I admire bajaj listening to customers feedback and delivering a even better product. Update might be minuscule but it's still an update done mechanically as per customers need other than visual updates with old tech.

minuscule? damn son... what else you wanted? a twin cylinder or completely new bike? they literally changed everything that mattered...usd, engine power, engine tech, exhaust, gears, braking, Instrument clusters, color....
Too little, too late I guess.. Looks radical in this Kawasaki green. It's anyday a better buy than the ridiculously priced Duke250. Love the new machined mirrors!

Just because it is not a pulsar,it doesnt sell.Have it been renamed to pulsar cs400 it would have been a craze.

No. if it was named pulsar, it would have sold lesser. Pulsar is more like splendour now
As someone in the comments said previously, this is most probably the only Bajaj that I would buy... true VFM bike in a market with lots of bells and whistles.
I went Philippines last month...and Filipinos love Bajaj bikes.....they are crazy for bajaj bikes even though many other bikes who compete bajaj are available...I felt so proud to see their love for Indian bikes and India...and here we go and run after imported bikes...this bike is the best value for money and its our own Indian bike ....Love this bike
I'm a Royal Enfield Lover ... But the Dominar has always surprised me ... Great performance ..great looks and extremely Capable 🤗 And the performance figures are Amazing 40Bhp 35 Nm 😱 VFM motorcycle
Wow you guys are fast. I mean this has to be a first professionally shot review video of the 2019 Dominar 400. Good going Autocar India 👏
Dominar is much more badass than Duke 390, in my head it's like that Hooligan who has become calm over the years, grown bigger, but if you open it up...YOU know what a hooligan he really is. Duke 390, even with all that power and so less weight feels like it needs to prove itself. It has anger management (heating) issues, it's short tempered (frantic power delivery) and it doesn't really behave (doesn't go slow).

@@MrAdrafiq it's not about being an Indian or being dramatic about anything. The truth is that none of the motorcycles above 2 lacs are practical, we buy them for their individual "dramatic" character. If there's no character in a bike, nobody would pay a substantial amount for it. You don't like my expression of the Dominar? Go buy a Splendor, and get a dramaless bike.
I've been owning one since last March..such a VFM product with excellent touring capability...👌

Does it vibrates too much?
Green colour in dominar looks amazing... waiting to buy the green dominar 2019 edition..
It's out of place talking about the dominar not doing well due it being heavy, vibey, and having a not so good suspension when comparing it to the ancient relic known as RE classic 350. The problem was that the Dominar was not meant for the kind of people that get an RE classic. Those are the kind of people that just want to make noise and show off and not do much else with the bike. The Dominar is meant for those people who just want a precision tool to do the work, namely tour vast distances in less time and in comfort and that the Dominar excels at. It's a fantastic tourer (except for the small fuel tank). That's the market that Bajaj should have targeted right from the start. Bajaj is doing great with bringing in updates regularly as compared to some manufacturers whose updates are just skin deep or shall I say paint deep.
Booked Already! can't wait for it to launch..
Finally dominaar..... Good price & best value for money bike I love dominaar
Awesome narration and whole video is just informative and enjoyable
Good review I like the way u described the dominar with regard to its timing.
Dominar was always awesome bike but thinking of Indian buyers still stuck in 90s
...dominar 2019 is the best bike ever to be made by bajaj !!...finaly I have started liking this brand !! ...hats off to bajaj for such a great machine !! 😍😍😍😘😘😘😎😎

The review of the bike in itself does not over sell or over promise. Very crisp review indeed. Super composition and delivery. Hats off to you sir.
Such a pleasure listening to Ruman’s review! This is the first video review of his for me and it’s good to see his writing style is carried over to the video format as well. Been enjoying his reviews since BSM days and was no different now! :)

Good thing that Bajaj rectified the issues of the previous model. Not all of them were fix but at least now it has a gear indicator, usd forks and lastly, that green variant does look cool!
love my old dominar❤❤
Dominar is jack of all, master of none. Looks like commuter, has an engine from naked sport, tries to compete with classic old schools. Since its so confused about its targetted audience, audience is also confused about it. I think Bajaj should consider the engine the way they considered 200 cc from KTM earlier. Same engine, but 3 motorcycles equipped with the accessories for the targetted audience in mind.

