Hey I went downstairs to periodically start my D400 that has been sitting idle throughout MCO.

This time I decided to take it for a spin around the parking floor of my condo.... and discovered that the front brake has stopped working!

The brake lever felt dead - it would squeeze & bottom out. No braking at all.

My bike only has 1400km on the clock.

Anybody has the same prob?

May have something to do with ABS.
Need to service, or push the brake pads back in and pump it back out.

More discount

may be hydraulic not function for long time. you may need to pump often until the brake fluid start flowing smoothly.

Ya... last week since we're allowed to leave home, first thing I did was hop on my bike. Spent an hour going around the parking lot, forcing the brake until the brake pressure started to come back.

I think it was the ABS.

Once it felt OK, I took it for a long ride up and down MRR2 and it felt normal again.

Lesson learned - ini motor, ABS bukan boleh percaya sangat.

maybe to finish current stock before introducing new dominar 2020

Mine also. Mine feel a bit kosong tapi sekejap je ok. Right now can go work daily, brakes function like normal

I doubt they will bring the new Dominar, due to the latest cooperation with Kawasaki.. they might substitute it entirely with Ninja 250 since it has more market appeal due to B2 Lesen compliant.

Nothing new for Rojak knockdown assembly Company Modenas..

SYM - Kymco - Kawasaki - BAJAJ - China Bike (those new Kriss)

I think so too, but it's a shame because the upgraded Dominar looks like a very good improvement to the current one. I hope at least modenas does a 400 cc bike with kawasaki. We'll see, no news so far.

Bini aku komplen, Sabtu hari tu ride balik hari gi Melaka bontot dia kebas 2 hari x hilang.

Bergetar semacam motor ni. Aku ingat nnt senang aku nak gi modify seat cushion kasi empuk mcm sofa...

single cylinder mah.

Dominar is a nice looking bike with an underwhelming engine. Needs at least a twin to do justice to its sporty looks. 400cc is good but just too underpowered and a single at that too...

because its design for touring, save fuel and maintenance.
its not sports bike.

Bajaj learn from overtuning KTM duke 390 engine which the 1st gen always giving problem.. also to compensate the dirty and low quality fuel sold in the sub continent.

Ya, for 'hyper riding'...a term Bajaj coined because they can't position it for anything else. But if it is taken for just that, then I guess it would be good enough...

BUT, IMHO, it should not have to use the excuse of 'touring, save fuel and maintenance' just because it is overall underwhelming. It should have respectable performance and not let kapchais embarrass it.

IMHO, they should learn and progress. Seems like they learnt and took the regress route instead to save themselves the trouble. But for santai riders, it is good enough I guess. Maybe I expected so much more from it. To me personally, I was disappointed because it looked so good but didn't hv the oomph to match the super looks.

Broder.. Road in India (where most of the R&D happened) 120 km/h is consider a high speed already...

This bike will give you good vibrations....

Ya lah. Hahahahaha! Haizzz, they should tap on their partner Modenas here to suss out what Malaysians want. I think that if they actually gave it a bit more respectable performance, it would have sold more. Building a 400 just for santai doesn't make sense as perception is that it should at least not let kapchai and some 250 whack it lah. Malu and no face. If like that, the smaller Pulsar 200 is good enough already. At least if kena whack by kapchai and other 250, can still find a good excuse. For a 400...I dunno where to hide my face! That's why I don't own it anymore ya
