Bajaj Dominar 250 vs Yamaha MT 15 V2

Question 1

Q. What should I buy between Yamaha MT 15 V2 and R15S?

Answer

MT 15 V2 bike

Answer

Both the bikes are good in their forte. The updates as expected have made the new MT-15 a better bike. It looks more premium, handles better and the addition of a few new features is welcome. But we were expecting more from Yamaha! The dullness of the engine is disappointing and the lack of dual-channel ABS is just beyond any reasoning with this performance on tap. As for goodies such as a quick-shifter and traction control, they should have been offered as part of a premium variant. On the other hand, the Yamaha R15S remains one potent small-capacity supersport for beginners. In its version 3.0 guise, it has become sharper and more focused, making it great for sport riding or trac enthusiasts. However, the aggressive riding stance could cause discomfort if you intend to use the bike for daily commuting and the quality of components have also gone down. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Question 2

Q. Which bike is the best between, Yamaha MT-15 Version 2.0 or KTM 200 Duke?

Answer

Both the bikes are good in their forte. The design update has given the KTM 200 Duke a new lease of life. Also, the fact that the new BS6-compliant motor does not lose out on performance almost makes it feel like a win-win. That said, the substantial hike in price means it is now more expensive than larger motorcycles such as the Suzuki Gixxer 250. However, when it comes to thrills, the KTM 200 Duke delivers it in spades! On the other hand, The updates as expected have made the new MT-15 a better bike. It looks more premium, handles better and the addition of a few new features is welcome. But we were expecting more from Yamaha! The dullness of the engine is disappointing and the lack of dual-channel ABS is just beyond any reasoning with this performance on tap.

Question 3

Q. Which bike is best between, Dominar or Pulsar N250?

Answer

N250 for budget ,mileage, cheaper maintainance D250 for long distance touring ,dual channel abs

Answer

Both the bikes are good in their forte. Apart from its accessible price tag, the Dominar 250 does one thing right -- it is fit to purpose. The 250cc motor may feel boring on the KTM, but it works beautifully on the Dominar especially when you combine it with its comfortable touring ergonomics. It truly deserves the ‘sports tourer’ tag. So while Bajaj might pitch it as the entry-level Dominar, we think the 250 is the Dominar in its perfect form. On the other hand, with a powerful motor and comfortable ride quality, the Pulsar N250 is a good option in the 250cc, but the Pulsar NS200 is cheaper and offers better tech. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.

Question 4

Q. I'm confused between NS200 and the Dominar 250. Looking for a bike for city and touring use. Thinking about NS200 because it matches my power needs in a bike but in comfort the Dominar always wins. Any review on this would help. Just not sure about the comfort of NS 200.

Answer

The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 was always seen as an affordable alternative if you were in the market for a sporty streetfighter. As for the comfort, right from the moment you sit on it and reach for the bars, you get a lovely sense of command over the motorcycle. The seat cushioning is firm but absorbent, the texture is grippy and the slim tank allows you to straddle the bike more efficiently. Even the taut suspension isn’t that much of a bother. On the other hand, the Dominar 250 offers a good price to power ratio and brilliant ride quality. The 250cc motor may feel boring on the KTM, but it works beautifully on the Dominar especially when you combine it with its comfortable touring ergonomics. It truly deserves the ‘sports tourer’ tag.

Question 5

Q. Which one is best between, Dominar 250, Yamaha FZ 25 and Hness CB350 for occasional tours, quality and refined engine.

Answer

As per your requirement, we would suggest you go for Honda H’ness CB350. The gorgeous design is one of only two things that are really old-school about this bike, the other being the sonorous exhaust note. Honda has managed to capture the aura of a retro roadster but with a twist of modernity, which makes the new H’ness that much more attractive. It looks the part, is a comfortable bike, and has loads of features. Also, being a Honda, quality, and reliability will be of the highest degree. H’ness is mighty impressive with its refinement and is a good bike to hustle in the city. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.

Question 6

Q. Which one to choose Mojo or Dominar 250? Also can we get Mojo's parts available as like Dominar 400?

Answer

Selecting the right bike would depend on several factors such as your budget preference on the segment, features required, engine options, brand preference, etc. Mahindra Mojo could be a good option if you are looking for a fine tourer with premium underpinnings like upside-down forks and Pirelli tyres. The newest model gets conventional forks and MRF tyres but that does not hamper the Mojo’s touring credentials much. The riding position is upright and the seat is comfortable enough for long jaunts. Despite its oddball looks, the Mojo has proven to be a capable tourer. On the other hand, apart from its accessible price tag, the Dominar 250 does one thing right -- it is fit to purpose. The 250cc motor may feel boring on the KTM, but it works beautifully on the Dominar especially when you combine it with its comfortable touring ergonomics. It truly deserves the ‘sports tourer’ tag. So while Bajaj might pitch it as the entry-level Dominar, we think the 250 is the Dominar in its perfect form. Mahindra Mojo is powered by a 294cc Liquid Cooled, 4 Stroke, SI Engine, 1 Cylinder; DOHC engine that generates a max power of 25.72 PS @ 7300 rpm and a max torque of 25.96 Nm @ 6000 rpm. While the Bajaj Dominar 250 is equipped with a 248.77 cc Single Cylinder, 4 strokes, DOHC, 4 valve, Liquid Cooled, Twin Spark, FI that produces a max power of 27 PS @ 8500 rpm and a max torque of 23.5 Nm @ 6500 rpm. For the availability of spare parts, you have to get in touch with the authorized service center. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.
