As per the latest spy pics, Bajaj Dominar is going to launch soon with major mechanical upgrades. The power cruiser has been spotted with these upgrades. It copies some elements from KTM Duke 390.
Bajaj Dominar 400 is currently the most powerful Bajaj bike. It is basically a power cruiser. It classifies as a sports bike as well as a cruiser. With its powerful 400cc engine, it competes with the likes of Mahindra Mojo XT 300, Duke 390, Royal Enfield Classic 350 and more such bikes. The bike was launched in December 2016. Though it is not a much-demanded bike but is quite popular in the market. The main reason for its demand being low is because people are not familiar with the concept of premium lifestyle motorcycles.
