    10kmph up or down in top speed is ok.. & no way rtr 200 can go upto 144kmph its just possible on inclined road & that shouldn't be called as topspeed.. i my self own a rtr200 & highest i can go upto is 134kmph including my weight... U are saying almost 30kmph more from wat manufacturer is claiming... & Though rtr200 is having 20bhp (carb variant) its engine is well tuned... So touching 170kmph is almost not possible... With dominar
    Dude.. 182kgs+an average guy weighing around 65 kgs... = 247kgs no way it can pull that hard with only 35bhp of power.

Even benelli tnt 600 has a weight around 210kgs..its a 600cc bike... Wat bajaj is offering with respect to price is a decent machine any penny over that.. will not be worthy as its clearly underpowered bike..... its carrying that one hell of a weight.

    Machine looks amazing with affordable price range, the only off is 182KG weight rest looks awesome.
    Don't have problem with tank if its giving 30kmpl means 13*30 = 390KM range not bad for tourer, easily manageable
    but actual figure will come you will see in on road.

    with so much weight how well it will perform on cornering that future will tell, personally i have doubt about it.

    RE is completely different story, RE guys do not consider other than DUG DUG(no offense).

    But yes at this price range it will give tough competition to DUKE,R15 as well as CBR.
    Claim is 148kmph but i am sure it would touch 170 on road.

    Eagerly waiting to TD it

    It corners well given its weight

    Although i'm not very tall but prefer a high saddle position in order to have a better view of the traffic ahead.


    P.S. The ABS on Dominar.... is it switchable ?
    At 800mm its not low but it has a feeling of low stance and accomodates tall riders easily

    No the ABS is not switchable

    not so with the hardcore RE guys but yes many of them they simply love the sound.. However superior technology the competitor might give..but the RE guys will just say...ye jo sound hai ye woh de nahi pati....

    While I've not taken an offence & I don't intend to start a bike war, but I'd just like to point out that those who buy REs are maybe looking for that one particular thing which other bikes don't provide. eg. Some people like traditional bikes! or maybe its that particular sound! I find increasingly that there's a lot of judgement being passed around by the kind of bike/ brand of bike owned. Dont intend to steer the thread away but thought of mentioning this.

    Booked it online today in Kolkata. Ex showroom price 1.57 lkh, 3 to 4k more than other places may be due to some strange pricing policy! Lets see when the delivery happens. I was waiting eagerly for something good for highway cruising like cbr 250/mojo/himalayan etc.Cancelled booking of Himalayan just 1wk back after reading so many complaints and reports of quality control issues among the first batch himalayan users. Don't know how will be the quality of first batch of Dominar either. Let's hope for the best. I'll keep posting my booking and other experiences with the dealership in near future in case it helps someone else.
    Live healthy.Ride safe.
    We're here to help you. Keep us abreast on the booking to delivery process, this bike is the most awaited New Thread Starter in at least a year, not barring the Himalayan. As much as the Himalayan created the hype, hit or miss quality and too many recalls has significantly reduced the Himalayan's pulse rate. Now that, DOMINAR has increased the pulse rate to new highs, as a biker, the little guy inside me just can't wait to throw a leg over.

    Cheers!
