Latest Updates
Thursday, 07 September 2023 09:52 AM

Bajaj has now fitted the Dominar 250 with black alloy wheels in place of the white and silver ones that were previously available, following the Pulsar NS200 and NS160. A Dominar 250 of this type was recently observed at what appears to be a dealer stock yard. There doesn't appear to have been any changes made to the Dominar 250 other than the addition of new alloy wheels. We anticipate that other color variants will also be kept available. The spotted bike had a dual-tone red-silver color scheme, which has been available for a while. Furthermore, it is unlikely that this update will impact the ex-showroom (Delhi) price of Rs. 1.64 lakh.

Three new dual-tone color schemes for Bajaj Auto's Dominar 250, a motorcycle with a quarter-liter engine, have recently been released. The cost of these new paint colors is Rs 1.54 lakh (ex-showroom).Now available are red and silver, citrus rush and silver, and black and silver colors for the Bajaj Dominar 250. The manufacturer anticipates that the Dominar 250's sales will increase with the addition of these new paint jobs because the bike now has a more desirable appearance. It's interesting that the manufacturer from Pune has chosen to discount these new colour schemes.
 

Monday, 26 August 2024 08:49 PM The Bajaj Dominar 250 has recently been reviewed for its daily commute and touring capabilities. The review highlighted the bikes 13-liter fuel tank, which is considered small, and its mileage of around 25-28 km/l. The bike also features a single-sided stand, engine auto cut-off, and a six-speed gearbox. I think the Dominar 250s performance and features make it a solid choice for both daily use and short tours, despite some minor drawbacks.
Wednesday, 08 May 2024 07:34 PM Bajaj Auto is planning to refurbish the Dominar brand, including the Dominar 250, with significant updates such as new features, cosmetic changes, and enhanced safety features. The updates may include a new digital instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation, ride-by-wire with multiple riding modes, and traction control. I believe these updates will make the Dominar 250 more competitive in its segment.
Wednesday, 08 May 2024 11:05 AM The Bajaj Dominar 250 is expected to receive a facelift in 2025, which will include an updated LCD instrument cluster with support for turn-by-turn navigation. The bike will retain its 248.77 cc engine producing 27 PS and 23.5 Nm, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The updates are likely to result in a price hike of Rs 3,000 to Rs 5,000. I think this refresh will help the Dominar 250 appeal to more buyers looking for a feature-rich cruiser.
Monday, 06 May 2024 09:26 PM Bajaj has confirmed that the Dominar 250 will see some mechanical and cosmetic updates, including new color options and refreshed graphics. The bikes existing features such as 37 mm USD forks and Nitrox monoshock suspension will be carried forward. Additionally, there might be improvements in the overall refinement levels and a larger fuel tank for better touring range. I believe these changes will enhance the riding experience and make the Dominar 250 a more appealing option for tourers.
Tuesday, 01 August 2023 04:53 PM Bajaj has introduced three new color options for the Dominar 250, apart from which there are no other significant changes. This move is likely aimed at keeping the model fresh in the market until the more comprehensive updates planned for 2025. I believe the new colors will help maintain consumer interest in the Dominar 250.

Road presence is amazing

Barun Kumar | 2 years ago

Believe me, owning this bike for the past year has been a great experience. The road presence is amazing and it really catches the attention of people on the road. Initially, it might feel a bit heavy if you're upgrading from a low cc bike, but once you get used to it, you won't feel that anymore.

Talking about the pros, people will definitely notice you when you ride this bike. The stability it provides is unparalleled and the mileage is quite good. It can give you anywhere between 25-30 kmpl depending upon your driving style. It also comes with riding accessories which make it very helpful. Plus, its budget-friendly and has a tough body as per Indian terrains. Maintenance is also quite low for a 400cc bike. It has great power as the 400cc engine provides 40bhp, which is very good in this price range.

The only cons I noticed with this bike are its suspension and brakes. The suspension can be a bit stiff at times, especially on long stretches. Brakes could also be better, even though it comes with dual channel ABS. It doesn't give you much confidence as compared to its rivals like KTM/BMW. Also, it's not so good for people with short height. So, if you're around 5.6 feet, then you'll be able to handle it quite easily. Lastly, even though Bajaj's service network is good, their service quality isn't

Very smooth and just glides in traffic

Rishi Sethi | 2 years ago

The driving experience of the Dominar 400 is very smooth and just glides in traffic and on the highway. It is also very comfortable for long rides, and I myself have taken rides of 150+ km without any issues. The mileage of the bike is low in traffic, but can go up to 30+ km per litre on the highway.

The additional benefit of the new version of the bike is the back rest, which makes the pillion very comfortable for long rides. There is no jerk or stalling while changing gears. The additional fitting for adding carrier adds value to the bike. There is some vibration at speeds above 120 km/h, but the features are less than its competition.

The after sale service is good, but the people in the service center do not always listen to the requirements of the customer. The parts are not always available in the service center and can take up to two months to arrive.

In conclusion, the bike is a super hit and has almost everything a touring bike would need, making it a great buy for touring lovers. If the parts and accessories were available in a timely manner, it would get a 10/10 rating. With the current specifications and parts availability, I would rate it 7/10.

Bajaj Dominar is all about domination

Prabhanjan - | 3 years ago
helpful 10

Dominar satisfies the buyer mainly because of its comfort, then comes the rest. Main thing to note is that power and torque match is excellent. Then comes the mosaic styled headlights. Its touring ability and stress less drive mainly due to smoother gear shifts and slipper clutch is a boon in curving and heavy traffic. As everyone know we look more or consider negatives than positives to know the worth of a vehicle,the main negative is lack of gear indicator which indicates which gear you are in.I think it should be a must in 6 speed bikes. Mileage is not a big negative but its not good too and same about the looks. But the view from the rear gives you huge disappointment. But due to its price point and overall riding experience all its negative is neglected.

Best Features: Slipper clutch

Pros: comfort, due to slipper clutch, value for money, touring capability

Cons: mileage, due to huge variations between highway and city

Here it is! No Match for Dominar 400 at its price!

Rajdeep Singh | 4 years ago

Bajaj Dominar 400 is more like a hope for those who wish to enter the big bike segment and its clean INR 1.36 lakh price makes it easy for many, who were considering a 150 cc before, to enter the league. The introduction of LED lights, powerful 373 cc engine and ABS at such point is the best thing Bajaj Auto could have done in last few years. Dominar 400 has the best instrument console that Bajaj can offer currently and it even claims a better efficiency than the same engine which powers the KTM models. The 35 Nm of torque at just 6500 rpm means it it nothing less than a Royal Enfield and can pull anything with the same ease. The higher power means it can claim speed around 150 kmph while company just claims 148 kmph. It weighs 182 kg, which seems to much for a Bajaj bike as Pulsar have never been more than the 165 kg RS200. All in all, it can easily beat anything around its price segment

Best Features: Stuffed seats, LED lights, excessive torque

Pros: Price, engine, LED lights, stance

Cons: Excessive black parts, a bit of rear design, commuter style front view, high weight
