                  Value for money bike. I think bajaj all bike is value for money but this one is unbeatable. I love this bike and I also tried bajaj pulsar n400z, this bike is also unbeatble but dominar 400 is now my all time favourite bike. If I next purchase a bike then it should be bajaj only. Thank you bajaj.

                  Value for money bike
                  Value for money bike as it have around 40bhp power and look amazing when riding on highways. I bought it in 2018 and have done 80k. Bike have good road presence and led headlight give it a beast look. Bike is amazing when ride on highways. Maintenance cost is little higher as of poor service centre as they randomly guess about the fault. I went to them 7-8 time for coolant leak issue but they failed to repair it but every time they deliver me the bike confidently saying they have repaired it, enjoy the ride. If you looking for highway, daily commuting or for long ride of upto 300-500 km in a day, you can buy this bike at this price range under 2.5 lakh but only if u have any local mechanic who can service this bike and parts available.

                  I love this machine, always eager to take long ride with this monster machine. Best, powerful and stylish machine in this segment. I love it. Amazing and comfortable feel for long ride but mileage is a little bit disappointed, otherwise everything is best. I feel proud to be owner to this amazing machine.

                  Bike is made for speedy pips. If you like sporty look, you should buy this bike. On highway, it goes very smooth. Overall my experience with this bike is great, if your budget is more then also take all the safety gear.

                  Over all good bike and also it's all versions
                  Riding quality is too good. Very huge and look is too brilliant. Just 155 cc but still beat any 200 cc bike. Engine is too reliable. Average is very good compare to other bikes. It gives me 40km per litre mileage and this is too good because it's a sports bike and still it give 40 kmpl mileage. I like it.

                  A good sports bike
                  This bike is meant for our age group especially for age group between 18 to 25 years. Going for long drive on this bike will feel like participating in bike race as pick is so good and balance is also very good. Pick up of this bike is very good and you will not feel tired after having long drives. And balance of this bike is very phenomenal and due to which chances of skidding is very less even on slippery roads. Yes, I recommend this bike specially for youngsters who like to ride a racing bike. This has amazing pick up and drives smoothly even on mud and bumpy roads. Though the mileage is low and drives smoothly.

                  Driven by single person only
                  Bike's performance is an excellent, powerful pickup, starts easily, one handed used only, driven 7700 km only within 3 and half years. Overall experience is memorable, sound is normal, highway experience is totally amazing, driving R15S vs other bikes is totally different, average can be maintained if we drive well.

                  The best bike of segment
                  Its a stylish bike. Very good looking and powerful with a muscular body and heavy duty. I love the bike since beginning, my dream bike and very solid bike. Better in every aspect in mileage, great in looks and performance. It's very sharp looking and comfortable for long rides also a good mileage provider, good acceleration and pickup, fast, smooth, tension free riding and less maintenance bike for sure. In this price range, it's the best. The best bike. I would definitely recommend to young guys, not for old grandpa's, it gonna make you feel royal and elegant, very strong presence and that's why I am recommending this bike to all of my friends.
