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. Read More
i like yamaha fascino cause it has a awesome styling scooty and comfortable, it has good fuel efficiency more than that because of stock availablity in nearby showroom reliability for long term use purpose. So far the ride is good negative spaint quality of the scooty is bad as it has rust on fastener of cooling within 2 week may be because of i live on a high humidity area it has engine vibration on footrest on 70 speed not much noticable, bit it has foot board not satisfying good bootspace lacks a glove box positives fuel efficiency is top class, good performance lightweight scooty, helps in traffic has good riding feel if you dont go above 70 enough seat space, good headlight, good design. Recommendable scooty for those who are looking for a good fuel efficient and comfort scooty, comfortable but i wish it has more foot space not recommended for those who only expect powerfull performance not recommended for tall riders and who expect a best of value scooty.
