With the official launch just around the corner, the first walkaround and ride review of the 2019 Bajaj Dominar is out. It also gets a new white colour.
2019 Bajaj Dominar is all set to be launched and we expect a date in early February. It has been officially revealed in the TVC ad and the wait is just for new prices.
A Youtuber has done the first ride review of the 2019 Bajaj Dominar. The video dates back to September 2018, when the shooting for the TVC began. The video shows the bike being ridden in Ladakh.
In the video, the reviewer says that it gets a new instrument console and a small digital screen on the fuel tank. 2019 Bajaj Dominar sports new USD forks, dual-exhaust port, repositioned catalytic converter and revised Rear-view mirrors.

In the ride review, he says that the 2019 Bajaj Dominar delivers less vibration and is a bit refined than earlier. The 373cc engine borrowed from Duke 390 deliver heavy vibrations in the current Dominar.
Along with that, it gets a repositioned front disc brake, revised crash guards and a longer rear fender. Other than the above mentioned changes, the bike remains the same.
Mechanically, the new Dominar gets the same engine, but there is a possibility of a BS-6 engine underneath.

The 373cc liquid-cooled engine will continue to deliver 35 BHP and 35 Nm of peak torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch.
Since it is already updated with ABS, it would not get any changes in the braking. Although, the reviewer says that the overall braking has been improved. It is equipped with a dual-channel ABS as standard fitment.
Also, 2019 Bajaj Dominar has now been spied in Sparkling White colour option. At the time of launch, a White colour option was available, which was soon discontinued.
