Re: Confused between two Royal Enfields.

Do you think the bullet will lasts 5 years easily and that too new one... Come on yaar.... My friend's bullet got crank problem just at 10000kms....
I have Avenger... Bought for 6years and passed 40000kms

Re: Confused between two Royal Enfields.

I agree. Although the new bullets have far less niggles and are generally have come a long way, the Dominar is simply superior.

Re: Confused between two Royal Enfields.

Bajaj Dominar is a better choice in all aspects including the Oomph factor. Believe me Enfields aren't exclusive any more if its a factor for you. Dominar is faster, better, SAFER and generally the winning choice ON PAPER. Having said that, I must emphasize that TAKE TEST RIDES; more than once. It must feel manageable to you. Ride in city and see how you feel. You can't go wrong with any of them.

Re: Confused between two Royal Enfields.

Well, the RE and a Dominar are two VERY different bikes. It comes down to where you are from (previous RE user?), how you ride and what you expect out of a motorcycle (yeh, i know everyone wants a 'reliable' motorcycle and a pretty wife who listens to the husband).

So get a few test rides and see what you like.
The RE's are known to have their fair share of problems, and so do the ktm's (since the dominar is based off the 390 and is a new launch) but I feel the dominar would edge out the RE in terms of equipment level's and maybe even 'reliability'. The dominar is going to be quicker of the two and better handling, so some folks who buy the dominar would ride it hard compared to say the RE.
With basic maintenance and sensible riding, I don't see why they wouldn't last 5 years.

Re: Confused between two Royal Enfields.

Ride all of them and then listen to your heart, for city riding dominar is good.

Query Approved

Do go through the ownership threads of the bikes and wait for a month (if possible) to see the ownership thread of the Dominar. Test ride all in the meantime.

All the best with the purchase