Best presentation on dominar
when the Bajaj releases the new 2019 dominar 400 in the Philippines?
Has the coolant mixing with engine oil issue been fixed in this edition
Just loved the green colour.
Sir.. what is the exact top speed in 2019 dominor...by comparing to older one...wheather find any vibration at 6000rpm? ...
Love dominar 400 it's a value for money and it comes with awesome power
Finally everything else I wanted on the dominar
Finally a freaking gear indicator on a bajaj bike! Iam impressed!, fuel range, dohc setup, new color, all are good. Just wishing an adventure variant of this comes soon. Common bajaj, you can do it, if you think! Still even now adv bikes under 2 lakhs is still very limited, Himalayan is the only one and Bajaj can surely give some competition if they think so.
Been riding this bike for 6 months now. Surely, it is the best 2 wheel experience under 2.5 Lakh. #pockrocket
I imagine a retro looking dominor 😍
Loved that tiny Screen on the tank for gear positioning and I think the bike resembles Benellli a lot❤

@ autocar India plz mention the on road price ? & It's delivery starts from ?
Wow superb i love this bike
You were shouting near Ghahunje pune cricket stadium MCA right at 1:51 definitely
I find it to be perfect now after these changes. I would suggest Bajaj to make accessories for Dominar themselves also which are touring focused.
When it will reach dealers to buy
Bro, are you facing any engine guard quality issue?? Pls tell me if any other quality issues is there??
Did they raise the handlebar height? We heard rumors about it. If they did, could you provide some comparative figures?
I have a Dominar and I gotta admit I'm jealous!
Absolutely beautiful bikes
Very nice review Suggest me which bike Dominar 400 or Apache RR 310 is best in city and also in highway ? As u had reviewed both the bikes ...
Wow Looks better
Awesome look
Can we put on gear display for 2018 bike can you tell me plzzzz sir 😕😕😕😕😕😕😕☹️
I love the new colour scheme
The think I love about Dominor is that it looks big and rugged and the body panel looks goods, it's just the exhaust it sound weak
Dominar is definitely the best choice available at its price segment and even beyond. It is expensive, but fairly priced for what it offers. The bike is visually stunning and has a truly beastly mascular look with comfortable stance and riding position. It is insanely stable on the highways even at very high speeds beyond 110 kmph and inspires a lot of confidence. This bike is not the best choice for tight traffic conditions demanding sharp manouverability, yet it is an immense pleasure when you get open roads and chances to rev harder or accelerate. Overtaking with the Dominar is a bliss and it returns a decent mileage of 33-35 kmpl if driven smoothly. A speed range of 80-90 kmph in the 6th gear delivers the best mileage. I own a Dominar and I'd say it far far better than all the REs combined, except the Continental GT, which I haven't laid upon my hands yet. Definitely a must-own bike if you have money and good roads.
Looks good 🔥
I'm eagerly waiting for this beast I'll be the first one in our society to buy this and I'm very excited for it Bajaj u guys rock!❤️ Ps-i own 2 pulsar 220's

Bajaj should really follow the nexa, Honda big wing concept where they sell their higher end bikes at a premium showroom, imagine paying 2.6 lakhs for a bike and giving it to service next to a bunch of ct 100s
Is there an long term review of dominar 400?
Please review the Signals 350 ABS
Kudos to the new generation of #d400 feels proud to own one! #hyperrider #dominar #beast #meanmachine #ilovemydominar #bajaj #makeinindia
What about the pillion seat is now better r same as old rough and hard ?
"...if your eyes are somewhere near your chin." LOL 😂
Ek number🤩
Does it have raised handlebars unlike it's previous generation?
Wow great
Is this bike worth the money? Or there are other options I have? I don't want a classic look though (ex: RE, Jawa)
"keeping the number at a healthy.. umm.. threee.... " -- burst into laughter..
It is an amazing bike indeed!
looks awesome !
My dream bike
Did they do some changes with gearbox
looking good
Good upgrade now
I liked its bigger headlight casing. That is my personal test. Nope Dominar I still love you at 2019.
What are the other colour schemes available
I love dominor very much
