Hi Autocar team. I booked a Bajaj Dominar 250 on March 9th from a dealership in Jammu. After six weeks of waiting and vague answers, I personally visited the showroom to demand an update. They showed me their system. The dealership is actively applying for the order, but the issue is entirely from Bajaj's end. The factory is simply not accepting the order. I am incredibly frustrated. Are there currently known production halts or severe supply chain issues for the Dominar 250? Any advice on how I can escalate this directly with Bajaj corporate to get a straight answer on my dispatch date?

The Bajaj Dominar 250 is not a high-volume product for Bajaj, and therefore, its production process isn't likely to be as speedy as something popular, say, a Platina. To expedite matters, you should ask your dealer for three things (preferably in writing or on e-mail): your order ID, the current status with a tentative dispatch week, and whether your colour is on hold. A worthwhile option worth considering is to source a bike from an alternative nearby dealer.
If that also doesn't help you, put a short, polite post on Bajaj's official social media handles across various platforms. Also, mark the dealership’s General Manager and the Bajaj area sales manager, so you tick all the boxes.

Considering Delhi's current EV policy in 2026, would it be a wise decision to buy and register a new petrol motorcycle in Delhi? I am concerned about how future policy changes could affect its resale value. Would you recommend buying a petrol bike now or waiting?

If you are considering purchasing a petrol two-wheeler, then you should go ahead with your decision. Over time, your resale will, of course, be impacted by this decision, but that will be quite a few years down the line, and by then your needs and preferences will likely change, which means that drop is unlikely to affect you to a great extent.

I own a BS3 Bajaj Pulsar RS200. Since my running is quite low, should I continue maintaining and keeping it, or would it be better to buy a new bike? I also wanted to ask whether switching from regular E20 petrol to XP100 for my RS200 is worth considering. I am currently using E20 fuel and getting only around 25 kmpl. Will XP100 improve the bike's performance or mileage enough to justify the higher cost?

If your running is low and your Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is otherwise in good condition, there is no compelling reason to replace it. As for fuel, switching to the much more expensive XP100 is not worth it. The RS200 is not a high-compression performance engine that would benefit from 100-octane fuel, and you will not see any meaningful improvement in performance or efficiency. The lower mileage you are seeing on E20 fuel is expected, as ethanol blends generally reduce fuel economy. The best approach is to continue using the RS200, maintain it well, and accept the slightly lower mileage as a normal consequence of E20 fuel. There is no need to spend extra on premium fuel or a new bike unless you have a specific reason to upgrade.

I’m confused between the Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro and the Tiger 900 Rally Pro (Alpine vs Desert Edition). This will be my first superbike after upgrading from a 220cc motorcycle. I’m 175 cm tall (with shoes) and have a 30-inch inseam. My primary use will be daily city commuting, weekend rides, and occasional long-distance touring across states. I also plan to travel frequently with my wife and luggage. I test-rode the Tiger 900 Rally Pro, and even with the seat at 860 mm and the rear preload at its lowest setting, I couldn’t flat-foot the bike. Only the balls of both my feet touched the ground, which made handling the bike in heavy city traffic and on uneven roads a bit intimidating. On the highway, however, it felt excellent. Given my height, riding needs, and concerns about low-speed confidence in city conditions, which model would you recommend - the Tiger 900 GT Pro or the Rally Pro? The Tiger 900 GT/GT Pro was not available for a test ride. I have no off-roading experience, nor do I plan to ride off-road. My priority is a motorcycle that can comfortably handle the worst Indian roads, including potholes and broken surfaces, while allowing me to maintain a decent pace. I want a bike that offers plush ride quality and excellent insulation from rough roads. I’m confident that the Tiger 900 Rally Pro delivers this level of comfort, but I’m not sure if the GT or GT Pro can match it. Considering my height, my usage (mostly city, highways, touring with a pillion and luggage), and the fact that I won’t be riding off-road, would the Tiger 900 GT Pro be the better choice, or is the Rally Pro still worth considering? Please help me decide which one I should go for.

To begin with, of all the middleweight road-biased ADVs available, the Triumph Tiger 900 GT (or even the better-equipped Alpine edition) is one of the most complete packages when it comes to being an all-rounder. Coming to your particular query, the Tiger 900 GT will blitz through bad roads while insulating the passengers from the jolts. The lower seat height and suspension travel of the 900 GT will be perfect for you, and since you are a tarmac-biased rider, you have no need for the 900 Rally Pro. Even if you someday decide to venture off-road, the Tiger 900 GT is a very capable machine, and you don't need the higher Rally variant to begin with.We'd recommend you opt for the Alpine edition over the standard 900 GT because it comes with all the accessories that most owners end up paying more for anyway.

My monthly running is around 500 km. Please suggest the best electric scooter for my needs.

Verified

With a daily run of roughly 20km, you can go for one of the smaller battery pack variants among the vast electric scooter marketplace. Specifically, the TVS iQube 2.2 which may be an entry level model but the experience it gives you is far from entry level. It has brisk performance, good storage, a decent feature-set and pretty quick charging too. Make sure to take a test ride of the iQube before you make your decision to see if it fits you well.

I'm upgrading from a Honda Hornet CB160 and am considering the Harley-Davidson X440 T or the Honda H'ness CB350. My riding is mostly in the city, but I can stretch my budget if the bike is worth the extra money.

Since your usage is mostly in the city, the added performance that the Harley-Davidson X440T brings over the Honda CB350 H'ness is unlikely to make a big enough difference to justify the big price difference between the two. Additionally, the Honda bike will also return much better fuel economy owing to its smaller, more efficient engine. Both are on a similar level when it comes to comfort, so the CB350 H'ness is the more logical buy between the two. Take a test ride of both to see which one you're leaning towards more before you make a decision.

We already have a Royal Enfield Classic 350 at home, and I want to buy something different. My daily commute is around 50km, travelling between home and the office. I don't enjoy long-distance touring, and my budget is around 3 lakh. I'm confused between the Royal Enfield Meteor 350, Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450, Harley-Davidson X440 Vivid, and the Triumph Speed 400.

Since you already have a RE Classic 350 at home, we'd recommend you remove the Meteor 350 and Harley-Davidson X440 from your shortlist because these bikes will feel quite similar to your Classic. The 350cc Triumph Speed 400 and Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 will offer a more engaging riding experience with more performance and features on tap, and are the ones we'd advise you to choose between. Of the two, the Triumph bike has the more mellow nature, but it will still feel like a good step up from your Classic in terms of performance and handling. The Guerrilla, on the other hand, is quite excitable and of the two, this is definitely the more fun machine. Its suspension is a little taut, which enables it to have very engaging handling, but over bad roads, you will feel a little more of the road surface coming through to your back. The RE also has a crisper, more tech-laden TFT display, whereas the Triumph uses a simple digi-analogue unit.Take a test ride of both before you make your decision, since they are quite different to ride.
