    Will tell ya after i get the bike registered.
    What type (h4, h1..etc) and rating (20w, 30W .>?) of LED bulb does the dominar use?
    Do they even look like 'conventional' bulbs or like chips mounted on a pcb with an electrical connector.
    Couldn't check out the bike up close and the specs online do not give any more information than just 'LED'.
    Wondering if maybe us lesser mortals could plonk in the bulb from the dominar [MENTION=88300]Unforgiv3n biker[/MENTION] , why dont you start a ownership experience thread, so all discussion related to the dominar can be had there.
    Or moderators, why don't we fork out this thread in to a ownership thread.. [MENTION=39214]B7ACKTHORN[/MENTION] what say?

The moto man method is still a topic that depends on the rider's choice. As per me, metal needs time to set in places, and oil needs to seep in diff places. Redlining will only effect the engine, but I have full faith on Bajaj people, they CAN say these things [emoji13]
    Yes. I thought so too. They should have made a manual available. Anyway, I just followed what the Dominar technician said, as there was no manual.

    Yes, as I said earlier, we were told they are developing an online manual, with all info which should be ready in about 2 weeks and can be downloaded thereafter

    Anyways, I was told to ride slow for about 20 kms, change gears in their redlines, and then not to cross 7500 rpm. And all the while I maintained less than 7000. So I hope it's kinda cool and I didn't have any problems.
    Hope so not to have any in the near future too.
    And not for no reason, people complain about Bajaj bikes not being reliable. First you abuse, then You complain. God save you. It totally depends upon you, how long your engine lasts without rebuild.

    Please check the manual provided with the bike. Dont believe what these mechanics / sales advisors say. Most of them have no idea how engines work.

    Not true. Occasional bursts of speed is okay but one should stick to manual suggested rpm limits.
    Also the point of running in is to let the engine run through the rpm range, so don't stick to one speed and keep varying it.
    Unless your engine is pre run in, running is a must to get maximum efficiency out of it.
    Cheers

    Congratulations on your new acquisition mate
    And for me 7500 rpm would be too much for run in . especially for a beast like this which generates most of its power at this RPM .
    What I know from my experience is that 4000-5000rpm is good for first service then you can gradually increase the RPM till 6000 for about 2000-3000kms ..
    But for machines like this one the RPM ranges would be less I guess .
