Q. Which one is the best Bajaj Dominar 400, Himalayan, Classic 350 and MT-15 Version 2.0?
  • All the bikes are best in their own forte. The Bajaj Dominar 400 BS6 makes for a great urban motorcycle, as well as packing in the performance and comfort to make occasional touring a breeze. On the other hand, Royal Enfield Himalayan Motor has (nearly) retained its output and feels just as quick, despite meeting BS6. Certain components look and feel more rugged and premium. Truckloads of suspension travel and ground clearance, as always. and Royal Enfield Classic 350 revised ergonomics make it more comfortable. The new chassis makes it easier to ride in traffic. The bike feels a lot more refined now. Moreover, The updates to the Yamaha MT-15 V2 have definitely improved its handling but the lack of dual-channel ABS and bottom-end performance, coupled with the high asking price make it a pricey proposition.

This being the flagship Bajaj product, it’s held together by sturdy underpinnings consisting of a perimeter frame suspended on a 43mm USD fork and preload-adjustable monoshock. The rear swingarm is a stamped unit. Anchorage is provided by a sizable 320mm/230mm disc brake combo assisted by dual-channel ABS.
