friend's duke 390 also..

    went to test ride again today at a different showroom. ripped it around corners a bit. it has that hook phenomenon from ktm bikes intact. when you enter a corner, bike is like average grip and not very inspiring. but once you cross a point around corner, tire builds great hold giving you confidence and feedback to open throttle. its a great handler i think.

    jumping back to r15, it felt like a toy even more than it normally does
    it was quiet evident riding them back to back how sharper and responsive r15 really is.

    I picked moon white dude.
    I got a msg from bajaj saying delivery starts jan 2017, which is tomo[emoji28]
    Anyways, I called the showroom guys. They said they are getting the first load on Jan 10th and there have been 400 bookings as of now. And there's a second load coming on jan 16th, So they told me I should be expecting the bike anytime after that,possibly between 16th-28th.
