Bajaj has really outdone itself with the pricing of the Dominar, with all of the new updates coming in at a hike of just Rs 11,000. The motorcycle costs Rs 1.74 lakh now, and this is where things get interesting. At this price, it undercuts similarly powered rivals and specced motorcycles by a huge margin. The closest model to it is the lower-powered KTM 250 Duke (Rs 1.93 lakh), followed by the TVS Apache RR 310 (Rs 2.23 lakh), Honda CB300R (Rs 2.41 lakh), KTM 390 Duke (Rs 2.44 lakh), Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 (Rs 2.50 lakh onwards) and the BMW G 310 R (Rs 2.99 lakh) (all prices, ex-showroom, Delhi). But it’s not just the price. Thanks to the updated motor and suspension, the Dominar is now a more competent motorcycle, so much so that we would say it’s the best highway machine under Rs 2 lakh.
