Beberapa minggu lalu, sebuah kedai kustom di Filipina, MC Customs telah mengubah suai sebuah Bajaj Dominar D400 kepada jentera scrambler.

Kali ini, seorang pemilik Bajaj Dominar telah mengubah suai motosikalnya menjadi jentera ADV.

Antara pengubahsuaian yang dilaksanakan adalah penghadang angin yang tinggi, bar hendal yang lebih lebar termasuk pemasangan riser bar hendal.

Bagaimanapun, perubahan paling ketara adalah penggunaan tayar jenis jejari (spoke wheels) bersaiz 19 inci depan dan 18 inci belakang.

Penggunaan tayar tersebut membuatkan jarak kelegaan tanah lebih tinggi di samping melengkapkan elemen ADV.

Pemilik tersebut turut menukar sprocket bagi memperbaiki nisbah gear namun tiada sebarang ubah suai dilakukan terhadap bahagian enjin.

Difahamkan, Bajaj telah mengikat kerjasama dengan Autologue Custom bagi penghasilkan kit ADV untuk model Dominar dan kit tersebut boleh didapati di setiap pengedar Bajaj di India.

Mungkin ada peluang untuk pemilik Dominar di Malaysia mendapatkan kit tersebut?- CarToq

The 2020 Bajaj Dominar 250 has just made its official public debut in India yesterday and it looks to be one very respectable 250cc sport-touring model for the masses. Priced at Rs 1.60 lakh (around RM9,163 after direct conversion), it’s the perfect beginner’s bike for those looking to go the extra mile. (more…)

The presence of Bajaj here in Malaysia has been an outstanding one ever since its first collaboration work with national motorcycle manufacturer, Modenas. With several successful models currently available like the Modenas Dominar D400, the Indian market will soon see one particularly new model that we too are excited about – the 2020 Bajaj Dominar 250. (more…)

  • Bajaj have released the TVC for the 2019 Bajaj Dominar 400.

  • The 373.3cc engine now produces 39.4 hp and 35 Nm of torque.

  • There are also a host of other upgrades.

Bajaj have released the TVC for the 2019 Bajaj Dominar 400.

The highlights of the video include achievements of the Dominar 400, including the Polar Odyssey where three riders rode from the Artic to Antartica. The adventure covered some 51,000 km through 3 continents and took 99 days to complete. Other major adventures were also shown including the Dominar Trans-Siberian Odyssey, Dominar ASEAN Odyssey, and Dominar Austral-Asian.

The 2019 Dominar 400 has been updated further over its predecessor. The main headlamp features split LED banks, the forks are now 43mm diameter upside-down units, and the rear monoshock is softer for more touring comfort.

Its 373.3cc single-cylinder engine is uprated to produce 40 PS (39.4 hp) at 8,650 RPM and 35 Nm of torque at 7,000 RPM. Those figures take the bike into the KTM 390 Duke territory. Spent gases exit through a new exhaust system with dual silencers.

Apart from those features, a slipper is also added for smoother downshifting and corner entries.

On the electronics front, the split-LCD screens are retained, and incorporates mileage and gear position indicator, so forth.

The Auroral Green colour shown in the TVC is new, too.

When will it show up in Malaysia? We will know soon! Also, stay tuned for the next Dominar “Explore the Unexplored” rides in Malaysia.

  • Priced at just RM13,788, the Modenas Dominar has proven to be a success story in Malaysia.
  • It is also hugely popular all around the world as it offers incredible value for money.
  • Comfortable and powerful, the Modenas Dominar is also incredibly well built as the photos below have proven.

When buying a bike, build quality is probably not up there on the priority list. Power, comfort, design, price and reliability will probably be the focus, and then build quality. But admittedly not always in that order.

Well, every once in a while though comes a bike that seemingly does it all and does it well. Enter the Bajaj Dominar 400, known locally in Malaysia as the Modenas Dominar.

It is a bike we rode in India last year and grew to be particularly fond of. It has a lively 373cc engine that gives you better power output than most bikes in its class. It also comes with Brembo brakes and an adjustable rear monoshock suspension. It features an LED headlight and a smooth-shifting 6-speed gearbox, in short, there is nothing much to complain about when it comes to the Dominar.

And then there is the build quality. Now quality is usually subjective as it is usually difficult to assess how well-built a bike is. Touch and feel is usually the only way to tell. But not anymore.

These photos have been circulating around the internet showing a Dominar that was rear ended by a truck. And as you can see, the bike won. If this is not a testament to the brilliant build quality of the Dominar, then we’re not sure what would be a good testament.

This accident supposedly took place in Kerala, India, and though we’re not sure who the photos belong to, we’re glad he or she posted them online. As is clearly visible here, the bike is stuck in the front grille and the front bumper of the truck, and that’s what is holding the bike upright.

Perhaps the owner got really lucky, but credit is due where it is deserved and we tip our hat to Bajaj for their solid build quality. Well done.
